I watched it last night (New Short Treks). I like the Short Treks, the Tribble one was much better than this one though, this one was probably the weakest entry.
They were trapped in the turbolift. I’d rather be trapped alone so at least I could go pee, and no awkward conversation (till they come in and notice the pee anyway).
Anyway, they laughed a little (at something weird that wasn’t funny). It wasn’t a big deal (especially in her case, she’s a human woman with ONE canon appearance, who says she can never laugh?).
I liked seeing the “Number One” character, such a missed opportunity from the stupid reboot movies. I’ll say again a Pike/Number One/Young Spock prequel series would have been better than that let alone this Discovery crap.
I hate this turd they have play Spock, honestly he’s worse than Zach Queetro, he has no gravitas whatsoever.
One thing though he says to her “Have you ever considered that the prime directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical and perhaps morally indefensible?”.”
She said no and seemed annoyed, but I sure have. In fact, it’s total BS and arbitrarily applied at that and I hate how no one in the fascist federation is allowed to question it.’
People gonna be MAD if “Picard” sucks.
Spock and Number One were BOTH written by Roddenberry to specifically be emotionless, computer-like cold fish around other people in public. Having them share a belly laugh in a turbolift with EACH OTHER is akin to showing a Muslim and a vegan sitting down together and eagerly stuffing themselves with pork roast at a BBQ.
(and yes, I also hated Spock chuckling with McCoy in Star Trek Beyond. That and "gay Sulu" were two awful parts of an otherwise solid movie)
Not if it was on CBS All Access and being written and produced by the same people who made STD, which it inevitably would be in the current climate.

That turd is the grandson of Gregory Peck (we've amusingly nicknamed his version of Spock, 'Pecker Spock') and I agree with you there. Worse than Quinto (at least Quinto LOOKED the part). The weird thing is guy comes around as a second-rate Zachary Quinto imperonator. He also comes across as a "gayer" (more prissy and feminine) version of Quinto, in spite of the fact that Quinto IS gay and Ethan Peck is "100% straight"!
