* EverybodysDeadDave: Spock's flat delivery leaves no ambiguity in his finding that Bele and Lokai's people have been entirely wiped out:
-->'''Bele''': My people... all dead?\\
'''Spock''': Yes, Commissioner. All of them.\\
'''Lokai''': No one alive?\\
'''Spock''': None at all, sir.

Deleted the complaint about them chasing eachother for 50K years. They're long-lived aliens which are rare but not unheard of in Star Trek. You might as well complain about Spock's telepathy being unrealistic or the warp drive being impossible and the replies are Conversation In The Main Page.
Deleted You Can Never Go Home Again because the trope isn't present in any way.

** The final chase scene depicting Lokai and Bele running through the corridors of the Enterprise is mixed with stock footage of burning cities filmed after [=WWII=] aerial bombing raids, as each visualizes the destruction of their shared home planet. Fred Freiberger stated, "We ran a little short on that show which is why it ended with a chase that went on forever. I thought it was a hell of a creative solution."

** Bele claims to have been chasing Lokai for ''fifty thousand years'', which is utterly gratuitous and raises a lot of questions that never get answered; there's no reason it couldn't have been, say, fifty years.[[note]]This may be a hold-over from an early draft where the two aliens, instead of being bi-colored, would have resembled opposed figures from Earth's mythology, presumably with the implication that they'd been by Earth at some point in the distant past.[[/note]]
** On the other hand Star Trek had established other long lived races.

* PlotHole: If Cheron is in uncharted space, how does Kirk know about it, and how can Sulu determine the ship is plotting a course towards it?
** Kirk mentions that Cheron is generically located in the "southernmost" (on the up-down axis, as opposed to those in the same plane as the galactic arms) part of the galaxy. Presumably any deviation from Starbase 4 in that direction, ''especially'' given the ludicrous speeds the Cheron natives can accelerate the ''Enterprise'' to, would be obvious.

* SlaveRace: Lokai's "people" are said to have been this. Notably, Bele doesn't bother to deny it, simply claiming that slavery had been abolished thousands of years prior (which, given the claim that Bele has been chasing Lokai for 50,000 years, might make it a fairly recent occurrence by their standards).

* VillainHasAPoint: While he is clearly using it as a cop out to his own failings as an individual, Bele is right that it's unrealistic to expect utopia in a day, especially with so much bad blood still going on.
