Boimler explained it best - multiverses are boring and unoriginal. Pointing that out in the episode doesn't make it any less boring. It would have been okay if this was earlier in the run of the show, before multiverses had been done to death. But, there's one episode left, and I'd rather it focused on existing characters. Remember Rutherford? Or, if they really wanted Garak - best ST character ever, btw - then show us what he's doing now in the real universe. Maybe he's manipulating the Ferengi economy so his fashion designs are the top selling brand. Of course, Rom recognizes what he's doing but allows it because Garak is donating all the money to rebuild Cardassia. Or he's helping Bashir take over Section 31. There were so many options.

Ugh. What a waste of time and talent.

The recipe I'm referring to uses beef bone marrow. English Heritage channel.

As bad as Rachel's beef trifle sounds, it turns out there is a British dessert that isn't too far from that recipe. Look up "Lady Betty's Delight" on Youtube. English Heritage has a Victorian cooking show, and the recipe is ... well, it brings to mind Rachel's trifle. Plus, the show is a hoot.

I enjoyed it far too much. It's one of my favorite scenes from the entire series, and I can't give a single, logical reason why.

They're a slippery subject. Not everyone gets the a-peel.

We had two T'Anas in the first episode. They just growled and hissed at each other. I think one chased the other in the background at some point. There was a hand hold with Shax, IIRC. I do like the little details they add to the aliens they create. The little beak eating utensils were a great touch - such a minor thing, but it works for an avian species.

Well, we learned Dr. Miglemoo's first name and species' name. That's something, I guess. Seems a bit unethical to jump to the conclusion that the other Klowahkans were suffering psychologically, rather than from a medical condition. But Miglemoo got gourmet meals out of it, and the others were ... whatever the avian equivalent to "dicks" is. I do like seeing the absurdity of Klingon rituals and honor being poked. It was worth getting Ezri Dax on DS9 just to hear her tell Worf how silly it all was. Boimler's facial hair appears to be sentient. The more developed it gets, the more confident he becomes. There isn't much of a plot so far this season. The space holes really aren't doing a lot. It seems like they're content to put in little Easter eggs to prior seasons - Billup and pet dragons, Klowahkan's fluff and fussy eating, wrapping up Jennifer ... And I don't recall T'Lynn being in this episode.

Curious. Was that a stand-alone tart, or were you in a croquembouche apartment? 😸

Deadline has a couple articles up about the show. In one, the showrunner explains that Agatha used the lure of the Witches' Road to kill other witches out of grief. (I'm not sure that was conveyed well.) It also said Nicky had a father, but who he was wasn't important to the story. Death and dying are two different things. Dying is the act of your life playing out. Death isn't what kills you; it's the state after dying. The MCU hasn't really established much about their Death, but it's something of a literary convention that Death is what ushers you to whatever awaits you. In the Vertigo/DC stories, Death visits everyone when they are born, so she is the first face they see. That way they recognize her as a friend when she comes for them, and they are comforted. Terry Pratchett's Death actually is very fond of humans, even if can't understand them. And his Death collects stray cats to live in his domain because he likes them.

Really sorry to see Nelly go, especially as Dylan was insufferable this week. Hopefully whatever caused his mood will be fleeting, because he was not fun to watch.

No, Agatha was referring to Nick. He just died; she didn't trade him for the Darkhold or any other nefarious stuff. Just like Jen when she was unbound, Billy's quest was done. He wanted to find out what happened to Tommy. Once he did, he was off the road.

And he was a literal rock musician.

Ugh. It's the last season. I wasn't too interested in Jennifer showing up as a major part of an episode, but she's off to Manitoba. Their setting up Boimler as maturing into a decent officer.

She was the High Priestess in Lilia's visions, so that's the vibe I got from it.
