S4E61 - A president in your closet

S05E20: Ferengi Love Songs; S05E21: Soldiers of the Empire

Episode Notes

Ferengi Love Songs: Rene has found his niche: horny Ferengi. Starfleet pest control is... interesting. Time to visit Moogie! Strangest thing to find in your childhood closet? Wait, how big is this closet?? Brunt is a Sovereign class hater. The one place where the Ferengi>America analogy falls down in the 21st century is that they don't generally shoot people to solve problems. The gang makes Aaron produce a new sound effect. The Ferengi market must be incredible volatile. O'Brien makes other people suffer. Odo turns his inner cop into community work.

Soldiers of the Empire: We've been in Nog's shoes. Klingons would love anime. Time for some Klingon weeb bullshit. Dax is a better Klingon than Worf. Martok is acting weird. Worf puts over Martok by taking a knife to the kidney. Martok gets his groove back, and Worf gets a new house. Some more Klingon thoughts. DS9 is the rare show without much rivalry in female friendships. A divergence into Dragonriders of Pern.

S4E62 - This is a Voyager episode

S05E22: Children of Time; S05E23: Blaze of Glory

Episode Notes

Children of Time: Kira breaks up with yet another boring guy. Welcome to... Gaia? Grandfather Problem Trolley Problem Or Something. Odo's gotten pretty good at shapeshifting in 200 years. Worf gets a cult. This episode wants to do too many things, and doesn't do any of them well.

Blaze of Glory: We punish Jude. Wait, we thought we were done with the Maquis. Morn needs to uninstall social media. FINALLY. The Nog B-Plot makes us much happier. Ben's fusion cooking.

S4E63 - A Mirror Universe episode but not horny*

S05E24: Empok Nor

Episode Notes

*Except for Garak

Star Trek horror episodes have two modes: worse than the cave set, or unbelievably good. Cardassians do not believe in Right to Repair. These redshirts are VERY redshirt. Some board game hot takes. Genre-awareness in redshirts. Super-racism drug? Nog's great. Garak, but turned up to 11. The ethics of improvised space slurs. The qualities of horror and the cast's opinions.

S4E64 - Three Weddings and a War

S05E25: In the Cards; S05E26: A Call to Arms

Episode Notes

In the Cards: Baseball cards? In my post-capitalist society? Yikes, Jake. Yikes. Soulless minions of orthodoxy is my next band name. NoJ Fetch Quest party. Everyone ends up better than they started, somehow, including Weiyoun. Winn and Sisko have an honest conversation for the first time.

A Call to Arms: Jake is a bit of a shit, part two. Leeta and Rom get married! Mine the wormhole! Upping the stakes some more, and more, and more. Jake and Rom are in danger. Martok's suave look. Rom's arc has been epic.

S4E65 - Star Trek is Humanity's Isekai

M08: Star Trek: First Contact

Episode Notes

Justen's theory of Trek Movies.

PICAAAARD has borg-lepathy. The Enterprise does the traditional "ignoring clear orders". Borg geometry. Surfing the time-travel wake of a sphere. Nothing ever goes wrong when redshirts are in a Jefferies Tube. Troi's main contribution to the movie is getting white-girl wasted. Data gets an introduction to HR Giger. Justen's theory of Star Trek.

Rejected episode titles:

  • Jockstrap Paradox

  • Tsundere Space Elves

  • Assimilate This
