Sela breaks her shackles and attacks her father. She eventually gets a knife in the back as Spock simply observes. With Sela seemingly down, her father turns his attention to Spock, only for Sela to deliver the killing blow to her own father. Spock is allowed to leave in peace and later Sela sends a message to all Romulan forces naming a new Praetor. Later, Worf turns command of the Defiant over to B'Elanna Torres, saying he has been called away. Some time later Spock and Worf have a discussion and Alexander appears saying that he is ready to reclaim his honor.
A lot going on this issue. We see Spock placed in a position that will lead him to the opening moments of the first Abrams film. Sela, instead of proclaiming herself Praetor, simply gives that power to another. Her evolution over this series has been very interesting. I will say that the inclusion of O'Brien and Julian still feels like an afterthought. While it was fun to see them again, their appearance had little weight. This feels like an end as most of the ongoing plotlines are tied up by the end of the issue.
six out of ten.
