It's sad that I recognize the references to both episodes (though I
wouldn't be able to id the specific episode numbers).


Google helped.

[It's the same episode]
The crew are turned into grapefruit sized styrofoam Buckyballs ...all except
a few of ship's key personnel. The (non-human) aliens are planning to take
the ship back to the Kelvin Empire in the Andromeda Galaxy. Inhabiting human
form ("vessels") opens the Kelvins up to human frailties.

Scotty, not Kirk, saves the day.
