Fantastic episode. Best of the season.

Was not a fan of the Spock/Chapel stuff but I think it’s hilarious Spock and La’an just take a detour to pound town after their dance lessons and leave it at that.

Carol Kane was AMAZING here conveying the fear and threat of the alien. When he called her a “Lanthanite Child”…good stuff. And then she finishes off her big scary speech at the end with the joke about the photo. So good.

The fight with suddenly feral Batel was good too. If this species is so old, how old does that make the Gorn that it would trigger that DNA to go into immediate fight mode.

The “Event Horizon” makeup on “Gamble” was really great. Nice and simple and creepy as FUCK. I am sad to lose him though. Thought he could have been a nice secondary character ala Nurse Ogawa.

I wonder if there is a Q connection with these aliens, they did mention finding artifacts on the planet Trelane mentions in WBB. That type of prison does feel like something the Q might devise.

Gonna give this one a very rare 9/10.
 
Glad to see some exploring, but



3. So, was Redjac a Vezda?

I'm surprised more people aren't predicting that. Effects proceed causes, posses people, pure evil, evidence of a prior connection to Earth, takes control of the ship, defeated by the transporter, has a reason to want to screw over Scotty, in particular; I think that little bastard was Redjac.


Good catch

They both use the word Vedza-pah to refer to these entities. Entities which are kept in crystalline containers in a prison outside of linear time, from which they cannot escape.

These are the pah-wraiths.

The crystal structure did give of Bajoran orb vibe. I missed that the literally used the term pah though.
