Cue the onions with that glimpse of Carrie...

My biggest/only major quibbles were Sarek & Amanda getting on & off of Discovery for their ‘big goodbye’ scene in the midst of the giant Control blockade (after all, Enterprise is at high warp and only running what - 15 minutes ahead of ‘em?). If’n that’s the case, give Enterprise Sarek’s engines and fuck Section 31!

I'm floored that no one mentioned the simply perfect interaction between Dr. Culbertson and Tig Notaro's engineer (who REALLY needs to become Discovery's chief engineer, dammit!). That was just plain brilliant!!

Duke Sucks.

That is all.

Button worn by ‘Driving Miss Betsy’ deVos today:

The two main problems I had with this week were first, not blowing the S31 ship straight to hell once they figured out it was the trojan horse it was (i.e., beam out Tyler - yeah I know everyone hates him, myself included, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - then, kaboom), then (along with everyone else), going “please don’t be the Borg,…

Get over yourself, FFS. If you don’t like it, then DON’T. WATCH. IT. And let the rest of us who enjoy it alone.

Just damn.

We’ve all seen this script on SVU: The cops overreached, the State’s Attorney’s office had to cover their asses. Both the judge and Jussie’s lawyer agreed with the deal to seal the record to allow the state’s attorney’s office to save face. Everyone washes their hands, and lives to fight another day. QED.

What I want to know is what the deal with Smollett forfeiting his bail — offsetting penalties!?

Unca Joe could run with a dinner plate of collard greens right now and still be the front runner.

We are watching the equivalent of the Dayton play-in games of the NCAA tournament. Joe Biden is Duke. Bernie Sanders is Villanova. Kamala Harris is Gonzaga. Cory Booker is North Carolina. They can kick their feet back and…

That was pure Georgiou. For the greater good...

No — we (and I am using the royal “we”) NEVER abide by being called “Mikey.” Ever. My grandmother was the only one who got away with it. And she was nearing 100 when she passed away.

I digress: She had Alzheimer’s, and as she lay on her deathbed, I smiled at her and in one of her final moments of lucidity, she smiled…

Go back to your Treknobabble 201 course and check your notes from classroom lecture session number 6. I think they were covered there.

Yeah - although, I would have wanted a mention of the temporal cold war by name. That storyline was wrapped up in ST:Enterprise a little TOO NEATLY and should not have been left dangling like it was.

Yep, Doug confirmed that it actually WAS him singing in last night’s episode (and yeah, just like pretty much everybody else on that cast, he rocks):

I came here just for this passage.

And of course, to meet the meat.
