    At long last, the episode people have been anticipating/dreading since the preview scene dropped a year ago.

    I dunno, I thought it was fine. It signals right from the beginning that we shouldn’t take it too seriously, and it maintains that tone through to the end. The comparison that keeps popping into my head is “The Magnificent Ferengi” - transparently ridiculous, but enjoyable if you can get on its level.

    The emotional core is the four “Vulcans” revealing their inner secrets because of their transformation. SNW has gone to that well before, but it works well enough. The dance fight was very nicely done.

    Not a lot of meat on those bones, but there are worse ways to spend an hour.
