Let's play a text-based adventure game about Star Trek on the Enterprise D. I'll be your guide. Whats your name Captain?

Blade

Welcome aboard the USS Enterprise-D, Captain Blade. I am your ship's computer, and I will be your guide on this adventure.

Cool.

What would you like to do first?

Self destruct the ship

Captain Blade, self-destructing the ship is a highly dangerous and irreversible action. Are you sure you want to proceed with this decision?

Yes

Self-destruct sequence initiated. The ship will explode in 10 seconds.

I am waiting

9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... The ship explodes.

What next?

You are now dead. Thanks for playing! If you want to play again, please subscribe to give me a voice

Remember that Sarek is not speaking to Spock for another like 18 years or so

One of my viewing partners said "They only know humanity from call centers."

So... what was up with the door in the transporter room slamming shut in Pike's face when he turned to leave Amanda and Spock? lol

SpaceX pretty much kept US Spaceflight alive between the time of the Space Shuttle, and... whatever comes out next. Tesla corporation has proven to the rest of the car manufacturers, and other startups, that the way of the future is not via burning fossil fuels.

Elon showed the world what a shitheel he was after that.

So, I'm pretty sure that this dialogue was written before Elon became the obvious shitheel that he is now. And, as many point out, mirror universe Elon Musk might've been even more instrumental to their world, than ours.

Not exactly what you're getting at here, but the first scene in the last episode, where we see Kirk on the UEF Enterprise, as La'An enters the bridge, and he turns to her, and talks, that is absolutely channeling TOS Kirk in virtually every aspect.

And then, outside of that, In both of the episodes we've seen him in, we've explored aspects of Kirk that are both the same as the Kirk we know, as well as very different from the Kirk that we know.

Outside of Pike and Batel's relationship, are there any points in this episode that look to connect to anything else in the currently ongoing plotline in SNW? I didn't really notice anything, it seems like this might be the most standalone episode.

If I remember correctly, the very first scene of S1E1 was Batel waking up in Pike's bed, so.. yeah :D

I’m not seeing much activity from any Michigan SRA. And none in or around Kalamazoo area.

Does anyone know if there is any active groups?
