Too many fart jokes in a single episode! This is Star Trek, not Cartoon Network.
And why does Gwyn have Jedi powers? Why are they copying Star Wars so obviously?
This episode was painful to watch it had so many plotholes and inconsistencies:
- Why does a star ship have to land on a planet to do a survey? Have the writers forgotten about the transporter? In the history of Star Trek they've never landed on a planet for a routine survey!
- They show us that the phasers are set on stun, but later when used they are set to kill.
- It's mentioned that the tricorders track everyone but later Rok doesn't know who is near her when she uses her tricorder and panics because of this.
- Jankom Pog is wearing a space suit the whole time but still can smell everything on the planet and hallucinates because of the spore. Space suits should be air proof.
- How can spores infect a non biological machine like Zero and cause hallucinations? It was stated that he doesn't have a corporeal body and is only controlling the machine body with his mind.
- How can someone hack a computer and an A. I. with the push of a few buttons when the tech is centuries ahead of what they've got in the Delta Quadrant?
- Do the writers even know what a slime is? There is a scene with a slime getting stuck. But slimes have a gelatin body and can shapeshift into any form. It's impossible for them to get stuck!
