No.... I juste have a hate for most of the Trek episodes starting with a catastrophic situation and a blackout with a "XX hours ago..." captions...

Top easy writing.... At least, they build the tension here

I couldn't agree more. It feels like lazy storytelling, and I actually appreciated this episode for not resorting to that kind of fakery. It's setup was strong enough to be its own thing. I respect that a lot.
