Not only Americans watch Star Trek. I know for sure it was T'Pau from the episode "Amok Time". His fiance was T'pring but she wanted the challenge because she wanted to marry Stonn and she chose Kirk to be her champion and there had to be a fight to the death. However, since McCoy was present he was able to inject Kirk with a trioxide compound that simulated death. As a result, Spock's Pon Farr, or Blood Fever was resolved.
Do I get the job?
