Mariner: âSo, was the Titan as awesome as everybody says?â
Boimler: "Ah, it was a bunch of complex characters thrown into heavy serialized battles which always ended in mind blowing twists that made me question the basic tenets of my reality.
âBut who Cares about that!?! Tell me more about this Puppet Rave! Thatâs the kind of stuff I live for!â
⌠Iâm feeling really called out by the writing team for why I love LD so much right now. They get me.

Anyone else get the impression and Mariner and Boimler might share a kiss by the end of the season?

Itâs so funny they were playing Clue (Cluedo)! We were just talking about that last month and what if we had a Argo version of the game.

someone else-forum:
Tâlyn (aka âthe Vulcan Marinerâ) even wears her uniform wrong. That head band of hers actually appears (based on width and color) to be the belt all the other Vulcans wear. I imagine a spirited debate the day she showed up for duty like that. âI examined the entire uniform code and all related legal precedent. The belt must be worn, but there is no indication or prior decision as to where it must be worn.â

HehâŚimagine heâs secretly Section 31 and doesnât even realize it.
I really enjoyed the season premier, them stealing the (replica) Phoenix was hilarious. Perhaps Iâm in the minority but the end felt anti-climatic. The teasers and trailers built the season up to be a sort of quest to clear the Captains name and then they literally resolved the whole issue in less than five minutes on the very first episode.
I still liked the episode a lot and look forward to what they do next but I think they could have explored the Captain getting arrested arc a bit more.
Check out the Ready Room for an in depth discussion on why the Freeman innocence was all off screen (hint, itâs the core of the show, the main crew is the A story of their own show⌠but Lower Decks is about the B story featuring the Ensigns). It also was an intentional nod to how unlike in our world where the System canât always be trusted⌠in the Federation, Starfleet will try itâs best to help itâs own⌠so there was nothing Mariner really needed to do except have some faith.
That aside⌠the trailers definitely did not imply clearing Freeman was gonna be a season long thing. Many noticed she seemed to be back on the ship in uniform as Captain in several scenes that looked pretty typical. I didnât know if it would be resolved in one episode or 2 but I suspected it would be quick. McMahon noted they have 10 half hour episodes, this episode is 1/10 of the season⌠they need to get to other stories⌠but stuff in this episode will affect things later, including Marinerâs new handler.
Most importantly though, they got James Cromwell to come back to play holo-Cochrane! And he was quite upbeat about it in his interview segments. He enjoyed it. That made me so happy. Also the Bozeman theme park needs to be added in STO for the next FC day event lol.

I will admit, as much as Iâd have loved to see the whole quest to clear Freemanâs name play out over a few episodes. I have to concede, the way it was handled was pretty perfect for Lower Decks as the show.
