The J.J. Abrams-directed "Star Trek" film depicted a young Kirk (Chris Pine) and Spock (Zachary Quinto) who initially hated each others' guts, but grew into being friends during a trial by fire. "Strange New Worlds" has been much more subtle in showing the beginnings of this legendary bond.

The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail' provides the crucible that 'Strange New Worlds' has been building towards since before it even existed: the forging of the team that made 'Star Trek'.

Strange New Worlds has a new romantic development with La’an Noonien-Singh and Spock. Their connection isn’t just some random B-plot; it might shake things up for both of them.
