Season 3, Episode 5
10/10
Living In The Storm

I am gonna be honest, one of the things I have been pleased about this new season, is that the drama of Klyden & Topa have been nonexistent. Klyden's atrociousness demeanor, while instilled with the Moclan traditions, has always left me feeling indignant. And it angered me to see those conventions coming to attainment in Topa. With that being said, I was very pleased with this story. It is yet another emotional episode, that delves into gender indentification and gives the point-of-view from not only the transgenders side, but as well as societies many standpoints on the matter.

On another note, this episode has finally won me over on Adrianne Palicki character. This is the best performance of Cmdr. Grayson to date. From maternal role model to a stern and pugnacious first officer, Palicki really drives this episode.
