Tendi just wanting to play in the sand is cute.

Boimler being completely fed up with the assignment is great - he knew exactly what he was walking into, but did it anyway (I'm glad it actually had payoff at the end).

Rutherford has finally resolved badgey, and seemingly learnt nothing.

I didn't feel like mariner had a whole lot to do in this episode, she just kind of tagged along.

I think they want to ease her into the cast instead of suddenly having five mains.

Rutherford has finally resolved badgey

I don't know about calling it resolved. Badgey is now an omnipotent being currently not interested in killing Rutherford or the Federation. It might not stay that way necessarily.

By this reasoning you could say that no story is resolved until the character is dead. Anybody could always come back and cause trouble.

Especially the one who specifically called out the Black Mountain when they were ascending.

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Yes. Like Q, who is... an omnipotent being.

Rutherford learned to value his creations unconditionally without caring what other people think of them
