It's been a gas and it's time to pass.

Spoiler throughout:

Is that an angry bullpup version of the unicorn dog from the Original Series? I like the Sense-oars pronunciation I spotted. OMG I should've expected them to address the different Klingon looks but I didn't expect to see a T'kuvma / Discovery era Klingon reappearing. When they said "solidton" particles I imagined it was going to be a metaphor about keeping "canon" stagnant. First time I see a ST character say "those words aren't real" to Treknobabble. I'm glad they're keeping the Star Trek tradition of holding up way too many Pads on the table where one should've done the trick. I never wondered if Klingons had claws for toenails, now I am. I like how Brad tries to convince others that William's the worst. How'd they know they were dropping out of warp if the next shot shows them cloaked? I expected as much with the ship changing. Never really cared much for the different classes of ships though. This Rutherford bitterness feels like it came out of nowhere. Those whales are thirsty again. I thought she was going all Kamehameha. I have a feeling the clam is a reference to something but I'm not sure what. IDK why, but that one shot of Boimler turning his head and us being able to see under his chin particularly stood out as a "bump the lamp" moment. Was there a cut scene, what was (silver?) Badgey doing there? Or was that Goodgey? Have I forgotten about them? I like how Ransom made his own rule for provisional first officers. Engage the core is a perfect Warp catchphrase.

I liked how William Boimler was so done with Multiverse fatigue. Felt topical given the current Hollywood trend.

"Sodium is not a full life" "Maybe it is for me, dammit!" Felt this in my soul.

The Bughoons were so cute.

"We'll have to lick it off" had me reeling.

I found the lurkey quite funny this episode, even if it was a bit of an embellished and exaggerated character.

And my goodness, I love the guest star that they found on the time dilation planet in this episode: The Vasquez Rocks.

I like how tall Olly is. Really helped sell the "Demigod" thing.

Finally, representation for the struggle of being a young Immortal.

I find it peculiar how they've hidden the creeping Boimler Beard from the trailers a month ago.

Twisting the usual Star Trek species formula a bit and having an entire culture center around food critic reviews is really funny. Especially with how this has been built up since Season 1 with Migleemo relating everything to food—I thought it was a individual person thing but it turned out to be something cultural.

They show us a canon depiction of the transparent skulled Gallamites and then they bring back that one species from ENT that was offended by public eating in the same second? It's like they were targeting me specifically.

OMG they've added a green hand to the intro.

I'm hoping they won't go too long with the Multiverse stuff / council of ::: spoiler spoiler Kim ::: thing. I'm kind of fatigued with multiverses as it is.

That's such a low blow that it is aiming for the toes.

Regarding point 2, I just figured Gabriel Bell was probably just someone good with computers who was also down on his luck and empathic to others' plights.

Maybe they were attending number 15 ^o C at that processing center.

Weird to see them side-by-side in a videogame, but it feels so right.

They announce comic things at comic-con?

That's not a bad idea either.

Pike went to Johnny Bravo's barber off screen.

Do you think the humans acting all "logical" is psychosomatic? They're less aware of the cultural history that lead to Vulcans suppressing their emotions and acting logical, so they think that logic is more of a racial trait, and thus act logical.

There is a bit of a precedent of logic being genetically encoded with Star Trek Prodigy when ::: spoiler spoiler Dal ::: acted more logical upon ::: spoiler spoiler activating his Vulcan genes ::: .
