I feel like we’re in a competition with the writing staff to see who can trip up whom in remembering deep lore.

The Twilight Zone connection was absurdly cool!

I’d call this the weakest episode of the season this far. But SNW has been so good this far, a middling show for it corresponds to “pretty decent” in any other series.

I know I’m in the minority, but I like Ortegas and was happy to see her get to do her Innigo Montoya impression. It would have been nice if her limelight episode was more focused on her, but there’s still plenty of season left.

Trip had at least one extra one from an alien “encounter”.

Knowing Riker… I’m going to say that he has a surplus.
