Welcome aboard the USS Cerritos (small hills?!), listeners! Meet ensigns Boimler (nervous goody-two-shoes), Mariner (bad-ass rebel and rule-breaker), Tendi (hyper enthusiastic science officer), and Rutherford (innocent, newly-cybernetic engineer) – our plucky heroes. Don't worry about the command staff on the bridge, we're plumbing the depths of this starship – where the real action is! Namely, picking up after the higher-ups and trying to not to die.
In this pilot episode, the crew of the ship is infected with some sort of rage virus causing them to try to kill and eat each other; Tendi holds a man's heart on her first day working in sickbay, Rutherford has a date with a trill, and Boimler and Mariner fight a giant (and, as it turns out, non-carniverous) spider during a "second contact" mission. It's good clean fun.
