Why bother making such a specific threat then??

To cause a reaction.

 

[Quantum21]

To cause a reaction.

It makes me (if I were a Federation officer) not take her seriously.

Well, threats can be an effective strategy. Especially from a foe with superior fire power.

Ok, and?

To prompt a reaction is to gain information. Which, if I'm your adversary, is absolutely what I want to gain. How will you react to this threat? Will you fight? Run away? Do nothing? Everything gives me information about you, your mindset, and how you will respond. Not taking it seriously is wonderful information.

That line from the enemy in that clip
“The Titan is right where it should be”
Interesting phrasing. Maybe they have a tracking device? Some way to predict where they'll be?

I see a huge ship with a heavy firepower, I'm worried, afraid. Vadic probably knows that.

If she makes a threat, and doesn't follow through, the threat is there but I've already counter-punched and ran. She didn't follow through. I now know I can get around her, and probably even call for help.

I no longer fear her the same way. I've learned too.

Good. Use it.

Vadic may not want you to fear at all but to become overconfident.

I can use this lack of fear so many different ways.

If I were a really good writer, I'd still have them huddle with Riker and use his tactical skills displayed in Peak Performance, Best of Both Worlds, and Insurrection. Show me Matalas.

We're two sections in to this story.

There's still time.*



*Except there really isn't and I have given up all hope...



...on this season.

 

[Anson Mount Seleya]

The Shrike is the kind of crap ship that people make parodies of and of fanboys more generally, It is stupidly armed,

When you put it like that, it does remind me of the Scimitar.

Preview for tonight episode

Just as long as none of it involves an atari joystick steering column

 

[fireproof78]

All the call backs.

 

[TerryTrek]

My only concern is Shaw getting injured and handing over command seemed a bit too quick and obvious. Perhaps it was just the way it was edited there.

Hopefully it plays out better in the actual episode.

 

[gvn2fly]

No clip at the end of the ready room for 3.4?

 

[Reanok]

Twitter had a preview for episode 4 it looks very exciting.

 

[NCC-73515]

Just more sinking and then the bright light from the trailer

 

[No Grave Marked]

Just more sinking and then the bright light from the trailer

Wanna bet (at some point next week):

Spoiler

Beverly Crusher: "WESLEY!..."

Traveler: "MOM!...Errr, I mean: I'm THE TRAVELER...formerly know as Wesley..."

 

[NCC-73515]

The light will say: One moon circles! And Troi will ask the appropriate follow-up question: Where are you?

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

The light just has to be these guys. This is their home.

Spoiler: something fishy
