Tendi is a bit of an unreliable narrator in regards to orions

this is not hate of tendi or of lower decks, which I love heart and soul. Just a more realistic take on what we have been told.

But I do think it is important to keep in mind her descriptions of orion society are of someone *extremely priviledged* in the social hierarchy and that orion society is very unequal.

She is the rich international student at a university -- she is right to dispel a lot of myths about orion society perpetuated by the more hegemonic power in the sector. But also realize her perspective is heavily influenced by her position as one of the richest families in the planet. Like its good that her grandmother was a scientist on a science ship, and good on them recognizing orion scientific achievements. But was that a position available to the common orion, or like, something wealthy people were able to access in orion society? It is amazing that she is putting aside her privileged position to join starfleet, but is that a possibility for her only because she is wealthy? Like can the guy whose job is to carry divans all day make the same decision? Is she less likely to downplay aspects of society like hormonal coercion, or the slave trade as part of their piracy operations because the wealth of her family allows them to opt out of those aspects of society? Is she to some degree ignorant of societal inequality b/c of her wealth? She sees a lot of orion society as embarrassing and worthy of critique which is laudable of her. But I do think she might have a bit of a myoptic view, too. If you've never read this medium article on the international school class, it is enlightening: https://medium.com/@rachel.engel/an-open-letter-to-the-international-school-community-our-role-in-the-black-lives-matter-movement-c92ba725d93c (on the transnational capitalist class)

#i dont know #maybe i have a case of taking things too seriously #this is not hate on tendi or the amount of lore lower decks has given us #but it does bring up questions #and i like exploring those questions #im a kid like tendi it was easy for me to go abroad to study #and follow my dreams #it wasn't that i wasn't smart #but money helps #and it is easy to forget how much money helps #and say things like “We aren't that rich” #lower decks #star trek lower decks #dvana tendi #d'vana tendi #tendi #orion #orions

Lower Decks Season 4 Episode 6

I am terrified for next week.

s4 ep6 was a serviceable in-between episode and extremely entertaining. I, personally, have been a Tendiford shipper since season 1, and all of the blushes and awkwardness just about killed me. I had to pause every thirty seconds to shriek into a pillow.

Tendi and Rutherford are even closer, if that was ever possible. Mariner is feeling restless. Boimler is spending more and more time away from the group, getting comfortable as a LJG. Ransom is getting closer to his mentee. Freeman is doing Admiral-level diplomacy.

This episode was almost entirely character-centric, and I think they did that on purpose. Giving us snapshots of these beloved characters before tipping us over into new territory. This felt like a last hurrah. The calm before the storm.

A Ferengi vessel was just zapped by the mysterious kill-ship, and the Ferengi just applied to become part of the Federation. The season's Big Bad is getting closer and closer, and the collision isn't going to be pretty.

I rewatched the Season 4 trailer, and pretty much all of the footage shown there has been used. That means that whatever is in these next four episodes, the creators don't want us to see it coming.

Theory-wise, I'm like ninety percent sure it's got something to do with Badgey or Rutherford's past. The Delta Flyer-like design of the ship, plus the fact that the ship always shows up when the crew are talking about overthrowing the Captain (Badgey confessed to 'always monitoring coms' in the s1 finale) screams RUTHERFORD, or at least RENEGADE CREATION OF RUTHERFORD. Badgey is even on the poster! He's bound to rear his glitchy head again this season.

Which brings me to what may be slightly controversial...I don't think those zapped crews are dead. I don't know, I just don't think they would give that one Klingon in Wej Duj that much screentime and personality just to kill him off the second we see him again. It feels wasteful.

Stay with me now. Badgey knows about Pakled systems. What do Pakleds do? They collect. Badgey also knows about Rutherford. What did Rutherford do during the episode when Ramsey was temporary Captain of the Carritos? He developed a new, faster method of transporting that looks different than usual. Zapping people off their ship the second before it explodes is Rutherford-style, all the way. He did it to Ramsey and crew, and again to Red Rutherford during their race.

Maybe Section 31 nabbed the remains of the Texas-class ships and is using Badgey's code to get a leg up on non-Federation species, either to steal their tech and crew or just start a war. We still haven't seen William Boimler since his 'death' during Crisis Point 2.

TLDR: loved the episode, very very scared for future ones. Lower Decks has given us a bucket of loose ends, and I have a feeling it's going to come together into a Gordian Knot of pain.

I LOVE that in star trek lower decks there's soooo much character development- if season one Boimler could have a conversation with season 3 Boimler, they'd be almost like 2 separate, pretty different people (with the same essence)

Lower Decks, season 4 finale observation.

The music for the closing credits, as Tendi walks off screen on the Orion ship, is the the same music, that's played in Hear All, Trust Nothing, when D'Vana took over the Karemma ship.

That's some serious leitmotiv/musical foreshadowing going on there.

I can only imagine the badassery the Mistress of the Winter Constellations will be up to in season 5.

this won’t matter after season 5 so i’ll speak my mind.
