She has written a heart-wrenched, tragic letter about this experience and grief. It was very moving/difficult to read and gained me a lot of respect for her:

Can confirm that it's unavailable for me in the US as well, but if you VPN somewhere else, you can play it back.

Given that the subspace rhapsody spread to many other ships in the area, they could do a parallel episode from the point of another the ship, say the Farragut but it won't be the same primary cast.

Gooding and Chong came from musical theatre though.

This is one of the Elle Cordova Technobabble songs being referred to for the uninitiated. It's pretty funny.

If you watch the entire "The Ready Room" episode on this, you'll also have Wil Wheaton sing his intro speech for a bit.

This week’s barrage of show tunes kind of makes sense, given that this is a series that, Mr Benn-style, has been trying on a different genre every week.

I think this is one of the reasons SNW is so good.

The pick ’n’ mix approach of Strange New Worlds is a welcome palate cleanser, even if it means any overarching story arcs seem rather secondary.

And that is totally fine and even welcome!
