Effie and Dave get stranded on a barren world where giants in fur coats throw evenly-weighted papier-mâché spears at them and have their way with a shuttlecraft. It's wild, maman. No time to bury the dead, let's logic our way through this one, maman.

There's a killer on board, maman. Can't be the pretty blonde waxing about Kirk controlling throbbing power. Gotta be her daddy. He did order a bunch of people dead. Makes sense, maman. Spock says it's logical. All the eye witnesses winding up dead, maman. Time to catch a play.

On this episode we talk where Strange New Worlds Season 3 stands now that the SAG AFTRA strike is over, as well as Lower Decks Season 5 teases from showrunner Mike McMahan, when we can expect to see Prodigy season 1 show up on Netflix, and of course your feedback from Lower Decks 4x10, “Old Friends, New Planets”... it's jam-packed, maman. Thrills and chills. You can cut glass with these pec pokies, maman.

This week we got a real foolie, maman! Time to get bonk-bonked on the head! Olly olly oxen free and so forth... Have some self respect, maman. Stop trying to get the captain to look at your leg scabs.

It’s time to strap in for a little brain drain at the Tantalus Penal Colony. Get ready for Doc Adams to place this retro review into your empty, neuralized mind, maman. Can you see it? That needful eggnog nookie in the Captain's quarters? Hike up your blue skirt a little more, maman. A man could die of loneliness. In a Jim's dream.

Nova Fleet’s here, maman. Mariner and G.D. best get away from that M.F. But everybody’s getting their time to shine, maman. The Mistress of the Winter Constellation about to make a comeback, Boims is playing Captain, and Mariner hopefully gonna straighten up a bit at work. It’s a lot crammed into 25 minutes. Like sardines, maman. Khan-flavored sardines with a side of Twain.

We strip down and take a whirl on a lazy susan to generate our very own life-sized replicas! It's a dire situation, maman. And we have questions. Like who was on the other side of that machine when Korby made Andrea? Is it possible for an android to love? Why did Kirk grab the most phallic of rocks to wallop Ruk in the face with? It's all a mystery, maman.

Got some bigotry on the bridge, maman. No room for it there. Keep it in your quarters, maman. After more than a century the Romulans are back, and they look eerily like the first officer. Is there a spy on board? Or just a d-bag? Tensions are high, maman.
