Really, what do they expect? Mental Healthcare is more or less nonexistent everywhere he goes.
He calls them his pokemon. It’s sick.
Gotta catch 'em all, indeed.
a star trek horror movie… hmmmm … thats a deep, dark well of material i think i would want to avoid.
I think you could make a good star trek horror movie in keeping with roddenberry’s vision of star trek, while also being genuinely scary.
In some distant future when a Hologram control computer can give you any type of media imaginable to within a 9.37% margin of error using available sources, and watch a Tarantino directed Star Trek, or if you wanted for some reason, a star trek directed by Tommy Wiseau.

The one where those guys turn the whole ship into a holodeck and hunt the crew repeatedly was pretty dark
I think Black mirror did an episode on this? Don’t remember the plot though.
What? “The Haunting of Deck 12” would like a word
i was thinkin more obrien & keiko getting lost in a black mirror/saw kind of situation where keiko has to cut out their unborn child with worfs foreskin to survive. more ‘horror’ less ‘scary’.
edit: for the record, i didnt want to go there. he made me do it
A tale as old as time
I wish you hadnt
… or why didn’t some psychopathic Admiral decide to take the technology and crew an entire rogue starship with nothing by cloned Picards or a dozen ships all crewed by duplicated Datas or an army of cloned Worfs
If the transporter system is capable of disassembling someone or something at the molecular level … doesn’t that mean it would be capable of making a copy? There have been plenty of episodes where there were ‘accidents’ and duplicates were created. So it means that the system is capable of being programmed to make multiple copies if they wanted to.
And if that were the case, someone somewhere would have weaponized this technology. It’s like the period when we all discovered digital music and duplication software and hardware became available, all of sudden we could duplicate any digital media we wanted and it went wild for a while. I’m pretty sure out of the billions of people and species that would have had access to this technology, one of them or a few of them would have put two and two together and figured out that it could create clones and duplicates. It would turn into a great weapon for someone with a maniacal plan.
It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets containment again
Is a person caught in a transporter buffer aware of anything? Does time just stand still for them as they’ve been broken down into whatever it is they’re existing as (energy)? Or are they caught in some sort of eternal hell waiting to be transported. I feel like this was the plot for a TNG episode at some point and maybe they’re not aware of time when they’re caught in it.
In one episode, Scotty and another crewman were intentionally caught in the buffers to save themselves for something like 80 years, and in that time the patterns had degraded enough that the other crewman couldn’t be saved.
It’s been awhile since I’ve watched it, but that was the gist.
They don’t have awareness IIRC
Didn’t the transporter monsters / crew that Barclay saved have awareness? I’m sure they were trying to get out by grabbing people in the transporter stream.
In that they treknobabble it with “plasma streamers” and “ionization” and some kind of energy microbes, but the worm things were crew members from the Yosemite.
I know they were the crew, but what I mean is, weren’t they actively trying to get out of the transporter stream, suggesting that they were aware of their situation?
Ah, gotcha.
I guess it could be argued they were moving with their own will, but it could also have been random movements in plasma.
I don’t remember any explanation of if they were conscious of their movement or not.
He always says that to himself, but then he never does… :-|
