Also, this is one rare case where a medical emergency turned out to have positive effects, as Walter Koenig was originally scheduled to play Knight #2, and if he hadn't had his heart attack and had done so, Bester would never have existed.

Really? I didn't know that. But Bester appearing in Mind War---was Walter Koenig not originally cast for that role?
