Edit: Title used to be me asking what set it was. Legitimately didn’t think it was the Battle Bridge because of how incredibly low budget it looked in comparison to the battle bridge I remembered from Farpoint. It is indeed Battle Bridge from Best of Both Worlds Part 2 as others pointed out.

I am the dumb.

      I ended up watching SNW really late. Only started Season 1 as 2 was airing and only finished Season 2 last week. That Lower Decks episode, and the Subspace Rhapsody episode, are absolute fucking joys.

      But the reason I make the comment is this. Did you know the ‘Riker!’ line was ad libbed by Jack Quaid? Both him and Frakes were doing an interview and Frakes pointed it out.

        Yes, and the fact that Frakes was standing right there directing makes the scene that much more hilarious!

          Exactly! I can’t believe I forgot to mention that.

          Frakes is a fucking excellent director so I always look forward to his episodes of Discovery and Strange New Worlds. Finding out that the fucking Lower Decks episode was the one he was directing? Perfect.

          I love that man.
