A much more sombre installment. I recall liking both Trujillo's reaction to Glal and especially her need to remind her bridge crew of the priorities in the mission. Revenge and reaction might be appreciated by klingons, but they're not strategically usefully and provide tactical advantage only by accident.
This provides really good character development for Glal - which is appreciated. A detail I didn't catch the first time around was the Catian equivalent of a nod - little details that help sell the sense of an alien species well known enough for such reactions to be recognized.
Thanks!! rbs
