The performances here were exceptional all around.

Wilson Cruz's Jinaal immediately put me on edge, but he turned out to be a very interesting character. It's a shame we apparently won't get to see Jinaal inhabit Moll or L'ak.

I also came away really impressed with Ian Alexander. I haven't been overly invested in Adira and Gray's story, but this development of them as "two kids who moved to attend different schools" was well-executed, and fairly low-key.

~~Captain~~ Commander Rayner continues to delight, and I'm glad they're allowing him to grow gradually, rather than having him learn his lesson all at once.

I guess we won't be seeing Nilsson again - I hope she's having a good time on Voyager.
