Damn. The beginning of this was a good exploration on grief and how to deal with it. The death of a family member is tough and especially so when it's the youngest of the bunch. Seeing Isira and Andrus both sit there and try to figure out how their youngest sibling died before them was pretty true to life, IMO, and for sure a consideration I'd be making were I in their situation.
The twist, seeing that Govan was alive, was nicely pulled off and then the Trill curveball ... wow. Reflecting back to when Riker was joined with a Trill, Govan's situation seems to be all right for now but likely going to get worse before it gets better. Do they respect the wishes of this joined entity? Is it the wish of both of them or only Govan? Having the confidence boost and the knowledge of a 500 year old Trill at his disposal seems like a great thing NOT to give up.
