Back in the 1990
Star Trek: The Next Generation unleashed a massive shockwave with its now iconic season 3 finale
Best of Both Worlds Pt. 1. The huge success of that episode, and it's fourth season conclusion, established a high water mark the various series have attempted to replicate ever since. This week hosts
Cam Smith and
Tyler Orton, along with special guest
Dale Deruiter of the
Outrage Factory podcast, weigh the pros and cons of making a deal with the devil while revisiting
Scorpion,
Voyager's most obvious attempt to recapture the magic of the legendary Locutus saga. Bringing the Borg back in a big, bad way, as well as ushering in an all-new unstoppable adversary, the two-parter also introduces 7 of 9, sets up the departure of Kes and pits Janeway against Chakotay in a tense debate over the fate of the crew. Listen in as the trio discuss all of these key points, as well as consider the merits of television-grade CG, struggle to determine the show's most disposable character and toss out nerdy 90's references.
