Hey, everyone, I'm Mike McMahan.
I'm the creator and EP of Star Trek: Lower Decks,
and I am here to talk to you about Easter eggs.
So in Episode 2, Mariner and Boimler end up on a planet
that has a lot of planets on it
in the form of streets that have been taken over
by different Star Trek races.
There's a little Klingon town, a Little Qo'noS,
and a Little Andoria town,
and Little Risa is popular.
In each of those little areas, there are
Easter eggs that reference the alien races
that inspired them.
My favorite might be
that there's the in accurately translated Klingon text,
a Little Qo'noS sign above the entrance
to the Klingon part of town.
And then of course, the fountain in Little Risa
is a horga'hn, which, it means you're gonna have a good time.
So if you dig through that episode, you'll see
a lot of references to the different alien races.
