Observations and thoughts as I watched (initially posted at the other place):

• We begin with “Twovix”.

• Holodeck waste material, AKA jizz, poop, and god knows what else.

• Oh, hey, T’Lyn!

• DAT VOYAGER THEME!

• Oh, hey, the probe from the one with the whales!

• Neelix cheese!

• Shit did get freaky.

• Oh shit, they’re going to Tuvix Billups and T’ana!

• “Janeway straight-up murdered Tuvix.”

• MACROVIRUS.

• The Pike Thing, of course.

• “Back in the 70s”

• “Captain, I caution against socializing with the organism.”

• So many VOY deep cuts.

• “Holy shit. Janeway didn’t mess around.”

• Macrovirus of Borg. And robotic warp salamander of Borg.

• “Water, room temperature.”

• This is definitely T’Ana’s side of T’Llups.

• Oh god, they tuvixed the Matt the whale! Wait, what about Kimolu? Is he alright? Is he okay?

• A Tuvixy meatball!

• Heh, the real solution to the Tuvix conundrum was just to keep merging until it’s a nonsentient blob of meat so there is no murder, so to speak.

• Oh god I just realized that we’re going to get so much Tuvixy fanart.

• Bizarre series of Voyager-themed obstacles.

• SHE GOT A PIP

• Beckett Mariner receives the fate worse than death for her: promotion.

• Nothing ever good happens “somewhere in Klingon space”

• RIP Klingon lower-deckers.

And now, episode 2:

• Heh, Romulan lower decks.

• Goodbye, Romulan lower deckers!

• Heh, those 80s workout stuff.

• Oh, cool, Boimler still has his Tom Paris tplate!

• Please tell me Denty has a Memory Alpha page.

• The Nacelle is right there!

• Non-botanicals

• I have just met Moopsy but I would die for it.

• Oddly enough, this is the SECOND time this year that a Jack Quaid character looked at a VERY bright light. Shoutout to my boy Richard Feynman, the one man crazy enough to watch a nuclear test without goggles.

• Okay, I would no longer die for the moopsy.

• Tucker Tubes! Good old Trip got stuff named for him!

• The Ad Astra Per Aspera poster!

• I do feel like Starfleet would have better soundproofing, but then again this is the Cerritos.

• RIP corn guy.

• LIVIK!

• Aww, D’Vana Tendi giving orders.

• Teeth as bread crumbs.

• Heh, the humans really are the worst.

• Hah, he could have just used the viewports.

• Overall, I think I liked this second episode more, even though I loved the VOY fan service.
