Spoilers Star Trek: Lower Decks 2x09 - "wej Duj"

There's a reason why Migleemo doesn't like getting physicals from T'Ana.

 

I now want at least one shot of T'Ana pawing at the water in the aquarium.

 

I loved it! Really fun ep.

 

Finally saw this one. Another gem. I wish more of them were like this.

9/10

 

That didn't stop T'Pol from getting it on with Trip

 

I thought it would have been funny to have at least one guy showing up for Battleststions in a dress.

Officer - something wrong Lt?
Lt - No sir, I just wanted to feel pretty.
Mariner - c'mon, didn't you see him booking it down the corridor, and in heels no less, you gotta give him points for that.

 

I thought I saw a man in a dress...

 

I never noticed that, but now I love it.

 

There was a man running down a corridor during red alert wearing a ruff and Elizabethan dress (possibly this science lt.cmdr?). Poor guy was disturbed from whatever he was doing while wearing the same outfit in an earlier episode, but I can't remember which one (the perils of stock footage).
While we're on the subject, it's worth mentioning that the woman running next to him is wearing a costume that was (I think) traditionally worn by men.

I thought this was an excellent bit of representation! I just want to be clear that I don't find a man wearing a dress to be funny in and of itself (and I'm sure you and most other people don't either), but the impracticalities of a dress in certain situations like "booking it down the corridor, and in heels no less" () could be (and was in this case) rather amusing

 

Oh wow! There was a dude in an Elizabethan era dress. Good eye! The scene happened so fast I only saw Napoleon, but now I see the guy in the dress, and Troi and Crushers's workout gear.

 

On the other hand, she thought her engagement had been broken at the time. I’m sure they could find some way to work around it so T’Lyn could be with a human. Maybe her parents decided to let her pick her own bond mate or her bond mate died young, etc.

 

I was trying to sleep at 4 o'clock this morning, and out of nowhere, in the Pakled voice, my brain just starts saying "Red Alarm. Red Alarm. Red Alarm." and I got the giggles.

Actually, he's from the Moon. Later in the episode he admits he lied about being from Hawaii because one of his former COs was from Hawaii and he wanted to fit in. Then it turns out the other two lower deckers were from a Moon of their own homeworlds, and they're all friends again, except for Boimler, who insists Modesto is California's moon.

 

My eyes possibly deceived me, but I swear I saw Klingons bleed pink AND red in the fight scenes, which if true would be a hilarious nod to a beloved discontinuity. I'll have to roll the tapes.
No buttholes or alien monkey sex, so I have to deduct one star, but otherwise a perfect episode.

 

That would be in keeping with DSC which has shown both pinkish and red blood coming from Klingons. DSC for all its missteps with Klingons got that one right, preserving the balance of colors.

 

Great episode, with a well linked story and some laugh out loud moments.
But the Borg "Lower Decks" credit gag was knee-slapping funny. A top ten moment for me.

 

The music when the Cerritos and Vulcan ship start pounding on the Pakled ship is very ST6.

 

A lot of things in this episode are very ST6.

 

I'd like to take a moment and just say how awesome the animation was this episode, especially with the Vulcan ship exterior sequences. That looked damned cinematic, IMO.

 

Not only do they have redundant organs, they have redundant blood as well.

 

perhaps they have two circulatory systems, one with red blood cells and the other with pink blood ones!
