Ok so I finally decided to watch the last episode. I got behind on SNW as it wasn’t available in the UK. Then I was in the middle of renovating/moving and so utterly exhausted. After that I decided I was so behind I might as well eke it out as a special treat 😛 I mean there’s only 10 episodes… that’s not a lot.

Anyway I got partway into it before a question occurred to me of “is this a callback to something that happened on TOS?” and a google said it was a parallel to the episode ‘Balance of Terror’ and so I took a pause of SNW and I’m now watching that first.

This is FASCINATING.

Idk whether to call it official fanfic or cinematic mastery but I am just 🤩 this is the sort of thing I love.
