Mariner and Boimler learn about the darker side of casual assumptions. Join your twenty-sided hosts as they discuss well-executed (if somewhat standard) character-focused plot lines, the joy of getting to learn more about T'Lynn's tastes, and the value of incorporating a lithe slippery person into your team of adventurers. Dan also discuss, at no small length, his views on chicken tenders.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Next week: We continue our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Lower Decks' fifth and final season with our discussion about 'A Farewell to Farms'

Mariner and Boimler find inspiration in themselves while Tendi and Rutherford navigate potentially life-changing decisions. Join your slightly alternate hosts as they discuss the glorious (if bittersweet) return of Star Trek: Lower Decks for its fifth and final season, the series' continued mastery of combining humor with emotionally-resonant and intellectually-stimulating story lines, and the awesome cry of the noble blazzard.

Riker offers Geordi the one thing he's always wanted - an age-appropriate Wesley Crusher.

Also, we got two new reviews, so you get two new haikus!

Chakotay gets naked while The Doctor gets the flu. Join your hawkeyed hosts as they discuss the terrible decision to apply Star Trek's "unitary culture" trope to all indigenous peoples in the Western Hemisphere, the even worse decision to ascribe native culture and success to the influence of Elaine's boss, and the very good decision to listen to Robert Picardo. We also talk about the 1993 show Time Trax for reasons that aren't made entirely clear.

Dr. Phlox wrestles with racism and medical ethics while Trip and Malcolm try to save a group of comically recalcitrant Denobulans.
