A low point episode for me, the wedding could have been much better just adding a nemesis character to Daren that is hovering over her fiancee to grab the throne, some dark guy with evil intentions. As for the Genesis/Caleb plot I only enjoyed that he knew all the time she was playing him, I would have enjoyed much more if he will have resolved the issue, and don't have to tell the Chanciller about it.
Not very interesting episode, the main problem is that Darem has changed because a lot of time has passed between episodes, and I don't have a sense of that (there is a line when they said how long Tarima has gone for the recovery) , he has evolved from the character he was on the first episode, but we don't realize it
The change in Darem was the whole point of the Calica/prank episode. He went from needing to be the best (because of his parent issues) to apologizing to Genesis, supporting her as their team leader (with the prank as well), and telling his parents he's found another way.
With the Miyazaki episode, he immediately gave Genesis credit for the idea of how to find the cloaked ship, and while he didn't have lines for it, when she was getting frustrated with the search, his body language and gestures were essentially encouraging her.
All that stuff about Darem becoming less of an asshole since joining Starfleet has been retconned out. Now the story is that he was quiet and selfless on Khionia, and became a confident asshole since joining Starfleet Academy.
