Another slow developing episode, which turns out to really be about McCoy and Spock’s relationship. This is the first time that the real complexities have been clear, and it seems like this is an important building block in the relationship that can be seen in the Star Trek films. The competition between McCoy and Spock to volunteer for the suicide mission is great, and McCoy’s emotions as he follows Spock on the mission are quite believable.
