Moist Vessel (episode)

Captain Freeman seeks the ultimate payback after Mariner blatantly disrespects her in front of the crew. A well-meaning Tendi accidentally messes up a lieutenant's attempt at spiritual ascension and tries to make it right.
== Summary ==
=== Teaser ===
:"Stardate 57538.9. The Cerritos is working alongside the in the relocation of an ancient generation ship, which due to some unknown calamity never reached its destination. Her crew adrift for centuries, mummified in disabled cryo units. Their most precious cargo, mysterious containers of molecular fluid which generates life from inorganic material. We suspect they planned to use it on a dead planet to create a habitable environment they could call home. The Merced is here to ensure the generation ship is preserved during transportation, and I want everyone to give them full support. Captain and I both served on the Illinois many years ago, and it is a true delight to be able to work with him again."
Captain Carol Freeman is briefing her senior officers about their mission regarding the generation ship in the conference room, when she is interrupted by Ensign Beckett Mariner, who lets out a loud yawn. She orders her to distribute PADDs to her senior officers, and Captain Durango, a Tellarite, continues the briefing. He tells them that Starfleet believes the generation ship is equipped with a unique terraforming technology in the form of an elemental fluid which transforms inert matter into a living ecosystem. He also explains that towing the ship will be a very delicate procedure, and that any flux in the tractor beams could damage the vessel. As he continues, Mariner yawns again, and this insults Durango, who accuses Freeman of her crew not appreciating the mission at hand. Freeman assures him that her crew is the finest in Starfleet, only for Mariner to let out another loud yawn, much to Freeman's annoyance. It is apparent that Freeman is at her wits end with Mariner's antics.
=== Act One ===
Freeman takes Mariner into her ready room where she angrily tells Mariner that she won't stand for her disrespectful behavior anymore. Mariner doesn't seem to take the warning seriously, and leaves the ready room, sarcastically flashing the Vulcan hand salute as she leaves. Commander Jack Ransom enters the ready room and delivers the ship's sensor data to the captain. Freeman is still preoccupied with Mariner, admitting that she doesn't know what to do to curb this behavior from her. Ransom suggests assigning her the worst tasks on the Cerritos to potentially influence Mariner to request a transfer off the ship. Freeman happily accepts this idea.
In the lower decks crew quarters, the crew is getting their assigned tasks for the day. Ensign Brad Boimler is excited to get to clean up the ship's conference rooms, happy to potentially get better food from their replicators. Ensign Sam Rutherford is disappointed he has to monitor power fluctuations in the tractor beam instead of monitor power fluctuations in the impulse relays. Ensign D'Vana Tendi runs over and excitedly explains how she's about to watch the ascension of one of the crew. Mariner checks her duties and sees that she's been assigned lubing the turbolift, removing waste from the holodeck, and scraping carbon off the carbon filter. Boimler compares carbon filter cleaning to an activity in a Klingon prison and Mariner can't help but feel suspicious she's getting some of the worst jobs on the ship.
Tendi enters the quarters of Lieutenant O'Connor, who is sitting in meditation in front of a sand mandala that took him two years to make. She joins the other gathered crewmembers and sits next to O'Connor but is distracted by a Tzutchian gong. As she goes over to look at it, she hears the crew behind her begin to exclaim that O'Connor has begun his ascension, and she turns around, accidentally knocking the gong off its pedestal. The gong rolls across the sand mandala, and she accidentally slides across it, trying to catch it, destroying the mandala in the process. O'Connor is mortified by the accident, and Tendi tries desperately to fix it with no success.
Boimler and Mariner are walking in the corridor, going to start their tasks, and Mariner seems to be dwelling on the nature of hers. Boimler just proudly heads off to start with the executive conference room, sarcastically flashing the Vulcan salute to her as he leaves in a turbolift and looking forward to having lobster ravioli. Mariner denies the salute "looks cool" when Boimler performs it, but as soon as the turbolift doors close, she frustratingly admits to herself that it does. Mariner begins by removing the unpleasant-smelling waste contained in the holodeck biofilters, then lubing the turbolift. While she works on top of Turbolift 9's car roof, Shaxs disregards the 'Ensign At Work' warning sign outside the turbolift car and uses it, forcing the alarmed Mariner to call for an emergency stop from the computer and is splashed in the face with lubricant. She then joins two other crewmembers in the repair bay to help scrape the carbon filter with phasers, but finds fun in the task when she suggests that the three race each other in who can finish their section the fastest. Just as Mariner wins in front of a small group of cheering crewmembers, Ransom passes by the open doorway and observes this.
In engineering, Rutherford works with Chief Engineer Andy Billups to sync the tractor beams with the Merced, and the two ships begin towing the generation ship. Rutherford finds himself enjoying the task more than he thought he would.
Tendi meanwhile goes back to O'Connor's quarters and apologizes for ruining his ascension ritual. She gives him a Hiverian metronome, hoping it will help him potentially finish his ascension. O'Connor angrily destroys the metronome and says he doesn't want her help.
On the bridge, Freeman asks if Mariner has requested a transfer yet, but Ransom reports that she seems to be finding ways to insert some enjoyment in her tasks, despite their odious nature. In the Captain's ready room, realizing that the plan isn't working Freeman doesn't seem to be convinced that there's something they can do to get Mariner to resign as she looks out the window. However, noticing in the window's reflection that Ransom is admiring his flexed muscles, Freeman suddenly gets an idea that she is certain will work. She has Mariner report to Conference Room Five.
=== Act Two ===
Mariner reports to the conference room and sees the senior officers all sitting at the table, while Boimler is washing the windows in the room. Mariner jokes about if they're debating about the Prime Directive, which they laugh at. Mariner seems confused as to why they'd laugh at her jab, since she's making fun of them, but Freeman approaches and says that she's only making fun of herself, since Freeman's decided to make Mariner one of her senior officers. She then promotes Mariner two ranks to full lieutenant, much to both Mariner and Boimler's horror. Ransom gives Mariner an operations uniform and the senior staff applaud her promotion, while Boimler seems on the verge of a panic attack. Mariner tries to excuse herself, but Freeman sits her down as a participant in their current staff meeting. Shaxs starts the meeting off by saying they need new conference room chairs. Mariner finds herself quickly bored, much to Freeman's delight, as the senior officers begin to argue what kind of chairs they should have.
Mariner quickly finds herself in discomfort with her new position as she is constantly called upon to do multiple trivial tasks ranging from mission audit, management training (which is actually watching other crewmembers perform, like Freeman doing a vocal jazz scat), and a poker game with the senior officers, during which Shaxs scolds her for going all in during a friendly game and she expresses frustration that the officers always fold, which Freeman takes delight in seeing.
In the mess hall, Tendi is stressing about how she's trying to help O'Connor ascend, but how he refuses to let her help him. Rutherford asks her if she might be taking things a little too far, but Tendi simply says that her approach will have to work as she dedicates herself to studying twice as hard in an effort to blow O'Connor away in spirituality. Tendi excuses herself, saying Rutherford can finish her taco lunch, and Rutherford happily takes her pudding.
Boimler enters Mariner's new quarters, seeing a very unhappy Mariner laying on her bed, missing how close everyone was down in the lower decks. Boimler just wonders what she did to get her promotion, and Mariner seems just as dumbfounded as he is as to how it happened. Mariner is then called upon to review the scheduled ops, and she leaves her quarters in an unenthusiastic mood. Thinking that perhaps the senior officers like officers who break the rules, more than simply follow them, Boimler decides he will try to break protocol.
Tendi has dressed herself like a priest and follows O'Connor around engineering while chanting a prayer. O'Connor angrily asks her if she has work to do, and Tendi replies that she's using her vacation days to help him. She tells him that mixing and matching different prayers from other cultures might increase his chance of ascending. O'Connor once more begs her to leave him be, before she releases a swarm of florkas at him, which she identifies as being an essential part of ascension for the Tamarians. O'Connor angrily tells her that she's just a villain who destroyed his chance for ascension, and she embraces him, begging to help him align his spirituality.
Boimler wanders the ship, thinking of how he might be able to break the rules like Mariner, when he is called to report for bridge duty. He schemes that he will report for bridge duty, and he will give the bridge crew "exactly what they deserve," without realizing that the bridge officer heard his scheme over the combadge.
Mariner enters Freeman's ready room, and Freeman amusingly asks her for a status update. Mariner gives an unserious answer, to which Freeman offers to find her another post on a different ship if she feels like she doesn't fit in. Mariner declines and is about to leave, when Freeman informs her that later she'll have to attend Ransom's mandatory birthday party, during which he will be singing songs he wrote on his acoustic guitar about his month spent in Barcelona. Mariner tells Freeman that she knows what she's trying to do, and that she's a dick for it.
The Cerritos and Merced continue towing the generation ship, and on the bridge of the Merced, Durango begins to silently stare at Freeman's portrait on his viewscreen. After checking that the generation ship's hull has no vibrations, he believes that the position of his ship does not reflect well that he is in charge of the mission; he has his helmsman get them closer to the ship despite the lieutenant's objection that the Cerritos is in a better physical position to do so. However, Durango doesn't realize that their closer position is effectively increasing the strength of the Merceds tractor beam, and a hull plate of the generation ship under the strain of the increased pull begins to buckle.
On the Cerritos, Ensign Barnes informs Ransom of the Merceds position, and Ransom hails the Merced, informing them that they are out of formation. Durango angrily says that he doesn't have to explain himself to a commander and that the protection of the ship is his duty, but immediately after he says this, the generation ship suffers a hull breach and the elemental fluid begins to escape the ship. Drawn in by the tractor beam, the fluid slams into and begins to cover the hull of the Merced and immediately begins to terraform the exterior and interior of the ship. Durango reports that the fluid has engulfed his hull before the Cerritos loses contact with the Merced. Alarmed, Ransom tries to execute evasive maneuvers to avoid having the fluid be drawn in by their own tractor beam but is unsuccessful as things are moving too fast; the fluid reaches the Cerritos and begins to transform her as well. Ransom informs Freeman about what the fluid is doing, and as he does this, Boimler deliberately spills hot coffee on his lap, making Ransom angrily scold him.
Evacuations begin on the decks that are being affected by the fluid, but the structural integrity of the ship is rapidly degrading. The crew initiates force fields to help contain the terraforming, but it's clear that this won't stop the fluid for long. In the ready room, Mariner notices a drop in air pressure and a rise in humidity, concluding that the air is being modified, and shortly afterward, rocks begin to penetrate the bulkheads of the ready room all around Freeman and Mariner.
=== Act Three ===
Terraforming continues throughout the ship with certain decks being flooded with water, and others getting modified with different terrain. Rutherford avoids getting hurt with the help of his cybernetic implant.
Water begins to flood engineering, as a coral reef begins to form around the warp core. O'Connor and Tendi are trapped, with the water rapidly rising. O'Connor angrily vents how Tendi ruined his ascension, but Tendi simply returns the anger saying that despite her attempts to help him, that he's only been a jerk to her, and that she never cared about helping him ascend, but just wanted him to like her. O'Connor seems taken aback by this, and Tendi confesses that she just wants people to like her, and that if someone doesn't like her, it stays with her and disrupts her. O'Connor then confesses that his ascension was never going to happen, and that he had been faking it in an attempt to stand out from the crew. But with the amount of time it took for him to potentially ascend, he was worried the crew would figure out that he was pretending and used Tendi's accident to make it seem like it was her fault. Realizing that they were "both jerks" Tendi realizes that she and O'Connor are actually friends and hugs him.
Freeman and Mariner are tunneling through the new terrain in the ship in an effort to reach the ship's environmental controls. Freeman seems concerned that the rock that Mariner is using isn't the best for digging, which only seems to annoy Mariner. The two bicker with each other as they continue to dig through the tunnel, talking over one another until they reach a shaft. They begin to rappel down the shaft using vines that have grown into the walls, and Freeman voices concern to make sure that Mariner is gripping the vine with both hands and isn't going too fast. Mariner only tells her to stop treating her like a child, which in turn makes Freeman tell her to stop acting immature. Mariner simply replies that Freeman is being immature in return by trying to trick her into quitting her job on the Cerritos.
In engineering, the water level is rising, and the room is nearly completely flooded, but before the water completely fills the room, Tendi dives and grabs one of the glowing, spherical pink coral formations, which they've witnessed exploding when dislodged. She slams it onto the wall of engineering, and it breaches the bulkhead when it detonates, releasing the water into the hall, saving them. However, as they get up, the hall rumbles, and a large rock falls from the ceiling towards Tendi. Before it falls on her however O'Connor pushes her out of the way, and the rock falls on him, severely injuring him. Tendi rushes to his side to try and lift the rock off of him, but he tells her to save herself. Tendi refuses to leave him.
Mariner and Freeman exit a Jefferies tube and are happy to see the environmental controls are still online. Mariner reports that the affected areas of the ship are saturated with carbon polymer dust and concludes that combating the affected areas with Parizene gas would reverse the terraforming effect with radiation from the main deflector. Freeman is impressed with the conclusion, saying that it would have been what she suggested, and asks if Mariner by chance read her mission brief. Mariner admits she skimmed it to potentially make fun of it later. They proceed to vent the Perizene gas into the ship, instantly neutralizing the terraforming back into elemental fluid.
As the gas combats the terraforming, the rock on top of O'Connor dissolves into fluid, and he and Tendi laugh as they realize they will be okay. They reconcile, and kiss, and as soon as they kiss, O'Connor begins to levitate. O'Connor seems scared by what's happening as his body begins to glow, but Tendi realizes that O'Connor has begun to ascend, realizing that O'Connor's act of sacrifice was what truly aligned his spirituality. However, shortly after the process begins, O'Connor feels a burning sensation, and as his body begins to illuminate, he panics and begins to regret ascending. As he begins to transform into pure energy, he begins to see that time has no meaning, he is everywhere and nowhere, and that he can see everything. Tendi can't help but wonder why the process is taking abnormally long. O'Connor begins to scream in pain as he says he can see Abraham Lincoln, and that the entire universe is balanced on the back of a giant, smiling . Before he can reveal what the secret of life is, he vanishes, leaving his boots to fall to the deck and Tendi wishes him luck in his new life, before apologizing for helping him ascend.
Ransom reports to Freeman that the terraforming effect on the ship has been neutralized, but that the damage done to the Merced is far greater, and that the ship cannot be saved. With the ship's life support at a critical level, Freeman and Mariner initiate an emergency transport for the entire crew of the Merced to go directly into the stasis chamber of the generation ship. With a successful transport of the entire crew, Mariner and Freeman hug each other for a brief moment.
Later, the generation ship has been brought to a Federation outpost, and the Cerritos is leaving. Mariner and Freeman stand in the conference room, awaiting the arrival of Admiral Vassery. As they wait, Freeman commends her daughter, and expresses that she is happy that they were able to work together. Mariner agrees that it was a nice change of pace, compared to their usual habitual conflicts. Freeman tells Mariner how proud she is of her, and wonders if Mariner is indeed fit to be one of her senior officers. Mariner doesn't seem to care for this idea.
Vassery enters the conference room and is welcomed by Freeman. Vassery awards both Mariner and Freeman with a medal, before excusing himself, noting that they've picked up a strange signal with their sensors. Mariner cannot help but laugh at how Vassery pronounces the word "sensors" as "sense-oars." Freeman tries to say that this is how the word is said, but Mariner simply replies that it's not how Freeman has ever said it. Vassery angrily asks if Freeman's crew treats authority like this and asks if they are making fun (pronounced "foun") of him. Freeman angrily scolds Mariner for her behavior, and Vassery begins to reprimand her, only to be interrupted by a loud yawn from Mariner.
In the lower decks crew quarters, Tendi and Rutherford are discussing O'Connor's ascension, and Tendi says that she realizes that life is too short to be hung up on whether or not everyone likes her. Rutherford is happy she sees this and says that there will always be a few people on the Cerritos who probably don't like her. Tendi laughs it off before she obsessively tries to get Rutherford to tell her who doesn't like her and what they say about her.
Boimler notices Mariner back in the crew quarters and wearing command red and asks what happened to her lieutenant's pip. Mariner simply replies how she's always been good at getting demoted; apparently, Freeman doesn't like "looking stupid in front of admirals." Boimler only seems flustered that Mariner had everything that Boimler had been striving to achieve, and never cared about it. When he asks how they even became friends, Mariner replies that she still has her senior officer access card which gives access to the good replicator programs. Boimler excitedly leaves with the card to get some macaroni and cheese with a breaded top. Mariner lays back in her bunk, happy to be where she belongs: with everyone in the lower decks, while Tendi is twisting Rutherford's arm to get information out of him.

=== Production history ===
* : Title publicly revealed 
=== Production ===
* This is the second installment of the series where the teaser of the episode is part of the primary plot instead of an unrelated bit, after .
=== Continuity ===
* This is the first episode of the series where Beckett Mariner calls Captain Carol Freeman "Mom" or is even willing to acknowledge their relationship. In the series premiere, , their relationship was first revealed to the audience, and the plot of this episode is a continuation of that theme.
* This is the second episode of the series in which one of its main characters, in this case Beckett Mariner, is seen wearing multiple uniforms with different division colors within a single episode. Previously, Ensign Sam Rutherford wore all three colors in .
* A humanoid transforming, evolving, or "ascending" into a non-corporeal lifeform is a well-established Star Trek trope, with previous examples including John Doe in and Kes in . Tendi dismisses Rutherford's comparisons with Q and the Traveler, though the changes undergone by Amanda Rogers (an apparent Human who was revealed to be a member of the Q Continuum in ) and Wesley Crusher (who joined the Traveler to explore different planes of existence in ) are not completely dissimilar from the "ascension" sought by O'Connor.
* In talking about ascension practices, Tendi mentions Tamarians, a species last seen in , though a Tamarian artifact was seen in .
* Boimler uses the holodeck character as a cover for something he accidentally says out loud over his communicator. Moriarty was seen in and , and referenced in .
* A crewmember is seen in this episode to be wearing a VISOR, like that worn by Geordi La Forge throughout .
