It is a great what if episode ( what if Spock was human for a day) and colors within the lines (in that everyone else plays true to the their character & situation).

We really really enjoyed it!

Spock being human was great in that he had no clue how to be human, like when he overlaughs at the bar. Lol!

Now… there are a few moments where I feel like the dialog of the Vulcans used more emotional words than the precise language of logic might require.

One is where T’Pring says her mother felt and perhaps believed would have been a more rational word choice?

There are a few cases like that and for me it is surprising each time it happens.
