Star Trek: Discovery turned viewer distress into joy by killing off fan-fave Hugh Culber (Wilson Cruz) only to bring him back with a shocking resurrection in season 2. Audienecs first fell in love with him in season 1, episode 4, "The Butchers Knife Cares Not for the Lambs Cry." His ability to gently wield a medical tricorder while respectfully telling off a superior officer had them immediately intrigued. Over time, they learned that Hugh cares with his whole heart even when it hurts. Hes not afraid to speak his mind whether to challenge an order or express his emotions with vulnerability. By association, Paul comes off as less cold and judgmental when basking in the love of his husband.
