When the Entrepreneur finds an Earth vessel from the mysterious 1990s, an away team beams aboard to wipe the frost off the sleeping crew’s glass. But after a Starfleet historian falls in love with Khan and helps him commandeer the ship, Captain Kirk retakes control and leaves the augments at Ceti Alpha V. When is a hot dog order heroic? Which original Uxbridge-Shimoda policy is still in place today? How is Montalban like Walken? It’s the episode that kicked the can so far down the road.

Man, I like Bones, he seems like a chill guy, but I have no idea if he’s good at his job, because we never seem him do anything.

When Khan gets broken out of his sleep pod and is in medical distress, Bones just sits there and waits. Not even scanning him or anything. Khan lives because he refuses to die, apparently.

He’s giving good advice, so I’m glad he’s around. But my head canon from now on is that Bones has no idea what he’s doing and is there by mistake.
