LoglineA distress call from Lt. Noonien-Singh compels Spock to disobey orders and take the USS Enterprise and its crew into disputed space, risking renewed hostilities with the Klingons in a bid to aid their shipmate.

Written by Henry Alonso Myers & Akiva Goldsman

Directed by Chris Fisher


A note about episode discussions on startrek.website

Right now, the plan is to post the /c/startrek discussion when the episode drops on Thursdays. Once the global community has had some time to watch and digest what they've seen, the /c/daystrominstitute discussion will go live on Sundays for a more in-depth analysis. This is subject to change as we evaluate what works best for the community as a whole.

Finally had time to watch it tonight and I thought it was great.

I feel like what seemed corny or off was on purpose. Spock is on a learning curve with his emotions/duty conundrum and we certainly felt that.

Looking forward to next week!

That was my interpretation too. I'm cautiously optimistic!

I also enjoyed this week's episode. I don't care for how close Spock and nurse Chapel are, but ok that's fine I guess lol

I hope to see more cooking.

Before season 1, I was sceptical about what I'd heard of the direction they were taking with Chapel, but Jess Bush's depiction of her has been one of my favourite things about the show so far. I'm happy to see more of her and Spock working their way through this.

After like the first episode with Chapel where I was a little ~~ ehh, I really do like how the character has progressed. I feel like this is the one place where I'm really liking the character changes.
