Anika and Liz don their cheapest wigs and TOS costumes to travel a year into the future: 1966. It's the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds fourth season finale, "Tomorrow's Enterprise", and don't be alarmed, but we actually like this one!

  • This is the same plot as "Once La'an A Time", which is the same plot as "Like Chronitons Through The Hourglass"
  • We've been on the "Pike is bad at his job" train since season 1, but at this point it feels like he's being deliberately written to make Kirk look good
  • Doubles and doppelgangers and split screens: this season has something consistent going on … but why? 
  • 27 minutes in: "Okay, now let's talk about what we did like." 
  • They're setting up a nice fridge for La'an
  • Hey, SNW remembered that Gary Mitchell exists! 
  • It's wild that Uhura changes so much in a year, but then she gives all the credit to Pike? And Kirk? (Everyone knows that if Black female characters evolve without the aid of a white man, they're just a sparkling Mary Sue)
  • THE TONAL SHIFT! The writers realised they were doing Good Star Trek and had to throw in some self-conscious post-Whedon dialogue about space babies
