Sacrifice of Angels (DS9 on Netflix)
List Only! Last Star Trek Episode You Watched
- Thread starter Kes2370
- Start date
Bar Association: Some sloppy writing! First Miles has to explain to Rom what a union is but then at the mere mention of it everyone (including the Ferengi) knows exactly what it is. I hate it when they can't even be consistent with what was said before in the same episode!
I've just started watching Discovery... finally
I don't blame you; that episode was a mishmash of a mess chucked into a blender and set to "warp puree"...
I'm about to watch "Justice" (TNG). This is going to be a painful one.
I can do this.
EDIT: It's tolerable until Wesley hits forbidden grass...
... wait a minute. Is this episode a super-subtle argument that laws are too inflexible and grass should be made legal? Or is my mind trying to reach for a way to make this salvageable? No. I'm not reaching. That sounds wacky enough that it just might've been the spark for the inspiration that led to... this.
You'd have to be smoking something to come up with "Justice".
DOUBLE-EDIT: I've come up with a new method to get through the first season. If a particular episode is grating on me, I'll stop it and skip to the next one. Then, after I finish the next one, I go back to where I left off with the last one and try to finish it off.
I tried this a bit little earlier. I had to shut off "Code of Honor". So I skipped to "The Last Outpost", then went back to where I left off with "Code of Honor".
So now I'll have to give "Justice" the "Code of Honor" treatment.

Accession,
Rules Of Engagement: Makes absolutely no sense at all! Worf may be a Klingon but he is a member of the Star Fleet and as such subjected only to the laws of the Federation, just as any citizen of a country originated from another country would be! Plus the Klingons were attacking the convoy!! It would be like a bank robber suing the cops that arrested him!!! This is insane! One of the most absurd episodes of the entire series. I mean the Klingons shouldn't be tolerated at Worf's FEDERATION trial, let alone be authorized to try him themselves!
Hard Time: I don't see how this could work in the long run. Once the word is out that the prison sentences are not real, and that means soon. I mean, ex-cons talk!!! Then the whole thing wouldn't work. People would know that they are in a simulation and it wouldn't have the same emotional impact on them as it had on Miles.
Shattered Mirror: Nog helping the intendant to escape has to be the stupidest thing ever done by anyone!!! Boy, did he have it coming!!!
The Muse, For The Cause.
Body Parts: Why do the Ferengi authorities have any control over what is going on in the station? When in Rome, do as the Romans do!!
Broken Link: Looks like Quark recovered pretty fast from his recent destitution... He must have had some latinum stashed away!!!

Cathexis.
Nice suspense filled story with good pacing.
Of course, if poor old Chak only had been a little brighter ... if you have the amount of control to take over Paris, change course from navigational control and lockout the normal helm too, you'd think he also could have typed a short mail to Janeway : Hey it's me, you really don't want to go into that dark nebula, and while you're at it, scan Tuvok for alien neural energy, and attached his authorisation code to verify that.... would have saved them all a lot of trouble ...

I started my 25th Anniversary rewatch of Voyager last night, so Caretaker. Last time I tried to do a Voyager rewatch I got up to I think Maneuvers so I hope to get further this time.
"Hide & Q" (TNG)
This is my opening to say I think Q is like an Internet Troll.

-remember that day in the country? You must have been almost five.
-How can I forget it? It was the only day.
-I can still see you on the back of that riding hound. You must have fallen off a dozen times but you never gave up.
-I remember limping home. You held my hand.
-I was very proud of you that day.

The City on the Edge of Forever (TOS Blu-ray)
Parallax, Time and Again, and Phage (VOY)
I'm really noticing some of the easter eggs in these early episodes that will come along again. Kes's telepathic abilities starting to show in Time and Again, B'Elanna becoming Chief Engineer, and Neelix asking if the Doctor can Sing.

Learning Curve
Janeway is pissed off that those insolent Maquis dare interfere with her holodeck program by making some repairs, so she punishes them by assigning them to military boot camp. (Of course they giftwrap it in "those poor Maquis never learnt how we Starfleet people work so let's give them a training course!", but they don't get fooled by that, and neither should we).
Also we learn that the best the EMH can come up with to combat a viral infection is giving the patient fever (gelpacks, in this instance).
