Discovery 3x02 - "Far From Home"

[lizbee]

Bit late this week, sorry -- for some reason moving house has really impacted my fannish work. I need to reassess my priorities.

All he did is remove a part from the panel and replace it with another one, too, and had to be directed on how to do it. How was he needed up there?

He wasn't, I think was the point! He was just doing the "I'm not going to stay in bed, I want to be useful!" routine and being a stubborn dumbass about it, and as much as I winced at how much he was hurting himself unnecessarily, I enjoyed the episode (via Jett) calling him out on it. A lot of times the hero does something like that and is lauded for their rash actions saving the day, and this time it was just like...no, you doofus. Send someone who hasn't just been stabbed in the gut up the Jeffries tube! You have a bunch of them! Geez.
