Did they swap La’an’s and Erica’s characters? Now Erica has Gorn PTSD and La’an is the easygoing one? At least the latter seemed like a very abrupt character development.
And can the SNW costume designers finally get an Emmy Award please? Or all the awards for that matter? The costumes in this series have been amazing since day 1, and the second episode (particularly the wedding scene) is no exception.
Also, that cameo at the end was chef’s kiss.
I’m not really looking forward to another season of Gorn PTSD. We just did that with La’an. We don’t need to rehash it. It’s boring.
Time will tell if they justify it.
I did love the costumes in this episode, although I also felt like they were a little too present-day. But if they’re playing Wham I guess that’s what they were going for.
I do look forward to seeing Erika do more than just “Fly the ship,” but I really wish it was literally anything other than the exact same thin La’an has been dealing with. She’s talked about being on the Klingon front a lot, why not tie it into that. I do like seeing a slightly more chill La’an and really think her and Spock pair together well as friends, but I do hope they don’t throw in more romance at spock with her.

One of the writers talked about it on Open Pike Night and said it was a deliberate choice to give La’an and Erica opposite trajectories from last season, where now La’an is finally able to move on from her trauma with the Gorn while Erica is dealing with it for the first time.
