REVIEW 2022
7 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Spot's trapped under the bed, she's been misbehaving... does she need training? When the majority of trivia and goofs are only about Spot there has to be something wrong.

And that was the pre-title intro. Is this going to be a show about Spot?

Now we have a disappearance of the medical transport Fleming which has gone missing somewhere in the Hekaras Corridor. This is a region of space where there is an unusually intense tetryon field which poses a severe navigational hazard. The Hekaras Corridor is the only safe passage through this field.

Geordi feels that he is in competition with Chief Engineer of the Intrepid: Commander Donald Kaplan.

We are still being distracted with talk of Data's cat. Where are we going with all this?

The Ferengi are up to no good as usual. Ferengi say buoy (boo-ee). In England we say buoy (boy), but this has nothing to do with this story.

So, we have the main story that continues as a search for the missing Fleming and the run-in with the Ferengi.

The secondary story revolves around Spot the Cat and ongoing attempts at training him/her. Oh, and we are still in competition with the Intrepid Chief Engineer who we will never actually meet.

Thankfully, the two nice aliens, Serova and Rabal have beamed aboard are provide a much needed distraction from the ongoing cat coaching question.

Is it me, or are the writers and the cast just going through the motions? We know we are in our last season and we know that budgets have been stripped down and given to DS9. I can understand why they would try to cobble together a story using old TNG stock images. That's bound to save a few dollars. This show's turned into a rescue mission which we know will finally be resolved to everyone's satisfaction, except Serova's. Now she lives only amongst the stars. I believe my time would have been better spent in the company of Deanna Troi down in the swimming pool.
