warning! THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM Star Trek: Lower Decks Episode “Reliable Sources”. Read at your own risk!
Star Trek: Lower Decks It is a show that prides itself on references from the beloved franchise it hails from, and does a great job of making them (as evidenced by Big response at the third season premiere). I guess it should come as no surprise then that he managed to seemingly refer to another show Star Trek The reference is quite brilliant, provided that is what is meant in the third penultimate season, “reliable sources”. One might think of going back to a world Too bad It might pop like a sore thumb in the sci-fi series, but judging by the reactions to the episode, this may have slipped without many fans noticing.
The moment in question occurred when Mariner, Poehmler, Rutherford, and Tendy were preparing for the annual pie-eating competition in Cerritos. The contest didn’t actually happen, as Captain Freeman shut it down after discovering a Mariner covered in a raspberry pie filling. Freeman did so because she was afraid that the visiting journalist would judge the ship and its crew, believing them to be an unprofessional Starfleet-class ship, which would reflect badly on her. All four main heroes watched in horror as the pancakes were smashed, all their hard work and training ended for nothing. As mentioned, we saw that Mariner has a bunch of blueberry patches on her body, as shown in the photo below:

Fortunately, the pie contest was canceled, so no one had a chance to try it Star Trek: Lower Decks. Not sure this would have happened anyway, like Off the Wall and Paramount Series + Outrageous He likes to honor the traditions of the Starfleet protocol franchise as best he can. If there was an incident that killed a Starfleet officer because of a pie-eating contest, one or several people would be in the brig for a long time. However, it’s great to see that the series has seemingly acknowledged Badger’s offbeat theme, especially considering the attention fans have paid to the scene over the years.
Star Trek: Lower Decks Only one episode away from the final episode of Season 3, and there’s reason to be concerned about fans. Captain Freeman has officially removed her daughter/Insigne Mariner from Cerritos after he mistakenly blamed her for making the rest of the crew look bad during her interview with the visiting journalist. It’s hard to imagine lower floors She’s going to write off one of her biggest Mariner characters, especially considering we know she’s going to be in Live action or direct event Strange new worlds Crossing next year (ie lower floors showrunner Mike McMahan is part of), but perhaps this new plot will lead to some interesting events in the end.
