    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Tim Russ made many changes to the script to ensure that Tuvok's backstory was consistent with the established Vulcan culture.
    • Goofs
      Tuvok repeatedly states that the explosion of the Klingon moon took place three days before the final battle scene; however, in the movie Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991), the explosion of the moon is stated to have taken place two months before the next scene in the film.
    • Quotes

      [Tuvok protests against Sulu's decision to rescue his comrades]

      Captain Sulu: Ensign, you're absolutely right, but you're also absolutely wrong. You'll find that more happens on the bridge of a starship than just carrying out orders and observing regulations. There's a sense of loyalty to the men and women you serve with, a sense of family. Those two men on trial, I served with them for a long time. I owe them my life a dozen times over, and right now they're in trouble and I'm gonna help them. Let the regulations be damned.

      Tuvok: Sir, that is a most illogical line of reasoning.

      Captain Sulu: You better believe it.

    5/10
    Nothing of consequence happens other than Sulu is painted in a bad light and the writers do not seem to care.
    Not much to say other than a terrible episode marred by writers who are ignoring the elephant in the room in order to tell a story that honestly should have been left on the cutting room floor. So many ways this could have been a better episode, but this episode was more about "Sulu! We have Sulu!" over, "how can we utilize the character of Sulu and Tuvok well).
