Cojawfee posted:Lal is a great example of when British people decide to just pronounce a word weirdly. Everyone else in the show says her name correctly, except Picard who keeps saying 'laaaal" At least he doesn't say Data's name like "Data" instead of "Data" like everyone else!! I'm lookin at you Dr. Pulaski!!

Snow Cone Capone posted:Know what I just remembered? Jurati acts like Maddox making cookies from scratch is the weirdest, most unknown thing. Sisko's father was a famous chef - did anybody ever get weirded out by someone devoting their lives to manual cooking on DS9? Probably different when they make it their job, as it fills a niche. When it's someone in Starfleet doing it every so often it's more of a "oh that's weird... why?" kind of thing.

I have to wonder what this all means for Calypso. The ship was sitting there for 1000 years and the Federation had become the V'draysh. In 3188 it's still called the Federation so does that mean Calpso might not have occurred for another 1000 years, in the 42nd century?

If they find someone who can tell her not to, that's a resounding success for the guy who now gets a real commission from actual 32nd century Starfleet. If they don't find someone who can tell her not to, then there's no problem with her having done it.

Wheezle posted:Not really a spoiler but she was onboard Discovery at the end of season 2 I think the real question is how does she get back to whatever time her show takes place. Unless it's section 31 in the 32nd century. Which would make no sense.

Seemlar posted:Unspoiling this isn't it isn't one, but why do you think Section 31 wouldn't be in the 32nd century? It's such a strangely common view. My thinking was that it would be extremely weird if someone from 1000 years ago showed up and inserted themselves/took over a shadow government. She doesn't know the time, modern tech, modern factions, so unless everyone at 32nd century Section 31 are tactical morons they don't really need her. Imagine William the Conqueror shows up today, MI5 isn't going to jump at giving him a job. However, this is Star Trek so maybe none of that matters.

MikeJF posted:From the way that they talked about self sufficient and split off, I wouldn't be surprised if most of Sol's colonies just moved back to Earth in the immediate time after the Burn, where you don't suffocate if something goes wrong, and Titan was the only one that said 'nah gently caress you'. Mars would've been the best other candidate to keep going, but assuming it was a shipyard again the planet could easily have been decimated to the point of abandonment. No one travels at warp in a shipyard so it'll have been largely unaffected, other than being rendered less useful as there isn't a demand for interstellar ships anymore.

It is a real shame it's taken 3 seasons for what feels like an actual good season, because any attempts at a rewatch or convincing someone else to watch the show means navigating Klingon sex torture.
