Spoilers Star Trek: Lower Decks 2x09 - "wej Duj"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Some people are making some really un generous assumptions about Ransom's kind gesture at the end of the episode
Seriously. I don't even know WHY this is.
What Freemam says about Boimler would point to that fact that the comman staff is interested in developing Boimler. Giving him a protégé is in the same line of thinking.
What I saw in that situation was respect and the speech Boimler gave to the newbie reminded me of the speech Mariner gave to Boimler in the first season. A passing of the torch, right?
I want T'Lyn and Mariner to date

I dunno, that may be too much wild and crazy for one ship to handle.
Because that’s how I see Ransom and the bridge crew in general. Think he might have mixed motivations.
Even if you think they are passing the buck, choosing Boimler can't be assumed to be an act that is hostile to him. Leaders will delegate to those whom they want to develop.
Two women? Don’t be ridiculous. That’s illogical
Two words: Love triangle. T'Lyn needs to play the field. Date both Boimler and Mariner. It's only logical.
The command staff *love* Boimler. He was on the Titan. He has a double who has the ear of Captain Riker, a guy with heavy ties to the admiralty. Freeman wants command of a top tier ship, maybe even an Enterprise, and these kinds of connections are her way in (it's why she has that huge shelf of collectibles).
Boimler proved last episode that he is the most capable officer onboard, proven by statical analysis. If fostered correctly, he might make good command potential, and Freeman and Ransom (the top two officers and probably the most ambitious outside of the Redshirts Club) want to be on his good side when he makes that ascent.
T'lyn is Mariner's Vulcan clone. A lot of references to TUC.
Isn't Mariner attracted to "Bad-Sexual", I highly doubt T'Lyn would fit that stereo type.
Plus, this is the third or fourth time this season that Ransom has either acknowledged outright that Boimler is doing good work or put him on assignments that show he thinks highly of his skills. The command staff are coming to think of him as reliable. So no, I wouldn't read sending the newbie Brad's way as hostile or dismissive; I read it as more that Ransom still has a decently good opinion of Boimler, despite his tripping up on the sucking up.
Sooo....are we getting a new permanent character in the Klingon lady or is she just gonna play a role in the season finale?
