Okay, coincidentally, one of yesterday's episodes was The Naked Time, titled somewhat dubiously but involving a plot device wherein people started acting like their baser instincts would have them, the result of which being a very painful sequence wherein we watched Spock fight tears and say "Jim, when I feel friendship for you, I'm ashamed" and owowow. My affection for that man might be inordinately deep. I also might have a point, and it's this: How did mind melding with Picard help Sarek? All it took on Kirk's part was a little slapping around of Spock, which, while more fun to watch, is a far-cry-less intimate.
