    Agreed on the Klingon ambassador! The acting felt weird at first but his demeanor made sense at the end.

    And I feel similarly as you about M’Benga. I didn’t care much about him until now, he was simply the doctor that speaks strangely. But now I really want to find out what’s next for him.

      M’benga was so intense for no reason, and the fighting thing was overplayed, his whole demeanor was off.

      Now it kind of plays, the doctor who hates himself because he had to kill.
