There’s been a marked shift in tone this season, to a much more self-contained episodic format, reminiscent of TOS, TNG and Voyager. Judged on that basis, this might be the best episode of the season so far. The junkyard rescue was plain fun, and everyone seemed to get something to do in the episode. It wrapped things up nicely. The failure to focus on the Burn and the difficulties that would be inherent in travelling one thousand years in the future is frustrating, but only if you focus on it. Thankfully enough happens in this episode that you don’t have to.
