(First watched 2024-04-18) What a fun and crazy episode. Like a less targeted [[Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 7|All Good Things...]]. A few people jumping through time having to solve a problem, giving an excuse to revisit past situations, uniforms, and characters as well as giving a warning about the possible future. We did see the return of some old characters, but not the BIG BIG guys. Lorca I wasn't too surprised to see not brought back for something so small, but considering he's still active on another show I thought there was a good chance for Pike or Spock to be seen. Burnham vs Burnham, what a fun fight. And of course through all of it Rayner learns the value of cooperation and yada yada yada. | (First watched 2024-04-18) What a fun and crazy episode.

Production wonder: Saru was in this episode, but only as a collapsed body seen briefly. I wonder how they pulled that off. I mean, making Doug Jones lay on the floor, easy. But I kind of hate to think of them making him (or a stand-in) go through the big makeup process just for a few seconds of laying on the floor. I wonder if they could get the footage necessary for that on a shooting day for another episode (even with the uniform change), or just use a prop, or... something. | |||

(First watched 2024-04-25) OK, so we didn't get any Strange New Worlds cast members last week, but we got some Strange New Worlds sets this week. The mirror Enterprise from some point after [[Star Trek: The Original Series Season 1|Mirror, Mirror]] gets taken by people somehow trying to escape to this universe, and apparently made it. Worth noting this does show that the mirror Enterprise at least did not revert to TOS sets in later years. The ship seemed to have a decent amount of power left if it's been sitting in that area for nearly a millennium. | |||
So L'ak is a Breen, and we see what Breen look like in real canon... sort of. I still don't quite understand what's going on with them looking translucent when they first take off the helmet? Can they take different forms? Do they... "go opaque" when a helmet isn't squeezing on them? | |||
Moll and L'ak are on the loose again, but given they're in something centuries old it strains credulity that they'll get very far. Tune in next week to see that they've gotten very far. | |||
