It doesnt change a lot for Freeman, it seems like.
But in an instant, everything changes for Mariner.
Its unsurprising here that Boimler had absolutelyzerochill when he found out the secret.
(Way to go, Starfleet, for clearly keeping an eye on the Pakled situation!)
After a moment of self-doubt, Mariner, of course, comes through for her mom.
He turns to his old nemesis, Badgey, who has not one butthreecomputer viruses ready for the Pakleds.
Shax and Rutherford head over to the Pakled ship to introduce the virus, but only Rutherford returns home.
Our favorite aggressive Bajoran Shax (whom I absolutely love and am crushed!)
sacrifices himself to save the Cerritos.
In the end, its the USS Titan, with Captain William Riker (!!!)
Mariner ispissedbeyond belief that Boimler left without telling her.
Tendi is at Rutherfords bedside.
It would certainly present some new challenges.
All in all, this was a strong and well-written first season.
But I really like the overarching story here, and the character development in both Boimler and Mariner.
Captains Log
The TOS era now stands for Those Old Scientists.
If you dont like it, sorry, I dont make the rules; Ransom does.
I cantbelievethat an Exocomp became a Starfleet officer; except I can because this show cuts so deep.
What happened to the Exocomps after the synthetic-life-form ban fromStar Trek: Picard???
I love Will Riker so much, its kind of unreasonable.
This was a really nice cameo.
This is a great show.
