Trivia

Captain Durango is the first Tellarite to be seen on screen since "Terra Prime" (2005), who appears to have the appearance of other Tellarites of that era.

Goofs

When Shaxs enters the turbolift that Mariner is lubing, he turns around just as the doors close to reveal that he's wearing 3 solid rank pips, indicating he's a commander. But in all other scenes, he's wearing 2 solid pips of a lieutenant. Since the credits list him as Lt. Shaxs, it would seem the commander pips are erroneous.

User Reviews

Lower Decks on the rise.

This episode was good without the benefit of novelty. It was cool to see a tellarite, the character dynamics seem to be improving every episode. Stop treating this like it's anything but a fun parody-type show and it's actually quite okay.
