The big problem with the joke here is it’s totally the wrong moment. They’ve disobeyed orders and “stolen” the enterprise but haven’t actually gotten away yet… don’t just sit there messing around!

I’d normally agree with you but I don’t think they were trying to fool the audience in this case. It was more about showing Spock’s emotional reaction.
Still, there’s better ways of showing that than the almost dying trope.

Nurse Chapel is in TOS - so there wasn’t really any risk that she was going to die here.
Really glad to find this place, looking forward to being part of the community,
Regarding donations though: Would you be able to share details on costs and how any Patreon money is spent?
There was Areel Shaw from S1 TOS - Court Martial
Just fresh in my mind as I watched that episode not too long ago (slowly making my way through TOS)
Enjoyed pretty much everything in this episode except the magic super steroids. The sequence went on for so long.. I assumed that I had forgotten something from last series because there’s no way they would have had this to hand the whole time and never thought to use it during any one of the many life and death emergencies?
That aside. Loved the rest of the episode and looking forward to where things go from here (plus really really happy to have weekly Trek again!)
Yep, I like this. There’s plenty of room for lots of Klingons styles… makes the Star Trek universal feel bigger
