Logline
Returning to a planet that dredges up tragic memories, Captain Pike and his landing party find themselves forgetting everything, including their own identities as he confronts a ghost from his past.
It’s good to see Kirsten Beyer back in the writer’s room. It could be her that this episode reminds me of Workforce from VOY where the away team forget about their identities and keep on working for the planet government.
I felt the pacing was a bit rushed at the end and the episode could have given more time to explore the Kalar man’s memories and history so his arch is more earned.
