That Tawny Newsome workplace Trek pitch is starting to sound pretty good now.

You're saying he's been to Andor?

Stonn is just JP from Grandma's Boy.

 

TOS s2e1 "Amok Time"

Per Memory Alpha:

In the script for "Amok Time", Stonn was characterized as "a tall muscular Vulcan with a handsome and non-horrifying face."

O'Brien accidentally remarking on his suffering rather than responding properly to Tosk at first.

Fair. Just find it hilarious that after all the discussion about the struggle behind this concept, only to rest on schilling whatever to be the pinnacle of missing the point.

Always a favorite. Be excellent to each other!

A few minutes in and... yeah. Good, horrifying stuff thus far.

Edit:

  • "Why Don't We Just Kill The Kid in the Omelas Hole?" got me.
  • Love the nod to The Brothers Karamozov. Existential horror at its best.
  • The hope that better is possible is much of what Trek is about.
  • Dude ends on an ad?!

Mentioned 3 other times in this post now. Still can't understand why it wasn't required reading amongst all the other dystopian stories.

That being so blunt would lack sublety.

That's a shame, just no sense in making a drink so poorly. Partial to the Luxardo cherries, myself.
