A trio of Betazoids cause chaos on the Cerritos.

The Cerritos is escorting three diplomats (essentially glorified socialites) to pleasure planet Risa, and their hedonistic lifestyle is starting to affect the crew. Vulcan ensign T’Lyn is concerned about the decadence and the disruption that’s being caused, but the cause is not quite as anticipated.

The sub-plot where Boimler discovers the secret world of the security team – which includes slam poetry,  charades and card games – is gently amusing, but it’s the kick- ass Betazoids that are the greatest point of interest.

Verdict: ‘Time to shred those party girls into brisket.’ Cheeky fun on the Cerritos that’s mid-tier Lower Decks. 6/10
