Mike McMahan has said the Pakleds will be a recurring villain for Lower Decks, akin to the Klingons for TOS and that can be seen in the trailer. And this computer is definitely not winning any friends, telling Mariner, “Friend I am worried about you… my scans indicate you can lose a couple of pounds.” The evil computer is voiced by Jeffrey Combs, who has portrayed eight different Star Trek characters, including fan-favorites like DS9’s Weyoun clones and Enterprise’s Shran. The second cameo was a bit more subtle, in the form of what Brad called “the evil computer,” which appeared to be a computer module ripped out of a shuttle. As Plate Paris explains, “I am a little worried about the fumes in here though, you know since you are talking to a plate.” By the way, while the conversation may have been imagined, the plate is soon to become a real product you can buy.
The Lower Decks twist is that he appears as a talking commemorative plate. The one that made the biggest splash from the trailer is Star Trek: Voyager’s Robert Duncan McNeill, reprising his role as Tom Paris, giving Brad Boimler a Jeffries Tube pep talk with, “C’mon, you’ve been in tougher spots than this.” Just like the first, season two will bring back some familiar characters and actors. The back wall also includes Jean-Luc Picard’s Fauvist painting from “A Matter of Perspective.” In addition, there are some gravity boots, which could be a nod to Star Trek VI, and a trombone, which could be related to William Riker.

Later there is a brief glimpse of an action sequence in a museum full of little nods, such as classic Star Trek weapons like a Vulcan Lirpa, Andorian Ice Cutter, Jem’Hadar Kar’takin, and a Klingon Bat’leth and Mek’leth. There are also a few familiar aliens, including a Galardonian, from the first episode of Lower Decks, so now they’re even referencing themselves.
Another possibility is Qualor II, home of the four-armed bar piano player Amarie who Riker talks to in “Unification II” a promotion for a four-armed piano player can be seen in the upper right as the four ensigns enter. While there was also a Quark’s on Freecloud in Star Trek: Picard, this appears to be a different place. Firstly, early on in the trailer we get a shot of our four ensigns at some kind of space Vegas complete with a Quark’s franchised casino, showing that Deep Space Nine’s favorite Ferengi has branched out. There are too many nods to go through but just a couple of moments from the trailer give you a sense of how the show is still sprinkling easter eggs around, some of which are pretty deep cuts. Lower Decks is well-known for gags and references tied to Star Trek canon and this trailer made it abundantly clear they are not slowing down in season two. The rest of the trailer is a rapid-fire succession of moments, showing that season two of this show is going to be a lot like season one, with just more of everything… More references Tendi sees a comet and says, “Wow, would you look at that.” With the USS Cerritos in the background, even the jaded Mariner succumbs to the moment, saying “A view like this makes you realize it doesn’t matter what deck you work on, we’re all in it together.”Īnd then the moment leaves us crushed as the Cerritos warps away, Mariner noting, “And they left us… how much oxygen do we have? A lot? A little?” Ensigns Tendi, Rutherford, Mariner, and Boimler marvel at the wonders of space during a spacewalk, standing on what might be a satellite or subspace relay. Star Trek: Lower Decks is a show about low-ranking officers who work on one of the less important ships in Starfleet and the opening sequence of the trailer drives the point home. The following analysis is based on other official releases (including the previous trailer), (and previous) commentary from the cast and crew, along with some educated speculation and contains potential spoilers. We have already done our deep dive into the teaser, and we turn our nerdy gaze to the Star Trek: Lower Decks season two trailer released during 2021.
