I mean if the ST reboots mocked one thing it was the supposed perfect blend of emotionallism and intuition that Captain Kirk possessed.
Was there a bigger swing and a miss than Kirk pressuring beyond capability of his ship's "biggest asset" (his words)? Spock over and over spells out the importance and then even a Vulcan's inability to convey importance and meaning and yet dumby McGee pushes onward. Sigh. I love Kirk and maybe moreso Shatner. But for the love of me banging my head against a wall, this portrayal of inexplicable stupidity and lack of stable leadership had me wringing my hands. It might have saved the first fifteen minutes if Kirk had said the immortal words of Michael Scott: "explain it to me like I'm five years old."
One of the poorer episodes in a magnificent television series.
