Throughout its various iterations and decades on television, Star Trek has always enjoyed a good courtroom drama from time to time. “Ad Astra per Aspera” picks up the thread of last season’s cliffhanger by offering us the trial of Una Chin-Riley (Rebecca Romijn). Due mostly to his stubbornness, Captain Pike (Anson Mount) is able to enlist the help of one of the universe’s best attorneys (), although her personal backstory to Number One does create some conflict. Although other characters get small moments here, such as Lieutenant La’an Noonien-Singh‘s (Christina Chong) struggle to discover how Una’s secret was discovered, this is really an episode for Rebecca Romijn who doesn’t disappoint.

With the ship in space dock, Captain Pike (Anson Mount) has left to find a lawyer for his friend leaving Spock (Ethan Peck) in command when La’an’s call for help arrives from a key planet to both the Klingons and the Federation warning of dangers to the fragile peace.
