Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x03 - "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

I completely forgot about that.

Just as I completely forgot that Rutherford got his implant replaced at the end of LD Season 1.

Yeah I know. I felt that way when TNG premiered in 1987 as it was very different fron the STAR TREK I know.

I felt the exact opposite! Season 1 was very much like TOS with some visual upgrades.

Blink and you'll miss it?

100% havent't seen it yet, but I don't mind spoilers - they raise anticipation for me.

That said....

How does the ship apparently look exactly like the prime universe model then? Is that explained?

No.

It's not important to the story any more than the same question is to the Mirror universe - a place that could not in fact logically exist. That is clear if you give it a moment's thought. Same with the universe portrayed in "Yesterday's Enterprise."

 

[Quantum21]

This episode is about 85% of City on the Edge of Forever to me. It's that good. There's genuine feeling in this and it looks great. I'm glad they chose Toronto instead of NYC.

I like the way they've recreated Kirk for SNW - they circled the character, first introducing him via a couple of versions who were not entirely the main continuity version, which helped foreground some of the specifics of who he is in essence - what he values, how he relates to people and his goals.

I remember thinking several times while watching this and "Quality of Mercy" that, yeah, this is what he might be like without knowing Spock or McCoy.

I know that we as the audience are not supposed to think about it, but how the hell did Kirk and La'an cross the border and cleared customs when they went to see Pelia in Vermont?

Very carefully

 

[CorporalCaptain]

I thought it was stated that La'an bribed a border guard.

Don't recall that. But if so, both ways?

No, that's Chapel.

Easy solution would of been to have Pelia living in Southern Quebec. But they already used Canada - mainly due to their shooting location. Why confuse the audience a bit more when you can include a more familiar U.S territory in a Time travel story in old Earth

 

[CorporalCaptain]

I was amused, not confused.

Crossing the border into Canada is super easy, barely an inconvenience. All you have to do is end your sentences with "eh" and pronounce the letter Z "Zed" and you're automatically presumed to be Canadian and thus let through.

Ok. Makes sense. Now how about customs on their way back to Canada.

 

[The Wormhole]

Ok. Makes sense. Now how about US customs on their way back to Canada.

I could give a reason, but it would likely be considered too political for this forum.

Also make sure to be carrying a Molson or a Labatt's. And remember to tell the guard you're heading to T'rah-noh. There's always jobs there.

"Wait a minute! Aren't you William Shatner? Canadian national treasure? Come right in, sir!"

Nope. But wait,I thought William Shatner was from Iowa?
