    RIP Ensign Gamble. You knew what you were getting into.

    I liked this one a lot - I'm generally a fan of "ancient, unspeakable horror" stories, and this one was pretty well-told.

    The Enterprise is seemingly able to declare its own red alerts - not much fun in that.

    My biggest complaint is this show's continued abuse of the transporter buffer - it should not be easy to use it as a form of stasis!

          The auto-red alerts did stick out a bit, but it kind of makes sense. The computer knows where everyone is and what they usually do, and behaviour-based intrusion detection systems are starting to become normal cybersecurity concepts even today.

            To be fair, it was used the way in the TNG Episode Relics, when Scotty spent 75 years stuck in the Jenolan's transport buffer, so quiite a long precedent.

              Exactly. The moment the camera focused on the orb I knew that little twerp (RIP Gamble) would do the typical redshirt thing and pick it up.
