    I agree the resolution was absurd. But that does kinda match the absurdity of the episode. And the focus of the story was not on Pike so requiring Pike to fix the thing would be a different story awkwardly stuck in there.

      Yeah, I think it was an appropriate resolution for the genre they were playing in.

      Mind you, I felt the same way last week.
