What to Expect from Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Season 1 Episode 6: Come, Let’s Away
A training mission doesn’t go as planned on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Season 1 Episode 6, “Come, Let’s Away.”
After spending a few episodes getting to know individual cadets, “Come, Let’s Away” takes viewers on an excursion outside the school walls. On the episode, the cadets are sent to an abandoned ship for their first training mission.
What is supposed to be an uneventful learning opportunity soon turns into anything but when the cadets find themselves face-to-face with a new enemy.
There are no clues in the preview material that offer any insight into who this enemy is. Are they a completely new threat created for the series? Or, is it one the cadets haven’t encountered before, but viewers will know?
Regardless, they will have to work together to stay alive and get back to the academy.
While the cadets do that, Captain Nala works on her own rescue plan, turning to an unlikely source for help. Again, there aren’t any clues as to who that source might be. We have our guess, though. What about you? Who do you think Nala will ask for help rescuing the cadets?
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
