More likely they’d find him in the holodeck playing Cards Against Humanity with a simulated crew.

Can’t say yes to that, but when they boarded the Orville and detected a single life sign, I was thinking “Dann! Oh please let it be Dann! Come on Dann! Oh wait. No Bortus yet. Damn, no Dann”

The Orville was 7 miles deep with the corresponding pressure. I suppose it would have really messed things up if everyone died of the bends on the way up.

But flying Kaylon attack heads? Nice!

Can we infer this is when Mirror Universe Spock started growing his beard?

Damn there are lots of replies on this thread. What does it say about our culture that everyone is freaking out that good little sister Arya showed some side boob and got laid, but not one word about how she turned into a ruthless assassin? She killed fucking Littlefinger! She’s all growed up! She deserves some dick…

When you get to my door, tell them Bortus sent you.

Who would ever have believed Enterprise would lose the stupid prequel crown?

Let’s MOCSH!

I think the wipe worked but her gut remembered. At one point she said him calling so soon almost blew it. Would not take much to tip that balance.

I want some Dann backstory. There were a few of his people in the Union Hall.

The Kirk was strong with that one. If only Ed had beaten the Kaylon with a logic monologue that caused them to self destruct.

So glad I this week discovered Amazon is streaming Gerry Anderson’s UFO. This way when I see people smoking cigars in space ships I know SF used to be stupider than Discovery.

Then again, Rick and Morty already did Michael and Pichael.

Bortus and Klyden can be more fun. Also more tedious. Just saying.

I am hoping for a spinoff series The Adventures of Mike and Pike

They were trying for the Batman’s nipples of Klingons.

The live action comic book view is a good description. The first time I saw Buckaroo Banzai it made no sense until I started looking at it like that. Each scene was a page or two in a comic book with frames within. Then it made lots more sense.

Maybe each crystal is a potential future. When a crystal is chosen you see that fate and take it or leave it. The price is supposed to be more than you are willing to pay and you leave broken without the crystal. Unless you are a Star Fleet Captain willing to sacrifice so much.

Maybe there will be an explanation later on as to why the picking up the crystal locked Pike into this specific future

There’s no way they are going to burn Pike now. He’s one of the best characters at this point.
