I liked it, especially after last weeks episode which had a obvious plot twist and felt like it tried too hard.


This one was a lot of fun as the cast got to ham things up, especially Mount and Chong who were clearly having a ton of fun playing opposite their character.



Of course the episode in the end is about heartbreak and making a decision. Sometimes with parents or so I'm told they need to make decisions about their children that represent a major sacrifice for them. This epsiode was all about that heartbreaking choice for M'Benga.


But where does this leave that characters arc, is there more story to tell? We know he's not long for the Star Trek verse.


By the way, one of the funniest things was this overwhelming critism of Anson Mounts Pike hair. The response? Give him the worst most ridiculous hair possible.


Solid episode, that tracks to one of the great things about Trek in that you'll get a zany episode like this and you know its followed by tragedy. What's coming next week?
