I don’t get the general praise of the episode, to me it felt terrible. The whole episode didn’t make any damn sense. It was terribly written from start to finish. Oh yeah sure, of all the thing that could have burned it was the rations. “You are now a whater condener”. Oh, you conveniently still have parts of the heat shield of your ship! No, if course we won’t still die of heat directly under it with holes in it when the fucking atmosphere is on fire. Oh and what are we even going to breathe after said atmosphere has gone poof? Who cares, we all knew lizard lady was going to get kid anyway.

Honestly, if writing on this level is enough to become a Star Trek writer, maybe I should start writing my own stories.
