    Positively Trek 308: What is Happening?!?

    “Four-and-a-Half Vulcans” - Strange New Worlds 3x08


    A mission to a prime directive-protected world requires the landing party to disguise themselves as Vulcans. Pike, Noonien-Singh, Chapel, and Uhura undergo a procedure that fundamentally changes them. However, things get crazy when they decide they don’t want to go back!


    In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry and Dan discuss “Four-and-a-Half Vulcans,” episode 8 of season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. We talk about the wildly improbable setup, the four new Vulcans, Kirk & Scotty, Una & Doug, and our final thoughts about this episode.
