Trivia
Depicts the first meeting in the prime timeline between [this universe's] James T. Kirk and [this universe's] Spock. Kirk had been seen in previous episodes, but each occasion was a Kirk from an alternate timeline.

Goofs
Seems to be a huge error in judgment on Kirk's part to give a phaser to Uhura knowing she is hallucinating, especially after she had already punched him due to a hallucination.

Quotes
Nyota Uhura: Hemmer was our chief engineer before he...
Pelia: I know. He was one of my best students. I'm sorry, I just said that because he's dead. Actually, he was just okay.

The worst SNW episode so far

I love SNW but ugh this was a brutal episode. Not sure what was going on here.

Plays out like a bad 2000s horror movie. Bad audio effects, iffy acting by Uhura, terrible plot holes making the whole thing implausible and cringeworthy. Hard to watch after the rest of the stellar season's 5 previous episodes.

Reminds me way too much of Star Trek Discovery. It even brings Kirk into the fold in a very skeptical way, over emphasizing him while he shows not enough Shatner-ness.

The whole thing feels like some other much less talented team wrote this episode. Maybe they had to pull bad on expenses after the last few.
