Did not like that episode much
- I still don't care about the Klingon's at all, so that already puts a minus on this episode column. I hope this was the last of them, as the whole plotline seems to have come to an end and there's not really anything interesting there, unless they actually want us to just watch Klingon politics play out (yuck, pls no)
- I guess Voq/Ash is going to be on the Emperor show they are making(?)
- That baby plot was pointless, why did we even get that?
- I do not like where the plot with Spock is going. It's so stupid and completely retconning everything we know about Spock from the original series
- How Amanda insisted that Spock was raised as Vulcan and she wasn't allowed to show him affection and how Spock was punished if he showed emotions... even though we saw him have that tantrum with Michael came to their house and his dad just stood there smiling at him. Whut?
- Also how does that fit with what Sarek said about wanting Michael to teach Spock empathy and feelings and friendship and all that???
- The implication made in this episode that Spock is and has been very unstable and having severe lack of empathy and whatever and his mom being all "maybe he's a psychopath now" like wtf are they doing to Spock???
- I mean I joked about how the kid!Spock looked like a serial killer, but this is just getting ridiculous.
Things I liked:
- I guess the plot with Tilly is okay, or I just like Tilly, so watching her is fun
- Pike is still nice
- Michael actually going to him and trusting him with the medical file (cool, but too soon maybe?)
