[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 8641273, member: 6684958"] S1E3 Well, this is a mixed up episode. I think it might have been a rough draft written on a napkin and they had to make episode three for some reason. Pike goes on this Away team just so the plot can happen...sigh. And like many sad "new" type shows...they have to have "action" ALL the time so a certain type of person in the aduiance does not get bored. Like where Pike and Spock "run" from a storm...... Guess they waited three whole shows before they started to ruin characters with New Trek Problems. As everyone must have 'secret problems' that make them different. So Number One gets effected by something....and lies about it. Just like every idiot character ever in fiction. So Chief Engineer says he will run a "level 5 diagnostic" that will take all night ....um, does someone not know the Star Trek diagnostic scale goes from 5 "just look at it" to 1 "take offline and disassemble"? Is there some reason no one says the word quarantine? So cadet quarters are unisex? And are HUGE! But cadets sleep in tiny closets? That room could hold several king size beds..... So why does Hemmer think a glowing part of the mantle will be "so bright"? Artifical light is way, way, way, way more bright then any natural light. They have lamps one billion times brighter then the sun. The "she carries the man down the hallway" sure is a long bit. And now they ruin Una....she was an interesting strong female character....and sigh, now she is just a silly Super Hero. Guess she is now like a Captain Marvel rip off now? How lame.... And sure Una hid her race and augment status....somehow? And...er....why do some people just turn on a light to get more light....and some are like "blow up the ship!" I guess Una walked to the warp core to stop Laan? Wonder why she did not fly with her super powers? Wonder why the warp core is not connected to the computer voice control? Or why could not Una, even more so as "acting captain" not over ride the warp core tampering? Or localize the command codes? Pike worries the storm might flatten the house.....the house that has stood for years and years of storms? And they cure the crew in seconds? And sigh the broken doctor has been hiding his daughter in the sick bay pattern buffer? So they can't use that transporter, right? And did M'Benga guard the room 24/7...even during the refit? And does now broken and ruined and criminal Una tell Pike about broken and criminal M'Benga? Or does she further ruin her character by keeping another secret? And...um...when Doc beams his daughter out to read her a story....um, does not her skicness spread? He just said a couple minutes ago the transport kept her in stasis... And Pike seems a little odd not caring he was tricked and lied too by someone he THOUGHT he could trust. Or will Pike join with the rest of his criminal crew and hide Una from Starfleet? So, now half the crew are criminal lying disloyal selfish monsters.....and the creators think this is a good thing? Like it's cool? [/QUOTE]
