Comment on Canon Connections: DIS 5x09 - Lagrange Point

You know, the execution was a little clunky, but I really appreciated the idea that Starfleet would sit around chatting about the situation for the bit, while the Breen would just swing in with a YOLO maneuver.

I definitely appreciated it on that level after the moment had time to sink in. Maybe that’s what bugged me so much about it. Watching sci-fi, I suspend a certain amount of disbelief. When something entirely plausible happens, it just hits me off guard.

I know you’re being sarcastic, but that is exactly how I felt for about 15 seconds. 😆
