Pike's Wheelchair was Nightmare Fuel

[fireproof78]

exactly it was Pike at his low. We saw this a few times another exsmaple is Matt Decker

It's what makes Pike enjoyable for me. He's not a larger than life action hero; he's just a man.

“McGill”

That one may have been a one-time reference but I wouldn't exactly call it a 'throwaway'.

That’s fair.

Certainly more expository, and says more about who he is than the others that easily could have never come up in BCS.

Really put it in with the others due to what they were able to build around with just a birth surname.

All the alt reality counterparts of the cadets Pike saved in the prime reality have yet to be cadets as of the end of Beyond. I wonder what happens to them.

Because of SNW, we know Pike has a model for self-sacrifice in his girlfriend-turned-illusory-wife, who gives her life to restrain a foe and protect the universe, whereas he will give his health to preserve a smaller group of lives.

Yup. But it is pretty crazy how much they got from throw away lines and references on BB;

“McGill”
“Lalo” and “Ignacio”
“I convinced her that I was Kevin Costner”
“This places needs a Danny” and so on

Yes! Amazingly written series. I think it's better than Breaking Bad, personally.

BETTER CALL SAUL had more characters you wanted to root for than BREAKING BAD, anyway.

(I think they are both excellent shows, though in some respects I do think BETTER CALL SAUL is the better of the two.)

I might have thought Kirk with his interest in history, might have read about Morse Code.

He knows what the episode requires him to know. Lincoln shows up, guess who's suddenly a Lincoln fanboy?

Or the gang find themselves in a stylized representation of Tombstone, AZ in 1881, and Kirk suddenly becomes an expert on a minor incident in American history.

Kirk's such a know it all

What else would you expect from a “stack of books with legs”?

He should have met Spinoza not Lincoln
