Explicit content warning
03/30/23 • 70 min
Matthew (he/him) and Jo (they/them) defend “The House of Quark” in this week’s episode. In an episode full of husbands doing husbandry, we crown Quark as a top 5 husband in Star Trek history, we pour one out for how badly the Klingons are portrayed in this episode and we discuss what base we have reached with our best friends while looking ahead to more Miles and Bashir “bro” time. Matthew asks who Natasha McElhone is and Jo just wants to be messy with Kira and hear the tea on what is going on in Miles’ marriage with Keiko.
As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.

Terok Noir: S3E1-2 "The Search"
Matthew (he/him) and Jo (they/them) join “The Search” for a worthwhile plot in the Season 3 opening episode. We spend roughly half the episode talking about how fucking cool the mother fucking Defiant is, we provide context for Season 3 and we discuss the introduction of The Founders and preview their role as the overarching villains for the rest of the series. Matthew asks if changeling goo sex is the best sex (yes it is) and Jo rants about how much they love the new rectangular combadges.

Next Episode

Terok Noir: S3E4 - "Equilibrium"
Matthew (he/him) and Jo (they/them) recommend you watch the film “Equilibrium” rather than the DS9 episode “Equilibrium”. But if you want to hear us talk about the DS9 episode we celebrate Star Trek captains/commanders who cook for their crew such as Sisko, Rider and Pike, we critique the elitist Trill society and how they have manufactured scarcity and what that means for their society and we debate the value of minority representation in Star Trek via ticking the minority box vs having minority characters that have compelling storylines that are more integrated into the narrative. Matthew asks if Jo would want to get a trill slug and Jo draws comparisons between this episode and Adira’s arc in Discovery S3.
