Just when you thought we were done with Kirk, Spock, and Bones, we still have movies to cover! We're diving into Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and we're bringing back fan-favorite Robert to dive in with us! After debating just how mouthy a trainee should be on the Enterprise, we get into the nuts and bolts of "How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life", and "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few".

This episode we're wrapping up our time in the Original Series by look at "A Taste of Armageddon". We'll stick with our "war bad, peace good" theme, while exploring some of the MCU implications (!) as the very nature of man! Oh, and are Vulcanians and Canadians related?
