10 Dumbest Things In Star Trek: Section 31 (2025)

9. It's Not Always So Black And White

There's something striking about a black and white outfit, so much so that fashion houses have included the bold pairing for time beyond measure. It's so chic, so in, so now! In Section 31, it's so thoughtless, so uninspired, so bland.

Now, this is less about the outfit choice, and all about the alien choice. Why are we including a resident from the planet Cheron here? Delighted as one may be to find a survivor from the bloody civil war that ruined so much of their world, one may find themselves a little more confused when one stops to think about it.

Cheron had been a dead planet for thousands of years by the time Bele and Lokai returned in Let That Be Your Last Battlefield. For another survivor to simply pop up barely sixty years later, serving as a valet aboard a criminal space station all seems a bit...convenient? Something that bears mention? 

The entire ending of The Original Series episode hinges on the power of Spock's words:

All dead.

Seems they should have added an asterisk or two there.
