On our way to a sizzling finale?

Actually, I like this episode! It reminds me of the quality in the first two seasons.

There's less baby talk, Burning isn't whispering as much and the dialogues in general are stronger.

The maturity in the 'argument' between Saru and the president T'Rina is reminiscent of proper Vulcan logic and typical relationship tension. Subtly and beautifully acted!

Also, the writers made a long overdue choice about splitting up Adira and Tall without getting all soppy about it - an elegant display.

I love the character switch in Culber - very strong portrayal, almost unrecognizable.

There's something to be said for the slow build up of the plotline to create suspension. Let's hope it leads to a sizzling finale!
