Yeah, but the depth was great, I really felt m'benga was a badly developed character till now, and this fleshed him out in ways that made him now one of my fsvorites, before he made no sense.
Also loved bunny's work as the klingon, that is ALWAYS a hard role, but he managed to nail him as
Spoiler
People will undersell how hard that is to pull off, m'benga's actor had 1.5 seasons to lay the foundation for aspects of his character (though honestly it was mostly done here) while bunny had this episode, to cram in all of that.
Help! How do you do spoilers!!? K, figured it out.
Agreed on the Klingon ambassador! The acting felt weird at first but his demeanor made sense at the end.
And I feel similarly as you about M'Benga. I didn't care much about him until now, he was simply the doctor that speaks strangely. But now I really want to find out what's next for him.
M'benga was so intense for no reason, and the fighting thing was overplayed, his whole demeanor was off.
Now it kind of plays, the doctor who hates himself because he had to kill.
