A clip from Season 2 of STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS captures a charged encounter between Ambassador Dak'Rah, played by Robert Wisdom, and Dr. M'Benga, played by Babs Olusanmokun , as the two face off during a sparring session. The footage, shared by Paramount, comes from Episode 8 of the second season, titled Under the Cloak of War, and centers on Dak'Rah's attempt to build a relationship with M'Benga while the two are engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS is a science fiction series set in the Star Trek universe, following the crew of the USS Enterprise in the years before the events of the original series. The show streams exclusively on Paramount+.

The clip highlights one of the season's more tension-driven storylines, placing two characters with a complicated dynamic in close physical proximity as Dak'Rah pushes for a connection that M'Benga appears reluctant to grant. The episode title, Under the Cloak of War, suggests the broader conflict informing their uneasy exchange.

Paramount has been active in releasing clips and full episodes from its streaming library on YouTube, including footage from STAR TREK: PICARD , which featured Patrick Stewart in the series' third season finale.
