Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

M'benga and Chapel met in the Klingon war and there are some flashback scenes to that. Also plenty of mention of it when Pike wants their combat skills. Ortegas is a war hero from back then.
It's the episode where Boimler has his first command assignment and Freeman tries to prove she can fix computers.
It's not just the Klingon stuff, it's all the tragedy and drama. Mostly on La'an and Una's side. Spock is a culprit too, but at least his personal drama leads to shenanigans, which makes him tolerable. La'an and Una are no fun. Uhurua, Ortegas, Hemmer, and the engineer who got no arcs in season 2 are all more fun. Pike is boring but that's okay because he knows how to let everyone else shine.
