I'm glad Captain Pike feels the same way about Ash as I do. Bad Penny indeed. Like a bad penny mixed with poop and some gum that I just can't scrap off my shoe.

I can really feel those time distortions. Pike uses the engine flare method that Spock will later use in "The Galileo Seven". At the end of the episode we find Spock and Michael on their way to Talso IV. This is the planet from The Menagerie or The Cage if you want old school. By the official timeline Pike and Spock made their visit to Talos IV one year before the Klingon war started. This means that both Pike and Spock already know about the big bulb headed aliens and their mind powers. Which is probably why Spock wants to go there.

Section 31 continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Now they have at least 3 ships of their own. THEY ARE NOT STARFLEET INTELLIGENCE. There is already a Starfleet Intelligence. They are a COVERT arm of the Federation not their own branch of the military.
