Lower Decks continues to shine. I enjoy finally being shown aspects Orion culture, beyond being considered, " … delinquents, pirates, slave traders." (DSC s1e15, although the same perception about Orions is held throughout Star Trek). The expansion of Tendi’s background is great. I’m hoping for more on Orion in Star Trek’s future. Poor Mariner, lol.
Getting to see Boimler and Rutherford settle in as roommates made for a nice B story. That got me wondering again about Mariner and Tendi’s new quarters since their promotions. And, T’Lyn’s.
The mysterious ship of destruction is getting old for me. When only ten, twenty-five minutes each, episodes are considered a season, there’s little time to dilly-dally around with story telling. I’m just hoping this tease doesn’t continue to be unexplained until another season.
To bad there wasn’t time in “wej Duj” (LD s2e9) for an Orion Lower Decks segment. Now, I’m just waiting for an appropriate situation to say, " … that makes you more of an Orion plagiarist."
Honestly, whilst it would be nice for the mysterious ship of destruction to actually reach the central plot someone soon, I’m enjoying the little snapshots into lower deck life on other ships. It’s a shame it always inevitably ends with vaporisation.
I was hoping the little ship of doom is using unfamiliar tech to transport the people on the destroyed ships somewhere. Mainly because of Ma’ah and the Che’Ta’, and now the Orions. But, I’m leaning more towards destruction, than transporting. On the plus side, I have an astonishingly consistent track record of being wrong when guessing story points. Fingers crossed that my streak continues.
