The plot twist from a question of priorities is a old one used many times. In Star Trek lore, does the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one? :)

Everyone at shodow sounds like an upper crust Princess Diana public school type, especially Gay on the moon. Different races were accepted but not if they spoke like Scousers, Glaswegians, Geordies or people from Manchester. That, along with the smoking, makes the series look dated.
