One of my favourite characters on SNW for a reason. :)

    Yup. He certainly is one of the most interesting Characters and I am happy how they expanded on his backstory over the episodes. There are also loads of conflicts and grey areas, which I enjoy.

    spoilerI however would not have accepted him back into the team so readily after he killed the Klingon Ambassador and spared out a few details. The ambassador was way out of line asking M'Benga to come along to his roadshow as an ornament - look how well we get along - despite only knowing the guy for a couple hours and not acknowledging the great rift between these two first. But to sweep it under the rug. Phew. I don't know if I would have done that.

    I agree, and I’d go so far as to say they’ve made Pike too soft a touch in a lot of ways at this point. When this version was first introduced in Discovery, I loved his open, cooperative approach to things. But that’s slowly morphed into a lack of conviction or decisiveness.

    He feels almost a little corrupt. Not sure if that's the right word, but it makes him look as if he tries his hardest to just look after himself and his loved ones, even at the expense of others. Which I'd be down for, should they expand on it in future episodes, but I doubt wtiters will, since we all already know where Pike is headed. And we do know that he does it to safe others which would be a major conflict in his character, should they explore the theme of 'corruption'
