I think Darem's biggest issue was his drive to be the best, and he pretty much got over that last week. Other than that...IDK, he's a bro, and I think he behaved as a bro this week.

    Yeah, he always thought he had to put everyone else down to be a leader, because that's how it is on Khionia. So his first move is picking a fight with the Klingon to show who's boss.

    And as you say, last week he realised "Wait, greatness in Starfleet comes from helping others be their best selves? Well let's get started then, I understand the assignment now!"
