Only thing I enjoyed of the episode is that Ortega and Scotty didn’t have any romantic involvement, and at the end it’s only a friendship thing.
Jokes were not funny, and when the peace negotiations are going down the tube, then a random thing happens and all is good and everybody are friends. Make Pike fail the peace treaty, he is stoned, sober him up and somehow make him fix it. Will be a better thing that a explosion is now a peace sign or whatever.
You have not experienced Bonnie Tyler until you have heard her in the original Klingon.
I’m not sure there’s a lot to say about this one. I enjoyed it. The jokes didn’t land quite as well as they should have, but I have to take some responsibility for watching a stoner comedy at 9 am.
The Spirk enthusiasts should be pretty happy, though.
