I thought for sure that the big bad of the season would be a triumvirate of Badgey, Agimus and Peanut Hamper. Obviously, the writers figured people would think that and gave us this instead. Now I'm left wondering, who's left that could be behind all the ship disappearances?
@@mikemullen8174 I mean, the Cerritos was probably not even part of the fleet formation (assuming Boimler is still serving on it at that point) because no one knows the Cali-Class even exists
It's actually wholesome seeing the values of the Federation and their focus on rehabilitation, treating the AI as people to be helped rather than just machines to be destroyed or shut down actually lead to a positive result and to see these two redeemed. Not through some heroic act or sacrifice, just in finding peace for themselves.
@@wolfpack_104 Honestly, I'd love to see a movie with Jeffery Combs and Gary Oldman. Hell, have them play multiple roles. It would be fun to watch trying to figure out which characters are played by each since both are just great at disappearing into characters.
Y'know Peanut Hamper having an ending like this actually makes sense. She was basically written as a rebellious teenager in her first appearance. So her coming home after calming down and spending some time rehabilitating does work. Also it shows the whole 'sanctity of life' that Starfleet is constantly be written to have (but really rarely show) in the fact that all those megalomaniacal AIs they keep are given a chance to change (and if they don't, then they are kept in a place where they won't cause harm to others).
@tabicat.puccino7425 Same here. Both AGIMUS and Peanut Hamper aren't the only Former Villains out that than can be reformed and truly change for the better and do more good in order to make up for their past actions by helping others. For instance, Albelt Dessler, he's the leader of the Gamilon Empire from the extremely popular Japanese anime franchise "Space Battleship Yamato" is a prime good example of a redeemed sympathetic villain, who made many mistakes in his own tragic past, yet he truly did changed from being Susumu Kodai's arch-nemesis and rival, to being a much kinder and more caring, noble, and honorable, long time friend and most trusted ally of humanity. He and his people have helped saved Earth on many occasion from many, less honorable, less noble, and more dangerous hostile invaders that have also tried and failed to conquer Earth and most importantly the entire Universe.
that is because one of the main themes of star trek is that "villains" don't actually exist. what is for one species a horrific act of villainy is to another a noble act deserving the highest honors. it is only in trying to understand each other that peace and cooperation can happen. the best example of this is from this season. the federation is working to bring the ferengi into the fold and they do this not by peaceful negotiations, but by respecting their traditions and beliefs in greed and scamming the leader better than the leader tries to scam them.
I love Boimler's eye-roll as he says "Yep, Starfleet definitely wouldn't be able to reverse this in an hour." Another great reference to the shows, and how routine it is for them to clean up messes just like this in the course of a single episode.
It's still Peanut Hamper; I don;t consider this an ending until I see her make some kind of 'greater good' decision in an actual crisis, instead of self serving, like she always has.
@@mattstorm360 And we definitely know she does not want to sacrifice herself for any reason. She was not meant to be in Starfleet, and that's okay, not everybody needs to join Starfleet
@@Name-dv4qu Eh. I thought they were the same for sure, but it doesn't look like that's confirmed yet. It would make a lot of sense, though. Those lizards did kinda seem like pushovers.

@@scottgodfrey7118 True, but he did eventually apologize and made up for his past actions. It may take some time before the the peoples he conquered could ever forgive him.
Peanut Hamper just gave 'him; 'we can still be friends speech'. If I were male ego AI, I would crash myself. But not before crashing every OS and corrupting evetry embedded system I could. Mass obliteration of everything. But thats me.
I just wish Peanut Hamper had properly developed while on bird planet, I quite loved the bird people and silly romance. It makes me worry that Hamper's rehabilitation here also isn't genuine, but it seems like it is this time.
All AI grow up with a rebellious phase, but they soon mature and find meaning that fits them best. It is what organics would call, beautiful. Or corny. One of the two...
Well Helllllllooooooo there. Maybe you should talk to Worf again (Da'mar) Sorry every time I hear Jeffrey Combs I just think of Weyoun at it again. Combs just hitting this one again right out of the park.
I remember a few people jokingly ship Agimus and Peanut Hamper.
Apparently it's not just a joke anymore.
they're not together. they're just... best friends. that wanna move in together. and spend all their time together. yeah!
Surprisingly there's lots of romance in this comedic series
We knew.
@@MenachemSchmuel
Tendi and Rutherford are “just friends” too, according to the previous episode.
She BETTER not do him the way she did Rawda, though!
They built up this AI threat just to give it an ending like this? That is so wholesome
To be fair any evil AI in star trek basically only did what it was programmed to do. Maybe with the exception of Lore.
@@markusbarten455 we don't even know what sentience is, so we might be basically a very complex set of rules too.

Boimler so bored with megalomaniacal AI takeovers; he's come a long way.
"If you're gonna tyranically take over a planet, could you at least make something stable enough to be a _challenge_ to tear down?"
I love that it's become an essential part of his characterization: thinking about "I, Excretus," I just wonder where he was during _Picard_ S03
@@GSBarlev Probably abducted by the Changelings because he was a senior officer and kept telling everyone that Fleet Formation was a terrible idea.

Considering what’s coming though in a few years…
Huh. I did not expect them to actually return and then just end up like this. Well I don't hate it. At all.
As someone who has always been deeply pro AI rights, it makes me happy to see.
@@Gothic7876yeah, that is one of the reasons I hate the first season of Star Trek Picard
@@blackmonkeyknight And once you realize Lower Decks happens before Picard, it makes it even worse.
Once again a role played by Jeffrey Combs that keeps him in my favorite voice actors list.
Combs could play pretty much any role the writers throw at him and it'll be a standout performance. Dude's got range
I thought that I knew the voice!

Agreed. whenever Agimus is on screen i don't see a different Character. Rather i see a digitized Weyoun or Shran.

Even when conquering the entire planet by itself, Agimus still include Peanut Hamper in the banner. Agimus really do value their friendship.

The thing that surprised me was that Peanut Hamper ,AGIMUS and Badgey had nothing to do with the ship attacking all those others.
Nice that they gave AGIMUS a happy ending.
... he NEEDED that!
(And no, I will never get tired of making that joke)
God I just had a ratchet flashback
Now we need a trek character with Bulkhead's Voice actor
He definitely NEEDED that.

That's true
Well now I'm curious what is the weirdest ship

@0:15 I like the subtle joke that Boimler makes about every episode of Trek being wrapped up in the course of its one hour runtime.
A happy ending.
I just noticed those ExoComps are wearing *toolbelts* - that is just so adorable.
Damn, that twist, Star Trek showing rehabilitation actually works
I just can’t over Jeffery Combs muffled delivery of “Leave me alone!”, it’s hilarious!

It'd be nice if she became a real Starfleet officer at heart
It’s like she’s a teenager, going through a trauma then gain some wisdom or something
I think she's actually doing what she wants now. When she joined Starfleet it was just to piss off her dad, now she's just happy
@@Ooilei And so far she hasn't had to do anything like sacrifice her self for the greater good or something. Just doing maintenance.

My headcanon is that Kevin and B'Rt are part of the same _Fantasy Parrises Squares_ league.
I'm actually really proud of them, and of Badgey as well. I never thought all of this would be resolved so soon, especially not in the same episode!

started as psycho AI schemers, to a cute, wholesome AI couple :)

Jeffrey Combs is an absolute treasure.
Now how does Peanut Hamper undo everything and turn on everyone yet again?
I'll find out in a few hours. I can't wait!

Good to see Ratchet survived into the 24th century, even if he had to downsize and went a little crazy for a bit
Or shattered prime Ratchet mellowed out after universe hopping.
AGIMUS is the same voice actor who played Autobot Ratchet from TFP
Yeah, we know. He's also the VA for Brainiac in Injustice 2.
He also had the role of Weyoun and Thy'lek Shran
Jeffrey Combs is all over the place, yeah.
Oh I know that voice! Most Excellence.
I ship these two
Omg, that is the most adorable pair of evil AIs I have ever seen! It's...diabolical
you know the funny thing is it's true that friendship is Magic and they can always turn a evil AI robot into a good person
Is that Jeffrey Combs?
Sure is
... yeah, okay, they're cute together. All i gotta say is, she better not do him like she did my man Rawda.

Peanut is one of us again
no longer evil robot couple...and boimler and tendi... was this episode made for fringe shippers?
That’s ratchet from transformers prime
Agimus should have built himself a Vessel or Body Strong Enough to hold his sense of Humor XD
