- Please no spoilers beyond this episode unless you see that later episodes have already been released. In that case, no spoilers beyond those episodes.
- This video is in a watch-along format. This means you'll need your own copy of the episode to watch alongside my reaction. This is in an effort to avoid copyright infringement.
- If you're based in the UK (or using a UK streaming site), here are instructions for how to get your copy to sync with mine.
- The show footage will play for the first 30 seconds with both video and audio. After that, the show footage will be silenced, and the video will be blurred for the remainder of the episode. There is also a count-up timer that begins once the episode has started. These things will hopefully make it easier for you to keep your copy of the episode synced with mine.

Not the best episode, quite possibly the weakest of the season (series). But it's cool because the pirate captain is a real person.

I almost feel like this is a story that would've benefited from maybe being a two-parter so we could dive deeper into things. Everything felt a little too easy/rushed once we got on the spaceship. I think going a little deeper into everything and then facing a little more conflict on the spaceship would've made this story even better.

I like the idea of a virtual doctor, although it has been done before (and arguably better) by other sci-fi franchises. Pirates are cool, and I liked the actors. The father-son relationship felt real to me, for the little time it was explored. I think the concept had a lot of potential, but this one never really resonated with me for some reason. I totally would have found a way to keep all the treasure, though!

It's a US thing for some reason they put that little recap on the BBC America airing. This is when the show was becoming bigger over there and maybe they worried people jumping on wouldn't have much context for what's happening who knows 🤷♂️

Its strange that your titles has a summery of last season in each episode this season. I'm watching in the UK on iPlayer and it doesn't have that, just the regular titles. Messes up my sync every time lol
