Gotta hide from the monsters by making sure you're under or inside the duvet! It's perfectly rational.

I want to high five that giant cat paw.

Switched it to the bottom only to find out it didn't matter one bit and was still just as hard to reach there as it was at the top. Moved it back to the top because that's where my brain looks for it.

The Back to the Future trilogy. It'd only be a slight exaggeration to say I've watched those movies hundreds of times.

I got it as a gift so I don't know what it's called to search for it. It looked like a giant macaron so that's how I referred to it.

Upon initial read I thought the cat was trying to poop with you interrupting it by taking pics.

I would follow any and all life advice from this old man.

There was at least one unnamed, previously unseen red shirt on the bridge as well. That was a hint there was going to be a body count. Of course, it could also mean that no one dies and the production staff are just playing into our expectations.

It's from IKEA. I wanted to get a second one for a different room but they no longer sell them in the U.S. as far as I can tell.

HOLY CRAP, I AM SO GLAD I WENT INTO THIS SPOILER FREE!!!1!

Someone posted earlier this week that it looked like Captain Batel was having a really bad day, and yup, she definitely was. My heart sank when she revealed the Gorn egg infestation. My money's on her being the sole "main" character casualty from the events of this episode.

I didn't know Scotty was going to show up so that was a total surprise. Finding out he was Pelia's perfect student who somehow flunked made all the sense in the world, ignoring the obvious small universe complaints.

I LOVED all the effects shots of the Cuyuga's debris field. I initially thought crashing the remains of the saucer section into the Gorn jammer was complete overkill, like throwing a dinner plate at a toothpick, but then realized the jammer must have been absolutely massive and far away from the settlement. It looked like it was relatively nearby upon initial viewing which didn't appear to be the case considering the explosion from when the saucer section hit it.

That cliffhanger, wow. I pray that they have the second half already written and aren't going to do like TNG and wait to write the conclusion. It was mentioned in the TNG Companion that the writers only wrote the first part of their season ending cliffhangers and waited until closer to filming to write and finalize the second part which doesn't seem like the best way to develop a strong resolution.

I love SNW so much. It's going to be an agonizing wait until the new season, probably 2025 at this point? Argh.

EDIT: I swear I didn't read any posts in this thread before posting my thoughts. I'm glad and amused to see we Trek fans had many of the same reactions!
