This episode knocked it out of the park. In a season that's been a wee bit hit and miss IMHO (compared to S1), seeing such depth and pathos in a story which could have been handled in a heavy-handed way otherwise, well it's very satisfying.

Andrew Probert: two Enterprises and a DeLorean in the résumé (web.archive.org)
 

My two favorite "vehicles" in all of fandom are the Enterprise-D and the BTTF DeLorean. And what do you know, Andrew Probert had a significant hand in designing both, as well as the first updated Enterprise in Star Trek: TMP. Here's a cool interview with Andrew from back in 2001.

I don't think I've ever screamed so loud at my TV before. I was loosing my shit at this moment. I was stunned. What a high. Possibly one of the best memories of fandom I have in my life now.

Which bartender do you feel was better utilized in their show, Guinan or Quark? in c/startrek@startrek.website

I love the character of Quark, but let's be honest. Guinan is the better bartender, if you're just a regular Starfleet officer looking to down a pint of syntheholic ale.

Weird that they'd bother to take the time to use an accent for "Café" but then misspell Coffee! 😅
