It was an OK episode for me, but not among the best ones.

The Rutherford and tendi sections were all quite hilarious, though, I’m left wondering were the true “cleaner” ended up and how Rutherford got to the gorn wedding.
 
Should the Gorn female have visible breasts? 'Cause, y'know, reptile and not mammal? :lol: Other than that one little thing, great episode!

Well, since McCoy's dialogue in Into Darkness suggests that the Gorn give birth like mammals rather than laying eggs the way normal reptiles would, I suppose it's possible they could have other mammalian characteristics, such as mammaries.
 
I prefer the Gorn being slightly different animals.

I get weirded out when I see dogs on alien planets, even more so than every race looking mostly human.

I get it. I can accept the fact that Kryptonians look exactly like us, and yet, for whatever reason, I have a harder time suspending my disbelief for Krypto the Super Dog.
 
I gave it an 8. better than last week.

- Really liked the whole Rutherford Implant reboot sequence front to back.

- Liked that fact that if you try and follow what's going on, theyh decided to steal an old Romulan BoP from a Starfleet ship museum.:rofl:

- Liked the Catian Doctor getting on the wrong ship and thinking it was a parallel universe because aspects of that crew DID look similar to the crew of the Ceritos.

As for the Q cameo - IDK didn't sound like John De Lancie to me, but I guess it was.
 
I hadn't been rating the episodes lately because in my mind I had no idea what a 10 for Lower Decks looked like. Now that I have my bearings, my ratings for the episodes thus far are:

"Second Contact" --> 7
"Envoys" --> 8
"Temporal Edict" --> 7
"Moist Vessel" --> 9
"Cupid's Errant Arrow" --> 7
"Terminal Provocations" --> 6
"Much Ado About Boimler" --> 8
"Veritas" --> 10
Average (so far) --> 7.75
 
8
This was very good, but I appreciated it especially much later, when the whole thing started to come together and the jokes became funnier. For some reason, Romulan causually mentioning he hates Remans and Sub Rosa reference made me quite giggle. Boimler stays to be the least proactive character and thet needs to change.
 
When Captain Freeman beams on the bridge, she's in a crouched position, reminded me of Spock beaming down to Vulcan in ST09.
