This episode was glaringly obvious about being written to give Lt. Yar a more dignified death. The plot is milquetoast, the outcome predictable, and I find it hard to invest in the characters. The ending pulled on the heartstrings, I'll admit that, but it seemed like an expensive piece of fanservice to reverse someone's decision to leave the show. Special effects were decent and Gainan finally gets a spotlight. Interesting, but not to a 9+ out of 10 level.
