This was great, so many easter eggs.

The gift store is the Amazon of Easter Eggs. Worth a close look.

TrekCulture did a breakdown. Seems to be stuff from every series, and a uniform hat from the Kelvin Timeline.

I saw that! I want to know how the Kelvin timeline hat got in there.

Well there are all of those subspace fissures. Could be interesting to see if they do bring the Kelvin-verse in that way.

Despite the Easter eggs, a pretty meh episode.  I guess we were due for one.

I like that we finally got to see Starbase 80 after all the talk about how terrible it is. And yeah, it definitely was that bad. Hardware from the 2260s, no replicators, no holodeck. The arcade was pretty cool, though and the Galaga-looking game made me laugh. Good on Captain Freeman for deciding to help them out because she understands being on a ship overlooked by Starfleet.
