This was actually possibly my favourite episode this season.

I loved T'Lyn loosening up and allowing herself to be real friends with Tendi and Mariner.
I loved the modern extrapolation of the Orion world building from Enterprise. The nightclub and the BDSM pheromone dungeon were both hilarious and believably what Orions would be doing a couple hundred years later.
I loved the Syndicate crime lords being like "also, we want you to get your shit out of the garage."
While I thought the girl's story line was way more fun than the boy's story line, that was because the boy's story line was par for the course good Lower Decks content, while the girl's story line was top shelf. Boimler and Rutherford both playing Mark Twain was hilarious.

BDSM pheromone dungeon

In the subtitles it was spelled "scentuary". Neat little pun.

Yeah, I wouldn't have noticed the pun without reading the subtitles.
