Episode Description

Anika and Liz take a quick trip to the Khionian Realm to attend Darem's wedding, then follow along as Caleb and Genesis get up to hijinks. We're watching Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's "Ko'Zeine", and discussing: 

  • Um. Did we make this episode happen? 
  • It's a spring break episode, but no girls are going wild, no one is going to the beach (except Kyle, alone), and none of the usual cliches are deployed
  • Except the Star Trek Wedding Cliches, which we do love to see subverted, what if this time a man was passively going along with everything? What if there was a little less gender? What if Jay-Den wore a beaded gown? 
  • Darem and Genesis continue to be mirror images
  • The Caleb and Genesis show! Are we … meant to be shipping them? Remember when Liz was like, "There's no way we're meant to be shipping Spock and La'an, that would be really stupid"? We remember. 
  • Genesis and toxic perfectionism
  • Caleb, Genesis and Darrem: all command-coded in different ways, with different problems to overcome
