Grounded (episode)
Mariner enlists her friends on a rogue mission to exonerate her mother as Captain Freeman faces a military tribunal for the destruction of Pakled Planet. Summary Teaser "I'm Sylvia Ront, and this is FNN's continuing coverage of the destruction of Pakled Planet. What we know at this hour: Starfleet Captain, Carol Freeman stands accused of orchestrating a devastating attack on the Pakled capital; a place they call, "Big Strong City." The remains in spacedock impounded for further investigation; her crew on temporary leave while their captain stands trial. And the latest shocking development, new surveillance footage retrieved from the attack that appears to place Freeman on the ground at the time of the bombing. In "lighter" news, a swarm of incandescent verugament will be illuminating Earth tomorrow." Beckett Mariner throws a potted plant in a rage at a viewscreen in her father's home. Frustrated that people are acting like the trial is over before it's concluded, she remains steadfast in her claims that Freeman is innocent in Pakled Planet's destruction. Her father, Alonzo Freeman, shares her belief, but tells her to remain patient, and to trust in the system that she will be found innocent. Mariner is doubtful the same system that put her on trial in the first place would find her innocent and feels useless while off the Cerritos. Alonzo gets a transmission from Admiral Les Buenamigo who tells them that the judge assigned to Carol's case is Mith bin Tong, a renowned conservative planets' rights activist. No longer convinced that the trial will end favorably, Mariner decides to act on her own accord since no one else will do anything to save Carol and leaves the home breaking more things as she screams. Act One Bradward Boimler is working at his family's raisin vineyard as Mariner tells him about how she intends to do something before her mother is found guilty, and Boimler eagerly accepts to help, as he finds daily life in the vineyards to be unbearable. They discuss how they were saving the at the time of Pakled Planet's destruction, and Mariner notes that they can't prove it, since the ship's logs were corrupted by the Lapeerian debris field, making it seem like Freeman is covering something up. Boimler then gets an idea to use his own logs as evidence, since he personally re-records the captain's official logs for his own reference. Excited that they have a lead, they just need to figure out a way to get aboard the Cerritos, since they don't know where it is, and it likely only has a skeleton crew of engineers aboard, leading them to wonder if Samanthan Rutherford is aboard. In New Orleans at Sisko's Creole Kitchen, Rutherford and D'Vana Tendi are enjoying a meal of gumbo and their time on Earth, since Tendi was never able to experience locations on Earth during her time at Starfleet Academy. As they decide between going to a London Kings game or visiting Historical Bozeman, they see a news bulletin providing an update to Freeman's trial, and wonder how Mariner is handling everything, just as Mariner shows up with Boimler. They discuss Mariner's plan to sneak aboard the Cerritos but are unsure of the ethics surrounding it. Tendi suggests just telling the courts about Boimler's logs, but Mariner believes doing so would just allow Starfleet to cover them up, allowing a captain to be a scapegoat for what really happened. Rutherford tells them he knows where the Cerritos is, but that the only way to the specific spacedock it's at is via a special encrypted transporter. They make their way to the building where the transporter is, and Rutherford warns them that they'll likely have to take out the transporter chief, who is a long-time veteran of Starfleet Security. While scared of taking on such an elite member, Mariner believes them to have the element of surprise, and superior numbers, and they rush in, only to find a gentle, kind-hearted elderly transporter chief named Carlton "Denny" Dennis. He welcomes them inside, believing them to be students from the Academy, and invites them for a tour of his building, where he's restored numerous transporter units. Trying to put aside their discomfort of taking out such a kind, elderly man, they fail to realize that Dennis has actually seen through their plan and makes it aware that most of his visitors are people who try to knock him out and use his transporter to board ships without authorization. Pointing his phaser at them, they relent and admit their plans, while he offers to make them some soup. Dennis admits to them that he's been following Freeman's trial and doesn't believe the charges against her. He also says that he would transport them to the Cerritos, but the verugament migration has created a natural scattering field, blocking any transport attempts off of Earth, making the only way of accessing the Cerritos via another ship. Disheartened that they cannot help Freeman, and likely missed out on a trip to Bozeman because of their attempt here, Dennis talks about how Bozeman has a replica of the Phoenix that can fly into orbit. Mariner then immediately asks if the transporter can at least transport them to Montana. Transported to Bozeman, everyone is taken aback as they see numerous historical sights. However, Mariner directs their attention to the replica of the Phoenix as the reason they are there. Act Two After waiting in line, Mariner, Boimler, Tendi, and Rutherford board the Phoenix replica, planning to override the ship's automation. As they get settled in, a nervous rider named boards with them, and they're unable to convince him to leave. A hologram of Zefram Cochrane appears in the pilot's seat and tells them to get ready for their "trek amongst the stars, " before putting on the rock and roll song, "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf. The Phoenix replica blasts off and as they enter orbit, Mariner and Rutherford get up, and begin to rewire the ship's systems, adding to Gavin's nervousness. Able to input a new destination, Mariner engages the warp core, and the ship goes into warp. They arrive at the spacedock where the Cerritos, still without her external hull, is held, and they dock the replica at her side. They apologize to Gavin for hijacking the ride, and Rutherford offers to re-engage the automation to return him to Earth. Gavin however declines, and says the replica is his ship now, and that he will no longer be a botanist, wanting to explore the galaxy instead. They leave as Gavin takes the Phoenix to warp. At Boimler's bunk, they find his logs, and per his word, he has indeed recorded the captain's log verbatim; however, he's also added some personal tidbits into the log, making it sound unprofessional. As they go through his logs, trying to find one's that are not altered by different trivial bits of Boimler's personal life, they only find more and more embarrassing entries, leading Mariner to believe they will be useless in court. Rutherford says that Starfleet could still cross-reference the dates on Boimler's log, but Mariner believes that ultimately, they would not believe the word of a "goofy" ensign. They gather around her and tell her that they are Starfleet, and that they should trust them that they will make the right decision, and Mariner relents, agreeing to take the log to the trial. They board the shuttlecraft Joshua Tree and Mariner tells them she needs to check the port nacelle. As she leaves, the door closes and the shuttlecraft starts up, much to the shock of Boimler, Tendi, and Rutherford. They quickly realize that Mariner has actually set up the shuttlecraft's auto-navigation, and locked them out, as the ship leaves the hangar. Mariner rushes to the bridge and begins to start up the ship's systems. The shuttlecraft hails Mariner, and she tells them that she won't leave until she has hard evidence of Freeman's innocence. As it is claimed that Freeman was aided by Klingons in the attack, she intends to go find the very Klingons who seemingly collaborated with her, unwilling to listen to the protests of the others. Act Three On the Joshua Tree, the three ensigns are all anxious about what Mariner has just done, fearing she could be incarcerated. No longer caring about any kind of trouble they may face, they all agree to stop Mariner, and her plans. Thinking fast and knowing they won't be able to override the navigation system, Boimler decides to reprogram the "home" of the Joshua Tree from Earth, back to the Cerritos, making the shuttlecraft once again travel towards the ship's hangar. While this works, the landing is rough, as the ship believes an atmosphere would slow them down, and it crashes into the hangar. The ensigns rush up to the bridge, taking Mariner by surprise. They tell her she's not thinking clearly, and they begin to struggle with each other as Rutherford attempts to lock her out of the navigation systems. Meanwhile, security aboard the nearby spacedock detects the unauthorized departure of the Cerritos and raises the alarm. On the bridge, Rutherford manages to lock Mariner out of the navigation systems of the Cerritos, much to her dismay. After frantically trying to get control back, she admits that she's very scared that she may lose her mother to this whole ordeal. The others gather around her, and reassure her that no matter what happens, they will be there to support her through it all. At that moment, security hails the Cerritos, asking what the situation is. As they struggle to come up with an answer, they notice the verugament migration closing in on them. While initially, they're nervous what might happen, Tendi notes that they're incandescent extremophiles, and that they're synthesizing carbon off the hull of the ship, triggering a "mass reproductive event," realizing that the verugament were only in search of a breeding ground. The security team repeats their message to the Cerritos, and Tendi has them open a channel. Tendi answers the hail and replies that they're in the middle of a biological survey of the verugament. She notes that due to the rare nature of the event, and grounding of the crew, they could not be interrupted. Unconvinced, the security guards say that they're coming aboard, and Tendi has them open the hangar bay doors and follow her. The security team enters the hangar to find Tendi, Mariner, Boimler, and Rutherford taking care of numerous gametes of the verugament with some difficulty, due to the stinging tentacles of the creatures. While the work is hard, the team is convinced that the four are indeed, just helping the verugament, and admire their dedication to the pursuit of science. They then ask for the officer who ordered the mission before leaving, and the four ensigns tense up. As they struggle to think of an answer, Captain Freeman enters with Admiral Freeman, Shaxs, and T'Ana. Freeman says that she authorized the mission, and the security team leaves, satisfied. When they leave, Mariner embraces Freeman and she asks what happened with the trial, and if Freeman is potentially on the run. Alonzo tells her that the trial is actually over. Carol explains that while the trial was going on, Starfleet was carrying a secret investigation into the bombing itself, which was led by Captain Morgan Bateson. A connection was found between the Pakleds and a known data fabricator who was responsible for producing the footage of Freeman planting the bomb. They captured the fabricator in the Romulan Neutral Zone and had him interrogated by Commander Tuvok. The forger then revealed that the true identity of the bomber to be the Pakleds themselves, who were hoping to frame Freeman for the attack to force the Federation to help them relocate to a new planet that was richer in resources. The plan nearly worked, but Starfleet's interest in clearing Freeman's name ultimately prevailed. Mariner is astounded that Starfleet actually came through for Carol, but Alonzo scolds her that she should have listened to him from the beginning and trusted the system. Carol revealed that she wasn't out of court an hour before she was informed of the Cerritos being stolen from the impound. She orders Tendi, Boimler, and Rutherford to clean up the hangar, and takes Mariner to her ready room. In her ready room, Mariner sits with Alonzo as Carol paces. Carol realizes that Mariner believes she can do and say whatever she wants without consequence, largely because she's been so tolerant and lenient with her. She says that while she knows Mariner was trying to help, and that she loves her, Carol also knows that her daughter is not going to reach her full potential with herself as an authority figure. While the Cerritos remains her last chance, Carol knows that as her mother, she'd never be able to kick Mariner out of Starfleet but knows someone who can. At that moment, Commander Jack Ransom enters, much to Mariner's horror. Freeman tells Mariner that she's giving her full and final oversight to Ransom, who will have the final say if Mariner is allowed to remain in Starfleet. Back in the hangar, Boimler, Tendi, and Rutherford are happy to be back on the Cerritos as they continue to clean up after the verugament. As they clean, they pull up a FNN update to see if they have anything new on the trial. They catch a news story about the malfunctioning Phoenix replica being rescued near the moons of Jupiter, traumatizing the lone rider in the process. Gavin is seen being dragged away from the ship, as he screams to be let go. Memorable quotes "The longer I'm off a ship, the more useless I feel! Like that. Like that big dumb red thing."

The Least Dangerous Game (episode)
On a tropical paradise planet, Mariner questions Commander Ransom on how he structures his away team. Boimler makes a bold career decision. Summary Teaser In a dimly lit room, boasts about his glorious life as a Klingon warrior, and how his accolades have guaranteed him a place in Sto-vo-kor when he dies, as he has honored his house. He then asks the viewer if they will do the same. Ensigns Beckett Mariner, Bradward Boimler, D'Vana Tendi, and Samanthan Rutherford are actually in the midst of playing a game called Bat'leths & BiHnuchs, and as the game starts, the four give a battle-cry. Act One The ensigns play their game as Tendi notes how nice it is to be together without anything major going on. Mariner is a bit frustrated as she's not been able to get much downtime for herself, as Commander Jack Ransom has been watching her every move, since being assigned to her. At that moment, Ransom calls her on her combadge and tells her to report to the briefing for their upcoming mission, despite it not starting for another hour. As Mariner leaves, Boimler notes how Ransom's supervision has been surprisingly beneficial for her, as she's been kept out of trouble lately. Tendi agrees, noting she's making the best she can of her situation, comparing her to Captain Vendome. Boimler laughs at the comparison, unable to believe that Vendome has received such a promotion, but both Tendi and Rutherford confirm that he transferred to the months ago and received a field promotion that stuck after a temporal rift turned his previous captain into a baby. Shocked, and bummed to hear that Vendome just "lucked" into such a promotion when Boimler has been working hard to earn such a promotion, Tendi notes how Vendome always put himself out there for new opportunities, and this gained him recognition. Boimler is skeptical that approach would be for him as he doesn't like taking risks. Martok then addresses him in the game, saying his character has discovered a shortcut through the Caves of T'rachmor, and asks if he enters. Boimler declines, preferring to stick to the path, but upon rolling, his character is ambushed, and his character ends up begging for his life. Consequently, the character lives out the remainder of his life as a dentist. The comes upon the planet Dulaine. As the planet has a thermosphere of charged ions, making transport to the surface impossible, the people therefore rely on orbital lifts to get to space from the surface, and the Cerritos has arrived to repair one. Ransom takes Chief Engineer Andy Billups, Mariner, and Rutherford to the lift as he talks about their mission. The Cerritos takes aboard any stranded Dulainians aboard the lift, while the away team coordinates repairs from the surface. As the Dulainians are very social and hospitable, she's eager to go to the surface, since she believes she and Ransom will be coordinating from the surface. Ransom, however, orders for Billups and Rutherford to head to the surface to coordinate repairs instead, while he and Mariner remain to carry them out. Mariner objects to this, as both Billups and Rutherford, being engineers, are the most qualified, and suited to the task. Ransom replies that they are more than capable of fixing the lift and tells her not to question his orders. Eager to go to the surface, Billups and Rutherford take a shuttlecraft down, leaving Ransom and Mariner to begin their work. On the Cerritos, Boimler indeed confirms that Vendome has made captain, and even has an entire bridge crew comprised of Bolians. He feels downtrodden that no matter how hard he tries, he feels like he will be an ensign for the rest of his life. Tendi once more advises him in being more assertive, noting her own experience with recently beginning training for senior science officer, and tells him to try new things. At that moment, a crew member, Sherwyns, walks by and tells Boimler that there's an open position in their upcoming springball tournament, and invites him to join. Boimler at first declines, but when Tendi reminds him of Vendome, he immediately decides to try it out. Boimler performs rather poorly in the tournament, but after getting tackled by Shaxs, Shaxs immediately takes note of his sustained scream, and invites him to partake in his Bajoran dirge choir, as he's in need of a soprano. Boimler accepts the invitation to participate. As the choir performs, Boimler's performance impresses Shaxs to tears, and he tells Boimler that he'd be more than willing to give him a favor should he ever need it. At that moment, Lars Lundy takes Boimler by surprise, and notes that Boimler's thin build would be perfect for his figure painting session, asking Boimler to model for the class. Boimler once again accepts. Back on the orbital lift, Mariner is struggling with repairs, while Ransom works out. Billups hails them and tells them of the wonderful treatment both he and Rutherford are receiving, noting they're going to be partaking in a dance, a feast, and a drinking competition. Ransom tells them that they'll join them once repairs are complete, and Billups asks if Ransom remembered to decouple the flow inverters before reconnecting the condoit piping. Ransom is unsure but says he did as they end the transmission. Mariner asks if he really did, and Ransom repeats that he did and tells her to focus on her own work. Mariner once more says that Billups and Rutherford are better for their job, and as Ransom objects, a pipe burst overhead. In the Cerritos lounge, which is crowded with Dulainians and a number of other aliens who were stranded on the orbital lift and are being hosted until the repairs are complete, Boimler approaches Tendi and tells her that he's indeed been trying new things, and it has worked out great for him so far. Boimler says that going forward, he will say yes to everything, intending to be a different person. As he says this, an alien named K'ranch, who had been working the room, approaches the two, and explains that he was supposed to be back on the planet by now, but that the lift is still broken. As his species has an undeniable natural urge to hunt, the delay has been strenuous on him and asks if either would be willing to be hunted by him. Tendi declines the offer, but Boimler, true to his word, accepts the challenge to be hunted. Tendi pulls him aside and tells him he doesn't need to do such a brash activity, but Boimler is unmoved, and accepts K'ranch's offer. K'ranch roars and then removes a tooth to draw a line of blood on Boimler's forehead marking him as his prey, declaring that the hunt will begin in one hour. As K'ranch leaves, Boimler says that it won't be as bad as it sounds, but Tendi urges him to run as he only has an hour to prepare. Act Two On the orbital lift, Ransom is watching an instructional video on how to conduct the repairs, unable to comprehend the instructions being given to him, as Billups hails him. Billups alerts him to a problem that has happened on the surface. As they entered the Dulainian's sacred hall without exposed navels, the Dulainians take offense to their attire, and Billups asks for assistance. Mariner is eager to help, but Ransom declines Billups' request, telling them to show their belly buttons and that they respect all cultures. Billups and Rutherford are unsure but agree to try. Mariner once more urges Ransom to go to the surface to smooth things out, noting that his desire to annoy her should not come at the expense of endangering fellow lives of their crew. Ransom only responds that she needs to put more trust in her senior officers' abilities. Boimler visits K'ranch on the Cerritos and asks if the hunt is more metaphorical. K'ranch tells him of two of the three kinds of prey, identifying Boimler as the first type: one that is immobilized by fear. The second type tries to scurry away and hide only to delay the inevitable. Boimler asks what the third kind is, only to be told it's a winged lizard-type creature that doesn't apply to him. Boimler then asks when the hunt begins, only for K'ranch to respond that it already has. At that moment, K'ranch lunges at Boimler and chases him through the halls of the Cerritos as Boimler runs and screams in terror. Chased into Cetacean Ops, where Kimolu and Matt scold him for jumping into the water with dirty shoes. Boimler screams that someone is trying to kill him before diving down to a Jefferies tube to escape K'ranch, as Kimolu remarks about how Boimler is a "drama magnet." Boimler exits the tube into a hall and comes upon Captain Carol Freeman. He gets her attention and tells her that he's being hunted. Alarmed by this, she calls a security team to the deck, much to Boimler's relief. Boimler tells her about his encounter with K'ranch at the bar, but upon learning that K'ranch is hunting him, Freeman calls off the security team, noting that she and K'ranch had a lovely brunch together, and that she's happy he found someone willing to partake in his Venarix hunt. Boimler pleads with Freeman to have her call off the hunt, but Freeman tells him that they have to respect his culture. K'ranch then finds them, and Boimler runs off again as K'ranch thanks Freeman for the mimosas they shared together, to which Freeman says it was her pleasure and wishes K'ranch a happy hunting. On the orbital lift, Rutherford contacts Ransom, asking for his help as driver the Dulainians noticed Billups' outward navel, they intend to sacrifice him to a sentient volcano named Morgo. Ransom tells him to demand a parley, and to tell them that they cannot sacrifice Billups. Rutherford expresses concern that their leader is either a telepathic baby or ancient god. Ransom expresses confidence in his ability, as he continues to fumble with the repairs. Mariner, losing patience, decides to take matters into her own hands, and rushes away. Grabbing an EV suit, she puts it on, and opens a nearby door, exposing her to the planet's atmosphere. She then skydives off the platform. Act Three As Mariner plummets to the planet's surface, Ransom hails her. She answers, trying to keep her cool. Ransom finally admits that Mariner was right, and that he was trying to prove she would disobey his orders if she felt she knew better and commends her for staying on task. As Billups and Rutherford are in over their heads, he decides that it's time to go save them, and tells Mariner that he'll meet with her shortly. A frustrated Mariner pulls her parachute, and rushes to start climbing back up the lift. Back on the Cerritos, K'ranch is still hunting Boimler, who slips into the hangar and hides. He bumps into a crate, and the tablet of their game from earlier lights up, revealing a bold Martok. While he tries to silence it, Martok tells him to fight until his last breath. Boimler frustratingly laments how while he tried to be bold, all he ended up being was prey. Martok only responds that the only way he can lose is if he lets his foe define who he is. Reinvigorated, Boimler gets some gear, paints his face, and grabs a phaser rifle, getting the courage to face K'ranch. He exits the hangar and calls on K'ranch, telling him he will no longer run, as he intends to hunt him, but as he continues to speak, K'ranch throws a spear at his shoulder, pinning Boimler to the floor. K'ranch notes how the prey always tries to become the hunter and pulls out what appears to be a ceremonial weapon. Boimler pleas for his life as K'ranch leans down, and the "weapon" actually turns out to be a selfie stick, with which K'ranch takes a selfie with Boimler. K'ranch declares the hunt over, and Boimler is a bit confused that K'ranch isn't going to kill him. K'ranch explains that his race, the Kromsapiods practice catch-and-release, as they have high respect for all life during their hunts. Boimler breathes a sigh of relief and K'ranch commends him, calling him excellent prey, and promises to pass his praise to Freeman later. Boimler thanks him before passing out, and K'ranch takes one last photo before taking him to sickbay. Mariner is rushing to get back to the orbital lift, and just makes it back as Ransom enters the room after having gone to the bathroom. Ransom tells her that since they don't have a shuttlecraft and the lift won't descend, they're going to have to get to the surface by skydiving. Mariner, who is still winded from her rush to get back up, asks for a break, but Ransom has her suit up. They skydive down to the planet, just as the Dulainians are about to lower Billups and Rutherford into the lava of Morgo, under the guidance of their leader, Mendrick, a psychic baby, and 355, a sentient computer. Mariner expresses how complicated their system is, only further angering the locals, but before Billups and Rutherford are sacrificed, Ransom demands parley, and rips his shirt off, astounding the locals with his muscular physique. Flabbergasted at how handsome and fit he is, they agree to hear him out. Later, after Mariner and Ransom arrive back on the Cerritos, Mariner visits Ransom, who apologizes to her for assuming she would just try and find ways to undermine him, and that he was wrong to push the issue. Mariner thanks him, noting she really does want to stay on the Cerritos. Ransom tells her she's not out of the woods just yet, and that one day's good work won't erase her prior insubordination. Before she leaves, Mariner tells him how impressive he was in negotiating with the Dulainians, but he dismisses her, telling her that complimenting him will not make her life any easier, but after she leaves, he flexes and agrees that he was pretty impressive. Mariner joins Rutherford and Tendi for their game of Bat'leths & BiHnuchs, noting how much of a Ransom is, and they resume playing their game. Boimler joins them, healed from the hunt, and notes that while his shoulder will likely always feel a little off, he feels fine. Tendi apologizes to him, feeling responsible for pushing him to go against his usual planning, but he hugs her and tells her that he never got nearly as much recognition beforehand, planning to be bolder moving forward. Tendi asks to consider moderation, but Boimler says that was his old self. He rolls the dice in their game, saying his character boldly enters a bar and demands bloodwine. Martok tells him that the bartender merely rips his arm off and kills his character with it, resulting in a dishonorable death, since it was technically by his own hand. Boimler says this doesn't bother him and is still going to be bold. Martok then advertises the game's expansion pack and subscription pass as the Cerritos warps away. Memorable quotes "Ah, the blood of my enemies is forever immortalized on my d'k tahg. I can still taste their final panicked screams! Ha ha ha! My death will be ecstasy. A glorious end that will take me straight to Sto'Vo'Kor! I have honored my house, but will you?" - Martok, beginning message for Bat'leths & BiHnuchs "I can't believe Martok recorded all this! You'd think he'd be too busy being a chancellor and stuff." "No, no, he didn't. It's a Ferengi knockoff. They do it for all the famous Klingons. I've been trying to get the expansion for months." - Rutherford and Boimler "Vendome got a field promotion, and it stuck." "What?! But, but he's a goofball! Vendome's the guy who gets hit with a spear on away missions!" - Tendi and Boimler "Starfleet isn't all about being fed fruit by erotic aliens with slightly different nose ridges. Sometimes, you gotta get your hands dirty." - Ransom "I was just wondering, when you say you're gonna hunt me, you mean like metaphorically, right?" "There are only three types of prey. You are the first type, immobilized by your fear. The second type scurries away to hide, delaying the inevitable." "Uh, what's the third kind?" "The third is a winged lizard-type creature, that doesn't really apply to you." - Boimler and K'ranch "Don't jump in here with dirty shoes! That's messed up!" - Matt "Thanks again for the mimosas." "My pleasure. Happy hunting!" - K'ranch and Freeman "The only way you can lose now is by letting your foe define who you are! Never back down! Never cower!" - Martok "The hunted always tries to become the hunter. Tale, old as time." - K'ranch "You were excellent prey, but I do have notes." "Can you maybe give them to me in sickbay?" "When you decide to switch up and become the hunter, you can't just announce it and stand there. Stick and move, you know?" "Uh-huh, yeah, I'll keep that in mind." - K'ranch and Boimler "Wow, psychic baby, evil computer, and a volcano? You guys ever heard of overkill?" "It provides a system of checks and balances!" - Mariner and Morgo "For what it's worth, sir. It was an honor serving with you." "Oh, Samanthan. The honor is mine." - Rutherford and Billups "Wow. Your lava tubes are perfect." - Morgo, regarding Random's ripped figure "I confidently enter the bar and demand bloodwine." "The bartender rips your arm off and kills you with it. It is not an honorable death, since technically, you died by your own hand." - Boimler and Martok Background information Title The title was announced on by Paramount+. The title references "", a 1924 short story about a big-game hunter who is himself hunted on an island by a Russian aristocrat. The story is often referenced in science fiction, including in numerous Star Trek episodes where Humans or other sentient species are hunted for sport including , , , and . Continuity The game Bat'leths & BiHnuchs is a take on the classic tabletop RPG , while also referencing and incorporating elements of the Star Trek board game, Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Klingon Challenge, an interactive VHS board game released in that took place on the . The game included taped instructions and interactions with a Klingon named Kavok, who had commandeered the Enterprise and was taking it to Qo'noS. It was up to the players to stop him before he starts a new conflict with the Federation. This episode marks the return of , albeit the host of the Ferengi program based on the famous Klingon Martok; with being referenced as an . The Klingon blade weapons Rutherford, Tendi and Boimler wield during their game include a Hegh'bat ceremony knife, a mek'leth, and a knife that Worf kept hung on the wall in his quarters on the Enterprise-D. Though described as springball (first mentioned in and first seen in ), the background and costumes are the same used for racquetball, as depicted in . Mike McMahan took responsibility for the error. Rutherford said he was having so much fun down on the planet that he thinks he should transfer divisions again, referencing the Season 1 episode when he spent time exploring the command, sciences and security divisions on the Cerritos before returning to engineering. Mariner's skydiving stunt briefly resembles the scene in in which , , and Olsen perform an orbital skydive down to in order to sabotage the Naradas drill platform. This episode does not include any scenes on the bridge of the Cerritos. Although there is no official stardate within the episode itself, a log by Ransom on the "Star Trek Logs" Instagram account dated the episode to Stardate 58211.6.
