Spoilers Star Trek Academy [spoiler thread]

Apparently episode 5 will be a love letter to DS9. Whatever that means.

I'm guessing that there will be talk of Cisco as he's a religious figure to the Bajorans, who have just joined the Federation.

That was a better episode! I enjoyed this one.

I have realised I’m often unclear whether they’re on the ship or in the San Francisco building. Some of the scenes on the ship today were in rooms I thought were in San Francisco in previous episodes. Clearly they are not since the ship was on a training cruise nowhere near San Francisco.

I like that the bridge is crewed by actual Starfleet officers not cadets. I assume the ship has its regular complement of crew (a few hundred?) — and a couple dozen cadets?

That was really good. I liked the resolution of it, I'm finally enjoying the cadets.

The ship was in space for E1 and E4, at San Francisco for E2 and E3, but most of those interior sets are still in the ship, whether it's in space or not. So Ake's and the kids quarters, the atrium ... most of those sets are parts of the ship.

This episode was great. The solution to the problem was predictable in the good way - of course, if you want to give Klingons a gift they can't accept because it would make them feel weak, you make them fight for it.

A small part of me is disappointed however that the Klingons didn't get past their warrior culture. On the other hand, I have to admit, why have Klingons if they aren't warriors?

If they had gotten past it then they likely would have reverted after The Burn, just for survival's sake.

They present a Klingon medic as an anomaly but presumably Klingons have medics. I mean, maybe they’re so tough that they have pandemics and just soldier on through. Medieval medicine wasn’t great but humanity survived it.

Or they have 4th Edition Warlords. "Walk it off, you p'takh!"
