Welcome to Set Phasers, A Highly Illogical Star Trek Podcast!

Star Trek: Lower Decks | Season 3 Episode 1 ”Grounded”

The Cerritos Lower Deckers are back!  ...but they are also grounded on Earth while Star Fleet looks into the accusations that Captain Freeman blew up the capital city of Pakled planet. So... it's not great. 

 
Nonetheless, the Lower Deckers are making the most of it. Rutherford and Tendi are making the most of it, seeing the sites on earth. Boimler is working hard at his family's *raisin* vineyard. 
 
And Mariner... well, Mariner, believing Star Fleet is looking for someone to take the fall for the Packled planet incident, is not supremely confident the trial will go well for her mother. Frustrated with the advice from her father to trust in the system, she enlists the rest of the LDers on a desperate (and very much unsanctioned) mission to clear her mother's name.
 
It goes... well.
