Summary
Alexander must face his first rite of ascension initiation, during which a Klingon warrior named K’Mtar has a disturbing request for him.
Our Take
A middling Klingon episode that leans hard on Alexander, a character the show never quite figured out what to do with. The twist is decent and the Klingon culture material holds some interest, but the pacing sags in the middle and the emotional beats feel unearned. Fine if you’re completing the season, otherwise skippable.
