    Summary

    “Jim had often thought about how lucky they were that his feigned death had been enough to snap Spock out of his pon farr. He’d never even considered the fact that no Vulcan would ever believe that.”

    Assuming he and Spock are dating, Amanda and Sarek invite an unsuspecting Kirk to family dinner.

    Summary

    Case study: an empirical inquiry that investigates the real-life context of a single individual or group to explore the causes of underlying principles or phenomenon.

    When Ambassador Sarek granted Dr. Amanda Grayson permission to conduct her research on Vulcan, she prepared herself for the uncertainty of space travel, the planet’s extreme heat, and the often-frustrating logic of its inhabitants. She did not prepare for being swept up in the rising tensions between humans and the Vulcan people.

    With Vulcan undergoing a period of turmoil, Sarek and Amanda often find themselves targeted by those in the shadows. Together, they maneuver the harsh and rough terrain of Vulcan and its politics.

What was meant to be a single night shared in the company of a stranger soon becomes complicated when they encounter each other on the bridge the following day.
