I'll nominate Space Seed, since no one else has.

The best episode is City on the Edge of Forever, without a doubt.

However, my personal favourite episode is Arena.

Balance of Terror for me. The very first episode I've ever seen of Star Trek.

Was that featured in "The way to Babylon", with those space Rasfatarians?
