Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA potential Starfleet recruit asks if transporter crewmen ever get to sit on the bridge, which Mariner says could happen. The most famous transporter chief in Star Trek, Miles O'Brien, was first introduced as an unnamed crewman sitting on the bridge of the Enterprise-D.
- GoofsAfter stunning Rutherford, Shaxs calls Dr. T'ana to the captain's yacht and mispronounces her name. T'ana is 3 syllables, (Tuh-ah-nuh), but Shaxs pronounces it with 2 (Tah-nuh). It would be bad enough for any crew member to mispronounce the name of one of the senior staff, but Shaxs has been shown to be in an intimate relationship with the doctor.
- Quotes
Ensign Brad Boimler: Without Starfleet, none of you would exist! We don't *want* to protect you from the Klingons and the Borg; we just want to explore and study fucking quasars! But you know what? It's the right thing to do!

Featured review
Best Lower Decks episode so far!
This episode does everything right!
If they could just stop using the f-word 20 times per episode...
- 90s TNG-era Star Trek nostalgia, but only as a backdrop, not as integral part of the plot. Trekkies will recognize many details, but it's never a nostalgia bait.
- Characters get some development and one of them even finds out things about his past. And these things make even sense and offer room for further developments! In this episode character drives plot and plot drives character - with the prospect of even getting more down the line.
- Boimler ultimately got his guts together and Mariner has finally been put in her place.
- The show scaled back on the humor, especially on the absurd kind of humor. Do not get me wrong: They did not drop it entirely, but it has been set to 50%.
- When we see the Cerritos go to warp, we can see that the creators actually watch The Orville, as they copied the "go to warp speed but make anaft view shot out of it" from The Orville's season 2 finale.
