Well, the hazing thing could just be reserved or cadets or Ensigns. Department heads likely wouldn't have to put up with that sort of thing.

Aye, I edited as you replied and it seems I misremembered the scene which can be watched above... My bad!
I did also get the impression from Ghosts of Illyria that Number One and Hemmer knew each other previously, from that "I can sense that expression" "I know you can" dialogue exchange.
@The Wormhole I suppose we don't know how much time is supposed to have taken place between episodes. Or maybe Una/Spock have served with Hemmer previously on other assignments?
Possibly both yes. In fact, in my head canon, I'm now crafting a scene set shortly after the Q&A Short Trek where Una, Spock and Hemmer have to get out of a sticky situation by singing Gilbert and Sullivan because reasons. During a joint mission between the Enterprise and some other ship.
Still a better story than the Klingon War in DSC Season 1.
I actually really like the Klingon story in season one. For me the overly long trip to the Mirror Universe is where season one fell apart.
Two friends I have who were once active military said they loved the scene because hazing of this type often can/did occur in tight knit units when someone new (of low rank) transfers in; and it was the first time they saw this being reflected in Star Trek.
That was even worse. Ugh.
I think I'm in love with Ortegas. 
But then again, who isn't.

It can be a lot more brutal IRL, but yes, they’re definitely investing in those seemingly mundane “little moments” that make things more life-like and realistic. It could be argued that they’re finally exploring the human condition in a way akin to Roddenberry’s original vision.
Trailer for S01E05, Spock Amok:
That whole trailer looks fun & awesome, but I especially like the music behind it!

I agree! It’s fun and funny, and Nami Melumad has done truly fantastic with the music each episode so far!
The series is fun and wants the audience to feel relaxed and enjoy themselves. That's such a nice change of pace.
She's a true prodigy with all that she's done for Prodigy and SNW! And super-humble about it!

I could have sworn I heard Uhura use the word 'Uzaveh'' when she was speaking Andorian to Hemmer. Would be an interesting touch, if true...
I wonder if next we'll hear about Hemmer's shelthreth.
In Episode 2? I didn't hear it, subtitles wouldn't match that word in English either.
