Tinnitus Sufferers Beware
7 July 2023
Although I enjoyed this episode, as someone who suffers from tinnitus, I found the show difficult to listen to. As the synopsis explains, some crew members suffer memory loss while exploring the planet. What you should be aware of, especially if watching in full surround sound, is the sound engineers chose to depict memory loss with a high-pitched tone resembling ringing in the ears. Personally, I found myself blocking my ears to get through these scenes. There are MANY of these scenes.

I just thought I should give that heads-up to fellow sufferers.

I enjoyed the story and liked that part of the episode revolved around Lt. Ortegas. From a storytelling perspective, the writers did a nice bookend with her character. Otherwise, the episode has nothing groundbreaking to add to the overall series, but it's decent filler.
