Spock explores his identity while Captain Pike cozies up to his captors. Join your plank-walking hosts as they discuss radical intra-episode tonal shifts, a delightful - if at times jarring - return to classic Star Trek campiness, and the potential peculiarities of Vulcan sexuality.
Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!
Next week: We continue our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds with "The Elysian Kingdom"
