“Do Your Worst” understands that Khan’s Ceti Alpha V story is not compelling simply because viewers know where it ends. It works because the episode lets us see the hope that existed before that ending became inevitable.
A TV adaptation could bring its landscapes, domestic moments, and ethical tensions to life without relying on spectacle alone. It would show why Ceti Alpha V mattered to Khan, and why losing it changed him forever.
