Does anyone know why Paramount Plus puts the new episode in the Apple TV app as "Up Next" but not in the actual app? P+ is the only app where this happens, but then I do stay up waiting for the new episode (Which is still Wednesday where I'm at). Still, it's weird that Apple TV always jumps the gun when it comes to putting up the next episode, unless it's the actual app that makes that determination. Not entirely sure how that works.

It's up. Probably the latest I've had to wait for it to be up but it's there now. And Peanut Hamper returns. I'm hoping Badgy returns one day.

That was probably my least favorite episode of the series. I gave it a 3 because at least the Cerritos actually did show up, but I didn't like this episode at all. Didn't need a full episode of Peanut Hamper, even though the callback to Agimus was nice.
 
I loved this episode - the characters, change of pace, focus away from Cerritos - until Hamper’s betrayal. She is irredeemable now and that makes me sorry.

Though the ending alongside Agimus was fitting. Supervillain origin story.

Observations:
* The Aerisolans possessed then abandoned warp drive. Did or didn’t Ensign Hamper violate the prime directive?
* Did Peanut face a trial/tribunal before being imprisoned? #sentientrights
* The 2 Aerisolan ships look cool. Immediately felt sore when my brain thought, “Eaglemoss gotta make these”.
** However, the special weapon is just perfect or be adapted into STO. If the ships drop there, I hope they’ll be printable through GamePrint. Their thick wings would be ideal to avoid warping in the resin.
 
Lol... the sex scene was indeed odd... but I suppose it was bound to happen.
Its also the first time Trek showed an organic being having sex with a robot that doesn't look like a humanoid.

I'm also worried about the amount of megalomaniac computers in the 24th century that want to destroy organic life... it was also sad to see Peanut Hamper be put with the rest of them because I was kinda hoping she'd come back to the Cerritos as part of her 'second chance' and maybe become part of the LD group... that would have been more in line with how live action does things... but LD just went into other direction.

I can't help but think if PH actually deserved to be placed with other evil computers... she didn't exactly show tendencies towards destruction of organic life, just selfishness and lack of general interest... but now being wtih Agimus and other evil computers, she's definitely going to be influenced to become an evil sentient computer.
