Star Trek Lower Decks

[Shadewing]

And a Lower Decks Mobile Game.

 

[Dvandom]

The comic is written by Ryan "Squirrel Girl" North. Three issues, from IDW.

Saw the new one.

Slightly confused but did it imply that he was married before?

I wonder what the doc thinks about kitty prejudice, haha

 

[Dvandom]

Something of a Galaxy Quest homage this episode, in the "Why do we even HAVE this in the ship?" sense.

Is this the first time we've seen what's "inside" the deflector array?

 

[Fullstrength Motleypuss]

Probably but it's certainly the first time the deflector array has been used for it's intended purpose.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Which is, in and of itself, a strange event.

 

[Dvandom]

Didn't they pull the deflector array apart in one of the movies for plot device reasons?

---Dave

 

[wonko the sane?]

They launched the projector EMITTER into space, but we never really saw the inside, physical underpinnings.

So no real confirmation there isn't a spinny bit.

 

[Daith]

What Wonko said. It was during First Contact, when the Borg were trying to readjust the Dish to signal the Borg of the time to head to Earth early.

 

[Daith]

Surprisingly there is now a Lower Decks comic.

Just read it. It's doing the usual thing with Lower Decks. The big plot with the Lower Deckers is while fooling around with the Holodeck they repeat the Moriarty event from Next Gen...... with

Well I mean technically it should be functioning whenever a ship is traveling through space, it's just not remarked upon.

Luuuuv the new episode! I realized before that I'm not into Mariner at all so A-Plot can go hang. B-Plot was just brilliant! Also, terrifying at the start. He was just so helpless!

Btw, is the Starbase 80 (?) an actual reference?

 

[Dekafox]

Starbase 80 was mentioned before in other shows, but it never had a reputation until LD.

 

[Fullstrength Motleypuss]

I gotta say I'm loving Bold Boimler. Him going off on literally everybody throwing shade was priceless.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Think he'll understand mariner a little more now?

I thought Mariner was the B-Plot.

 

[Fero McPigletron]

I thought Mariner was the B-Plot.

With the importance of what happened to Rutherford, yeah, I would say so. But noooo, Mariner gets the last scene anyway, urgh.

Btw, has Boimler been in an adventure with Tendi? Can't think of an EP on top of my head. Rutherford is always paired with her already and Boimler and Rutherford were together for that illegal beast exploitation ep.

 

[Dvandom]

The only other pairing mix-up we've gotten was when Mariner and Tendi were paired for the Orion thing.

And dayam, Rutherford got himself a Bridge Crew-level subplot now. (And like Picard,

Spoiler

Mariner got herself a sexy archaeologist potential girlfriend.

)

Always nice to get a reminder that Rutherford is Filipino on the show
