Make sure you stay for the POST-CREDITS scene!!!

[@andytay5507]

yes, it was fun, thx!

[@RELIANT-lt9jx]

Nice to see the Gorn again

[@RobinRice1]

Hey! Thanks so much!! Enjoyed it.

[@DishNetworkDealerNEO]

When I first saw the Gorn, and what they were were doing, I thought of a religious ceremony before the big reveal!

[@andytay5507]

did seem somewhat religious, and to an extent, it was.

[@FPjr-filkferretproductions]

Very nice team :) Enjoyed the twist :)

[@markbishop9743]

Wonderful episode congratulations one and all

[@dougsguitarlounge7927]

Love the Gorn!🖖

[@SpaceNazi62]

Very fun episode to watch👍🏻🖖🏻. I build models for a hobby and built one similar to that ship about 20 years ago.

[@rahadyans199]

Once you go Gorn, you never go salamander. (Yes, an anachronistic reference, given that it was Janeway and Paris who changed into salamanders)

[@Raymar3d]

Randy, this was a fun episode. Nice to see the Gorn as characters, not just one dimensional villains. I enjoyed it. -- Ken :)

[@rahadyans199]

AWESOME!

[@charleselswick5404]

Awesome!

[@Reziac]

Now I can't stop laughing... when the first Gorn in red appeared, I said, "It's a wedding!"

[@cwtnc]

Cool!

[@davideversole9767]

Thanks so much guys. You made it work!

[@Potemkin1711]

We're honored you gave us the opportunity!

[@TheRalphfreeman]

Brilliant just brilliant! I enjoyed very much Ralph from the UK 🇬🇧

[@randylanders3741]

Thanks!

[@funzjag]

Freakin' Gorn !

[@Capt.Marco-Hawk-L.L.A.P]

Gorn with the wind

[@MatthewCaunsfield]

Great little story. There needs to be a "silent running" mode for those communicators though! 😉

[@wernerlouderback6796]

An interesting plot twist 😅

[@jkgardner1933]

What a great Thanksgiving present, thank you for your work Love to see more, Out takes?

[@Potemkin1711]

Just the post credits scene.

[@henryseldon6077]

And now for something completely different....

[@brunozeigerts6379]

End credits scene in Star Trek... novel idea!

[@luckyroxie157]

Gotta love the shirt being ripped to shreds. Nice nod to Captain Kirk.

[@Potemkin1711]

Thanks for noticing. It's definitely iconic. We've hung onto the shirt in case we need it again! Lol.

[@JB-ym4up]

🖖

[@robertwheeler5125]

Nice nacelles :)

[@DMSProduktions]

Sssssupperrr!

[@lesliedavid1244]

Gorn wedding!

[@andytay5507]

BTW, if they know they are Gorn, Don't they know how strong they are? Why'd he even try to fight?

[@andytay5507]

Oh, Mr. Landers, you scoundrel you, a male playing the bride and a female playing the groom!😉

[@Potemkin1711]

David played the bride and Laura played the groom. We literally did a pickup shot today, and Hilda played the father of the bride (as she did in the primary shoot) and because David was stuck at work, I had to play the bride. :) In other words, I was Daddy's Little Gorn Princess. :D

[@andytay5507]

@@Potemkin1711 too funny! Sexist, but not speciesist.😉

[@dogwalker666]

In the old Pantomime tradition.

[@Z4RD4N34]

Hisssssss...

[@Matthew_Raymond]

Is that a Star Fleet Battles Gorn ship at the end?

[@Raymar3d]

No, that was a Scorpion Class Interceptor that I believe I made for them some time ago, LOL! From Star Trek Remastered, "Arena." -- Ken :)

[@HairyHarrisFilm]

Awesome! Hey, wait -- the Horn deactivated the beacon to get the Potemkin there? Wow.

[@Potemkin1711]

No, the presence of the Gorn was detected by the automated station's security sensors and the Webster was dispatched to investigate.

[@janetbailey3804]

I LOVED THAT EPISODE, I HAD A FEELING THE GORN WERE HAVING A RITUAL ENTAILING EITHER A RELIGIOUS NATURE, OR UPCOMING NUPTIALS, BY GEORGE I GUESSED IT!!!GARY BAILEY KING OF DARKNESS

[@andytay5507]

2nd!

[@andytay5507]

Hilda Hellacious?! Really?

[@rahadyans199]

No relation to Helena Highwater.

[@Lyraa357]

A comedy of errors here that could have had more dire consequences. Don't jump to conclusions and don't run in the wrong direction!! lol

[@drmayeda1930]

I don't think the webster's landing party would enjoy the feast. That one guy had a closed mind. Why such old style breathing apparatus. If anything it should be a thin belt or transparent mask like what is used for oxygen.

[@Potemkin1711]

Actually, we like the masks we used, especially since we were under COVID protocols while filming this production.

[@andytay5507]

looks like a ritual to me, religious or mating?

[@andytay5507]

yep, I nailed it.

[@barryon8706]

Creative use of masks.
