This episode knocked it out of the park. In a season that's been a wee bit hit and miss IMHO (compared to S1), seeing such depth and pathos in a story which could have been handled in a heavy-handed way otherwise, well it's very satisfying.

My two favorite "vehicles" in all of fandom are the Enterprise-D and the BTTF DeLorean. And what do you know, Andrew Probert had a significant hand in designing both, as well as the first updated Enterprise in Star Trek: TMP. Here's a cool interview with Andrew from back in 2001.

I don't think I've ever screamed so loud at my TV before. I was loosing my shit at this moment. I was stunned. What a high. Possibly one of the best memories of fandom I have in my life now.

Yeah, that. 😅

Hearing Picard simply snarl Q! in that grumpy Patrick Stewart manner is the greatest.

I love the character of Quark, but let's be honest. Guinan is the better bartender, if you're just a regular Starfleet officer looking to down a pint of syntheholic ale.

Only "mildly" infuriating??

I got the best deal of all: canceling my Prime membership. I'm saving tons of money! 🤡

(but seriously, screw Amazon and their monopolistic, anti-labor practices)

Weird that they'd bother to take the time to use an accent for "Café" but then misspell Coffee! 😅

Yeah, it's kinda crazy but I'm already running the dev beta on my iPad Pro and my Mac mini (main machine), and other than occasional graphics glitches or whatnot, I've been amazed at the stability and some actual bug fixes from previous versions. If it's looking this good already at the beginning of the summer, I'm feeling pumped about the fall!
