This is a most phenomenal episode. Next to Amok Time, this is I would say my favorite Spock episode. Leonard Nimoy said that it was on his list of favorites for the series. I love Mark Lenard and Jane Wyatt as Sarek and Amanda. Amanda is definitely a very interesting character. I too would love to have a thorough deep dive into her character. The central conflict that Spock faces in this episode resonates on a very visceral level with me. I’m very fond of that line from Doctor Who, “Sometimes the only choices you have are bad ones, but you still have to choose.” and here especially it applies. It’s great how you can tell that although Spock is making a considerable effort to suppress his worry and concern for his father, he is feeling those emotions very deeply, And Leonard showcases his skill as an actor in that he conveys Spock’s turmoil in a very subtle manner. Credit where credit is due, Bones really came through with superb surgical skill that would make the surgeons at the 4077th jealous. I get what you mean when you say this felt like you were watching two episodes at once. I agree that the scene transition to Kirk being attacked was jarring. As always, your reaction was most excellent, Jess. Thank you so much.

Mark Lenard, who plays Sarek, was also the Romulan captain in Balance of Terror. Which now makes Spock's reaction to him a lot funnier.

I really enjoyed this episode. Perhaps my favorite so far though a couple others might beat it out. Knowing what I know from other Star Trek that I have watched (TNG and the TOS movies) this was a very interesting episode. Also, maybe it was just me, but the production value seemed to be higher on this episode. Maybe it is due to some of the effects being redone in the remaster.

Spock: "Captain: Ambassador Sarek and his wife are my parents." Jess: "B . .Wh . . Well, why didn't you say something?" Spock and Sarek: (thinking in perfect unison) "It was not required to do so!"
