Hey OP ! I would blur out the dog tag. I can see the phone number.

Not lines of John Redcorn over Chakotay?
Is it just me or does it look like Peggy Hill is an ancestor of TAS Janeway?
I miss you too. Why do you never call?
I think this would be a great topic to place in c/daystrominstitute if it’s still active. It’s been years since I’ve seen this debate online.
That Klingon culture isn’t a monolith over their entire history.
I don’t see any inconsistency between the death yell and that the body is trash. The yell is to warm of the Warrior’s spirit’s assent to Grethor. The body no longer has the spirit and is just an empty meat shell.
Other Klingons may acknowledge that the body is empty, but still don’t want the spirit of the dead to be dishonored by having its body eaten by slowly scavengers, something famously uncommon on starships. Just like how some humans believe in Sky Burials and others believe the body must go in a tomb the same day it died.
Or, my pet theory, Worf Lied to make Miles feel better about Enrique’s death. It wouldn’t be the first time he made up a “super serious” Klingon ritual to prove his point.
Honestly? This episode was a bit of a miss for me.
Pros
I always like when an actor tries new accents. Sometimes it’s a swing and a miss, but I will reward risks.
I liked the production value of the sci fi sets
The Origin of canonical explanation of why the holodeck always worked whenever the power went out in Voyager.
What…ever…that … Shatneresque…portal of …the Cap-tain was that Kirk did.
Cons
Hypotheticals never are.
I’m not thrilled by the amount of meta they packed in. We get it. TOS was canceled.
Obvious outlandish twist is obvious.
The holodeck doppelgangers were hard to connect with or remember their quirks.
Spock doesn’t need a romantic relationship.
The non sequitur in medias res cold open.
Oh no! If you die in the holodeck, you die in real life. I’d love to see a Groundhogs day style holodeck episode where the characters are functionally immortal.
I think the problem is Mbenga is a character in TOS. So no matter what he does, he HAS to survive to the TOS era. He can be demoted from CMO, he can become part Gorn, but he has to be there.
Unfortunately, Ortega does not have that security.
