Yeah and she's cute, but I just figured they could've done that whole scene without dragging the sex part on.

Consequences would be no different then in a simulation.
Did anyone else toy for a minute with the thought that they had killed off SAM - as in, done a Hemmer / Ellen Landry / Helen Flynn from Spooks on her? Especially as she'd had her backstory episode last week, so a bit of airiam thrown in there as well.
How people handle everything going wrong is the point of getting real world experience. Knowing that you don't have to worry about the aliens that are trying to eat you because it is a simulation means that you aren't actually getting experience in how to appropriately handle things like fear and impaired ability to think rationally. Just because you can beat a simulation doesn't mean you are going to be capable when the real no-safeties-to-turn-on event happens.
Seriously, put aside your need to endlessly complain about everything and use logic and common sense for once.
Instructors aren't going to allow cadets to go to locations for field training with "aliens that might try to eat them".
Maybe just actually watch the episode? Because the whole premise was sending the cadets out to a wrecked ship where there were set up challenges and no danger. The only difference between doing it in a holodeck and doing it the way they did in the show was the possibility of random pirate attacks which they absolutely didn't want.
No one ever wants things to go wrong but they often do. Hence why field training will always beat simulations.
That episode was dark. Braka might actually become my favorite villain of New Trek now. He is damn insane, but man does Giamatti chew up the scenery.
This is the best episode of the season.

He left a sock on the door handle.
This was a very satisfying adventure with many twists, some predictable, others surprising! Another 10.
That forcefield scene reminded me of Predators (still watching)
Another comment from me before I go off to find breakfast: I am liking that the show is doing some genre jumping, to take advantage of the episodic format. It feels like it is working better than the dramatic shifts in SNW.
Can't learn if you're dead, which is why simulations beat field training.
I'm hoping this episode sets up an arc to end the season. With 4 episodes left and I know they didn't show the last 4 episodes for reviewers, I'm hoping they keep this momentum going and maybe even address Caleb's Mother in the finale.
Like I said, as an academic, you always use students for work you don't want to do.
