Me too. It certainly looks like a paradise.

It really does!! I would chill out on the red sandy beach and just listen to the light lapping over the waves.

I'm happy Saru will get to go home though and that his sister doesn't think he's dead. This episode definitely tugged at the heart strings.

I enjoyed the episode.

I did think it lacked any kind of discussion on the moral implications of what they were doing though. Saru arbitarily changed all the kelpiens without any thought of what the wider implications might be for his people, or the other alien species there. I think the aspect of forcing this change on everyone, should have at least have been discussed.

I'm glad we're finding out more about the angel alien, I do wonder what their motives are though...

Anyway a great episode for Saru, those weapons which come out of his head are awesome!

I would have liked to have seen more of Hugh, but I'm glad they are showing the PTSD that he's suffering, and that he's going to have to get over his experience in the long term.

hmm ... a possibility, but since we know Spock has had visions of the angel, I kind of doubt it.

Good point. I'm sure he felt that he was liberating his people. And I think that's what the angel wanted them to do.

Hugh is obviously very shaken up at being alive.

I really liked seeing Saru's home planet and learning more of his background.
