Hey, new member here. Hi gang.

One thing that I really loved about this episode was how it paralled Picard and his brother from s04e02 of TNG. Even down to the winery and the fight in the opening sequence. amazing stuff.

 

[IMC Headquarters]

Hello there ruxxell! Welcome!

That's a great observation.

 

[Destructor]

Violent scenes for the Quinto-Kelvinprise with kids

Thank you!

 

[F. King Daniel]

Loving Boimler's confidence growing with his shitty teenage peach fuzz

Fun episode.

Sam Witwer also played Malor, Ma'ah's brother, according to the descriptions of the screen caps sent to various press outlets.

I've found this season to be...okay, so far. Didn't really have anything to say about the first three episodes. I was hoping they would go a bit further in terms of plots since it's the final season, but they all felt typical lightweight Lower Decks (maybe I shouldn't have expected anything else.) I rarely laugh out loud at the show either. I generally like the humour, but I feel (like with the plots!) they could maybe go a bit harder. Anyway, I liked the Klingon plot this week. I liked they they killed off the bady guy in the end, made it feel a bit weightier and fit with Klingon culture. The b-plot did absolutely nothing for me though, I've never found the bird guy amusing in the slightest.

Kor's speech about Klingon restaurants serving the grandchildren of men he murdered always put me in mind of the Tokugawa Shogunate and the role of samurai. During that time period, since Japan was united, it was not a place where there was much use for warriors. However, it was where almost all of the literature on the Way of the Warrior was written. The Klingons only have personal duels and bravado to make up for the fact the time of the great wars is over. Except, of course, Gowron fought the Kingon Civil War, the Federation, and Dominion War so all of that is no longer an issue. They no longer need to posture since the number of veterans is now huge.

 

[Paul755]

Weakest episode of the season for sure even though the Klingon stuff was great.

The food critic stuff…was…oof.

I thought it was gonna be more of a “Family” type episode at the start. And I was fully expecting a Martok cameo.

 

[cooleddie74]

More pink Klingon blood!

Also, a funny story. I enjoyed it.

Am I oblivious or does this not include the "nestworld" establishing shot?

 

[Birb-of-Prey]

At last, the lore I have craved!
Five years. For five years I've been getting by on appetizers in anticipation of the main course, and the slow-cooked entrée was well worth the wait! The name reveal for Birb Planet  alone was enough to send me into a giggling fit

 

[aquova]

Everyone is focusing on the temporal fissure plotline, but in reality the big season climax will be the fate of Boimler's beard

 

[Ray Hardgrit]

The two storylines have been connected from the start!

 

[Starkers]

Loved it. Best episode of the season for me. The Bij moment was just chef's kiss

Made me laugh out loud multiple times, hell I even liked the B plot!

 

[Hawku]

Klowahkans!

 

[Birb-of-Prey]

Klowahkans!

It's funny how upscale the Nestworld is, considering it's named after a literal shithole.

 

[Commander Troi]

Fun, as usual. Liked that we finally got a name for Migleemo's species. I thought the Klingon story was much stronger and more fun, but at least the Doctor got a little backstory in the B plot. Boimler's growing facial hair is a great running gag.

I was looking forward to your reaction

I found this episode to be just not entertaining at all. The main plot was boring and predictable, just a bunch of predictable Klingon jokes and wasting time on characters I couldn't care less about. The bird foodies was just stupid.

I voted 4/10, not the worst of the series but the worst episode in awhile.
