Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x01 "Twovix" and 4x02 "I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee"

I'm late to the party.

"Twovix." Love it. From Jack's advice to Shax at the start through the end, I enjoy this episode. Voyager becoming a museum was a great way to cram a lot of VOY escapades into an episode. I'm going to miss Mariner's, Boimler's, Tendi's, and Rutherford's time together in their hallway bunks, but the promotions are well deserved and bound to happen. I think T'Lyn is a great addition. The ending though, oh, no. Not Ma'ah and the Che'Ta'! I'm betting their demise (seeming? seems likely?) is because of William Boimler or Badgey. Maybe both of them. Keep in mind I'm terrible at guessing.

"I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee." Also love it. First and foremost, yes, I, a grown woman, want a Moopsy plush. Preferably one that says, "moopsy." I was wondering if Mariner's being promoted would go smoothly, and I was not disappointed with how it played out. For all his goofiness, I think Ransom is a great commanding officer. I'm pretty meh on the potential of Rutherford and Livik being adversaries. It seems out of character for Rutherford. But, LD continues to pleasantly surprise me, so I'm keeping an open mind. Boimler's tribulations with his new quarters were funny, and very Boimler. With what happened to the Romulan ship at the beginning of the episode, I'm wondering if the whatever it is will take out a different ship every episode this season.
