Yeah, it is a bit weird to introduce zombies but then to only use it as window dressing instead of dealing with the scientific ramifications of creating the walking dead that are invisible to tricorders. They’re a distraction to M’Benga’s more personal story of him needing to confront the consequences of his actions.
Not to like completely say the episode was bad, it’s just with a bit more thought it could have been better and more impactful to the meta narrative.
@dethstrobe this M’Benga fellow seems like the most interesting character of the lot, with a backstory we’ve only seen bits and pieces of. It’s a shame Paramount will probably kill off its Star Trek franchise before we see more of it.
