THE FINAL TALLY This episode felt like it needed time to breath. I can't help but feel like this would be a pretty good episode if it had been a trek length 44 minute episode instead of a twenty two minute cartoon. As is it feels kinda so-so to me. I award this episode SIX STAR TREKS OUT OF TEN Still Zero laughs.

i'm actually kind of hopeful that it will blossom into a good series, a lot of good shows started off with a mediocre first few episodes, with any luck they're just establishing a baseline for the characters then they can start flexing that creative muscle this is a 100% serious post, I still hope for good things

Sir DonkeyPunch posted:oh wow, the captain's daughter the cynic is right about everything again, basically the first episode all over again Well, that's a bad sign for a Trek show. I'm not up for the reflexism cynicism of adult animation mixing into Trek.

So there's a historic once in a lifetime peace summit but our cast isn't going. They were supposed to be there but the summit has been moved from Cardassia Prime vulcan because the Cardashians are freaking everybody out.

The lower decks crew are enjoying "buffer time" which is basically what you do when you tell the captain it's gonna take longer than it really will so as to look better when you come in under time. But purple hair accidentally lets this secret technique slip to the captain.

I think lady ensign having rolled up sleeves is a nice touch. It's a good character design decision because it keeps her distinct from the other members of the crew and they use it in the plot of this episode to reinforce the divide between leadership on the ship and the lower decks.

Everybody is tired and miserable back on the ship. The captain even is tired and miserable but she'd have to admit that sometimes the crew needs breaks in order to end the scheduling clock but she's never gonna do that!

 They wanted to show battle damage on our main character and also keep the design consistent so they just tore off a little bit of the sleeve that was usually rolled up. A good choice imo.

So basically, the federation pissed off these crystal loving aliens. Now the away team is all captured and there's gonna be trial by combat or some people are getting squished. Lady ensign and away team dude (upper decker) are both gung ho trial by combat types so when the opportunity comes up they fight over who gets to go fight the fifteen foot tall murder alien in the arena.

Purple hair finds out the bridge crew are also on the strict scheduling system. He points out that's a bad idea.

This is so she can show off her scars from cool rear end thunderdome fights. She's the more experienced fighter between herself and away team guy.

Oh no Mariner (lady ensign) can't help but be attracted to away team dude and his sexy abs and his lust for killing things with his bare hands. And I guess she's into being stabbed or something.

Anyway the power of not needing to multitask gives the crew of the ship the strength they need to defeat the invading crystal loving aliens and to stop their graffiti-ing and their vandalism.

Now that his career could be in jeopardy away team guy is expecting to be fired for stabbing a member of his crew in the foot. But Mariner isn't gonna file a report.

Also away team guy promptly has Mariner hauled away because her sleeves weren't rolled down during the mission.

The captain makes a rule saying you can occasionally break the rules and names it after purple hair.
