Lolani

io9 is right, the second episode of Start Trek Continues, Lolani, is getting pretty close to spot on as far as mimicking the original episodes.  Fun to see both Grant Imahara and Erin Grey in the episode, although I'm not sure how they got Katy Perry to play the Orion slave girl (that's a joke). How they handle the music shifts and some of the character interaction is spot on.  I laughed at the early interaction between Kirk and the female crew member helping Lolani when Lolani questions their interaction.  And when Lolani apologies to the transporter engineer for holding a knife to his throat and he dreamily says, "You remember me!" it felt like someone channeling the originals.  A great job.
