Like mariner is just wearing her Starfleet bra under her uniform jacket?

I think it's pretty cool that they did this in the Lower Decks style. It's a lot more fun this way.

Yes I know Cetecean Ops wasnt started by LD, but I’d like to think LD set the precedent for the franchise to be a lot more comfortable in using it. And its also worth noting that the 2nd time we have seen Cetecean Ops on another ship (USS Voyager-A in Prodigy), the whales there were not in uniform. Not even when we see the Mirror Universe Voyager-A where even the whales are evil.

So, is there or is there not a USS San Clemente? In one of the season, one episodes, an Admiral said there isn’t, but in the episode with all the Cali class ships, there was.

It's Kareoke Night on the Cerritos! Aside from Klingon Acid Punk hits, what songs are the Warp Drive Five belting out? Frankly, I think all five of these nerds would go as hard as they can with Pink Pony Club, but what songs do you think each of them would favor?

In spite of there not being a TO BE CONTINUED at the end, I view Trusted Sources and The Stars At Night as a two part episode.

This episode DEFINITELY pulled no punches. With what seemed like Mariner causing trouble, to her mother banishing her off the Cerritos to Starbase 80. The surprise Breen attack and the reveal of the USS Aledo.

And boy howdy, the truth revealed the other crew were speaking slander and Mariner...Mariner spoke the truth from her heart.

Plus, she resigned and in the last minutes we see her and Petra Aberdeen, going on archeological adventures.

It was a bittersweet episode, I will admit. But what would follow, would shake the foundations of the show and lead to an episode of epic proportions.

Another day, Another LD episode anniversary (It's still the 60th of the franchise)

Today 3 years ago, one of my faves of Season 4 debuted with Mariner giving a dialogue that I love to this day, when she learns the Beta Shift reunions mission is studying moss in a cave.

Mariner: (groan) "I hate caaaaaaa-- (transports) --aaaaaves!" (Also why I chose the screen cap, Just seeing Mariner's loathing of caves...priceless and still makes me laugh.

It's a bottle episode, with each of the Warp Core Four telling of a cave mission they've been on and use the lessons learned to help out their situation.

Boimler and Levy encountering Vendorians, Rutherford mentions how he and Dr. T were trapped and yes, I was blown away by the alien Thusa and her species ability to procreate by dermal contact, Mariner how she and Delta Shift crashed plus she and Karavitus got accelerated aged via time dilation chronitons. And Tendis...well not a cave story...but a story close to her heart of her first day on the Cerritos (Yes Episode 1) but her story takes place after the episodes end. And it works from my perspective.

This whole episode is humor and heart. Plus who doesn't get feels with the Vendorians final dialogue:
"It appears that junior officers have rekindled their friendship."
"By not allowing their new responsibilities to destroy what's truly important, they have passed our test."
"Should we unblock their communications?"
"Nay. Let them enjoy this moment for a little longer."

Gets a smile from me every time.

How do you think the different members of the Warp Drive Five would handle being temporarily in charge of a small group of children? With Mariner, I could see her going full Cool Aunt/Mischief Enabler. I could also see her trying to do that, but when shit gets serious or her patience wears thin, she says something that reminds her of her mother and has an unwanted revelation. Boimler would probably get overwhelmed, but also be very good at spotting budding neurodivergences and getting the meds they need from the replicator. T'lyn I think would surprise herself by doing very well. Rutherford seems like a chill figure who is good at emotional support. Tendi I could see trying to be a good adult authority but the strain would show, or she just falls back on her Eldest Daughter experience but it turns out Orion parenting techniques don't map one-to-one with whatever species their involved with. Do you agree or disagree? Explain your reasoning.

This is a spot to talk about Cerritos crew members who aren't part of the Warp Drive Five or the bridge crew.

Lt. Jr. Grade Castro: Smells overwhelmingly of patchouli oil. Definitely the kind of person who weaponizes therapy speak and uses "narcissistic" to describe every bad ex she's ever had. When she makes somebody cry, she refers to their behavior as "emotional blackmail".

Jennifer Sh'reyan: This gal would absolutely go nuts for Edward Albee plays

Ensign Barnes: Seems nice and sweet. She is into stuff that would make Hellraiser look like an episode of Bluey. She has kinks that you need to independently research because they aren't in the big book.
