Nice! I’ve said it elsewhere, but for all those that liked this episode and haven’t seen LD, a massive part of why this episode is so good, IMO, is that it is in many ways a LD episode. Give it a chance I’d say.

Though I think there’s a lot to be said for how good the fusion of SNW and LD turned out to be.

@maegul Thanks -- I think I will (give LD a chance).

Like most Star Trek shows, it took a bit find its own strengths and to settle into its own groove. At 22 minutes an episode, getting through the ground establishing first half season isn’t a big time investment, and by the end of the first season, you’ll know if it’s for you - although it keeps getting stronger and more grounded in its own lore as it goes.

Man, I knew I loved LDS after the first 5 minutes. Show came out the gate running
