Season 7. Episode 7.2 Ensign Dorothy Gale has been accused of murder. A court martial will generate bad publicity for Starfleet which is already hurting in falling recruitment rates. CPT Ramses discovers that Starfleet is planning to quietly send Gale off to prison without a trial. Ramses challenges Starfleet Chief Judge Robbins on the way ahead. Justice or mercy? What flows is a heated contest of wills and agendas. Complicating the situation further is that CPT Ramses' "old flame" will play a key role in the outcome of this thing called "justice."
 
The graphics and elements in these feel like they've been culled from a hundred disparate sources. I mean, isn't that top of the turbolift shot at 0:39 swiped from an early New Voyages segment? And there's something almost cartoon-like about the whole affair, as exemplified by the cut-away turbolift shot, which would feel at home in a Looney Tunes short. It lends these films this odd "collage" feeling which almost feels like and artistic choice instead of a the rather spit & bailing wire approach that it probably is.
 
Nice effort, @Trek Cruiser. These episodes are not really my cup of tea, but I appreciate all of the hard work you and your team put into it. Fair winds to you. :)
 
I unabashedly love these.
The visuals are charming and sometimes surreal with a haphazard panache.
Juxtaposed with the earnest narrative it takes on the uninhibited air of confident story telling, in a way that a toungue-in-cheek approach could not do.
I'm unsure about the film maker's intent about some aspects, but I like it all the more for those ambiguities.
Whatever it's doing, it's doing it unrelentingly.
