In case you are wondering, the Koala says “It’s not your time, Bradward Boimler” in reverse.

“I can’t believe that worked!” is such a horrifying thing to hear your physician say just after waking up. Gotta love Dr. Cats

The typical Vulcan response of passivity but curiosity is going to work perfectly throughout Lower Decks.

It’s just perfect, isn’t it? Hardly a surprise to me given that a huge chunk of the funny parts of “serious” Trek stem from the dry bluntness of characters like Spock, Data, and Odo. Now that T’lyn is here my only question is why it took until the 4th season for someone like her to show up.

“What about Tuvok? You must be excited to see his quarters.”

“Perhaps. Are they austere?”

They floated it a little with Rutherford in the first episode or two with his Vulcan implant randomly making him act Vulcan, but it was dropped almost immediately.

I think by the time appeared T’Lyn in wej Duj, they had already produced most/all of Season 3, and didn’t realize how much of a hit she would be. And then there wasn’t an opportunity to go back and add her in. I think they had just enough time/room to add her to the end of S3E10

I guess it’s because of shorter running time => less time for supporting characters.

Just try not to make the face that Mariner made while saying that line.

“Eat a bag of Borg dicks, motherfucker!” has been added to my lexicon.

Right?

Agree. Agree. Agree. There is so much goodness in this episode. And, so much quotable material. Dr. T’Ana is becoming my favorite Star Trek doctor. Love her attitude. I laughed so hard when Dirk sicced Lancelot the ferret on Rutherford that I started coughing. Lower Decks! Lower Decks!
