Episode Summary & Review
Summary
A shuttle accident leads to Spock’s Vulcan DNA being removed by aliens, making him fully human and completely unprepared to face T’Pring’s family.
Our Take
A fun premise that lets Ethan Peck actually cut loose for once, playing a Spock who can’t hide behind logic. The comedy mostly lands, especially the dinner scenes with T’Pring’s icy parents, though the Vulcan family politics stuff wears thin by the end. Light, silly, and a nice break from heavier episodes this season.
