Observations and thoughts as I watched (initially posted at the other place):

  • We begin with "Twovix".

  • Holodeck waste material, AKA jizz, poop, and god knows what else.

  • Oh, hey, T'Lyn!

  • DAT VOYAGER THEME!

  • Oh, hey, the probe from the one with the whales!

  • Neelix cheese!

  • Shit did get freaky.

  • Oh shit, they're going to Tuvix Billups and T'ana!

  • "Janeway straight-up murdered Tuvix."

  • MACROVIRUS.

  • The Pike Thing, of course.

  • "Back in the 70s"

  • "Captain, I caution against socializing with the organism."

  • So many VOY deep cuts.

  • "Holy shit. Janeway didn't mess around."

  • Macrovirus of Borg. And robotic warp salamander of Borg.

  • "Water, room temperature."

  • This is definitely T'Ana's side of T'Llups.

  • Oh god, they tuvixed the Matt the whale! Wait, what about Kimolu? Is he alright? Is he okay?

  • A Tuvixy meatball!

  • Heh, the real solution to the Tuvix conundrum was just to keep merging until it's a nonsentient blob of meat so there is no murder, so to speak.

  • Oh god I just realized that we're going to get so much Tuvixy fanart.

  • Bizarre series of Voyager-themed obstacles.

  • SHE GOT A PIP

  • Beckett Mariner receives the fate worse than death for her: promotion.

  • Nothing ever good happens "somewhere in Klingon space"

  • RIP Klingon lower-deckers.

And now, episode 2:

  • Heh, Romulan lower decks.

  • Goodbye, Romulan lower deckers!

  • Heh, those 80s workout stuff.

  • Oh, cool, Boimler still has his Tom Paris tplate!

  • Please tell me Denty has a Memory Alpha page.

  • The Nacelle is right there!

  • Non-botanicals

  • I have just met Moopsy but I would die for it.

  • Oddly enough, this is the SECOND time this year that a Jack Quaid character looked at a VERY bright light. Shoutout to my boy Richard Feynman, the one man crazy enough to watch a nuclear test without goggles.

  • Okay, I would no longer die for the moopsy.

  • Tucker Tubes! Good old Trip got stuff named for him!

  • The Ad Astra Per Aspera poster!

  • I do feel like Starfleet would have better soundproofing, but then again this is the Cerritos.

  • RIP corn guy.

  • LIVIK!

  • Aww, D'Vana Tendi giving orders.

  • Teeth as bread crumbs.

  • Heh, the humans really are the worst.

  • Hah, he could have just used the viewports.

  • Overall, I think I liked this second episode more, even though I loved the VOY fan service.
