UGGHHHH don’t remind me of S2 PIC.

Nobody even asks where Soji goes!! And then she’s just not there anymore, and NOBODY EVEN NOTICES, even though she was the main character of S1.

Ugh, S2.

I’m a big fan of Tig Notaro’s from WAY back when she was a jobbing comedian, selling t-shirts that said “NO MOLESTE” to make money on the road. I’m just a little, umm, twitchy about Far Future stories. Hopefully they get better.

Well, uhh, Locarno gets his star in the end. (Planet?)

Honestly, Nick Locarno, even when called on the carpet, is more distinguished-looking than Tom Paris at any point in VOY. Here’s my takeaway from this episode: #TNGSunNight

But, they’re twins. And they do everything together, Harry. Everything.

You guys are making worried about this upcoming Academy show.

Like, everything we’ve seen about Starfleet Academy so far in other shows has been kind of a mess. What’s it gonna look like in the far future?

Huh, the Blu-rays repeat the footage of Wesley walking up to Picard on the Academy quad immediately after getting yelled at by Picard here 🤔

Damn, Picard is STILL MAD about Wesley being on the Bridge that one day. Five years ago.

Ooh, Picard is PISSED. But note that he’s seated while he’s berating Wesley here. This is Picard’s power move.

Oop, Wesley’s been called to the Principal’s office.

“Mom, don’t try to protect me.”

That really should have been a sign. And maybe it was—maybe this is why Picard goes sniffing in the direction he does. But since this is essentially one of the first lower-decks episodes, we don’t see that part of the senior staff’s discussions.

The Vulcan just said “sensor” without the long O! What a kick in the pants!

Wow, do Riker, Worf, or Troi even appear in this one?

After the scene with the four surviving members of Nova Squaddddddd, I think I just realized something. Mariner is almost the fifth wheel on this, umm, pentagon.

It’s not always the crime. Sometimes it’s the coverup.

This episode is a prime example of where CYA goes horribly wrong. #TNGSunNight

We don’t hear at all from Hajar! A lacuna. She also has the fewest lines of all of Nova Squadron in “The First Duty.”

Now I’m wondering if Sito’s nose bridge Bajoran crossbar appears later. By then, DS9 was up and running…guess I’ll find out in several weeks.

#TNGSunNight, I’m at Dragon Con now. But enjoy a shot of Robert Duncan McNeill, Robert Picardo, Tim Russ and Garrett Wang from a 30 Years of Voyager panel I attended earlier today, front row. I should be back with you next week. #TrekSky

Atlanta native Robbie McNeill hugs Picardo, who sits next to Tim Russ, while Garrett Wang looks on at Dragon Con 2025

#TNGSunNight I mean sure what's Wesley is going through is rough, but you know they all died several times last week

Soundkeeper @soundkeeper.bsky.social · 4h

This Vulcan captain is, umm, kind of emotional, right?

And thank the Great Bird of the Universe that they fixed Sito’s eyebrows later. Whoof.

True. It’s just a surprise that a late-season episode would have this much footage missing. S1 or S2, I wouldn’t be so taken aback.
