#17 seconds

Not the classic it would've been had they entered the octagon when they were both at their peak in the sport, and there is certainly an argument that can be made they were mismatched from the start, but to have finished a fight in 17 seconds after a decade from the sport is nothing short of impressive. I was and will always be Team Gina but congratulations to Ronda Rousey. Seeing the respect that they displayed for each other after the match made the fan in me happy even though the fight was not an all-timer.

So I just finished watching all the way through DS9 a few weeks ago and I decided to follow S3 of Picard as new episodes drop and can I just say…

…Holy Shit, I felt GIDDY at that reveal. There is so much they could do with this - I really hope we get to see some old DS9 cast members, even if it’s just a cameo.

Also, I know the show is called “Picard”, but goddamn is Worf stealing the show. “I am Worf, son of Mogh, house of Martok, son of Sergei, house of Rozhenko, bane to the Duras family, slayer of Gowron” - damn, dude, THAT’S a way to introduce yourself…

…especially since he followed it up with “…I have made some chamomile tea. Do you take sugar?”

I just couldn't resist. In so much TV writing today, there is a desire to have twists and turns and sometimes things don't make much sense in retrospect. Though this is minor compared to some things I've seen.

At least there could've been some dialogue in which Worf tells Raffi that because the changeling was at the point at which it needed to revert to its liquid state, it couldn't transform into something to easily elude them or fight them off when they caught it. And it's possible such lines were in the script but ended up being cut.

Dr. Addison Montgomery: I know what you're going to say Richard, but if you knew the day I've had.

Dr. Richard Webber: Everybody in this hospital has those days, Addison, and no one makes a scene in front of their peers. Get it together Addison.

Dr. Addison Montgomery: I can't compete. He's not having an affair. He's not trying to hurt me. He's just... the only people who don't know that Derek loves Meredith are Derek and Meredith. How do I compete with that?

Monologue

“In life we are taught that there are seven deadly sins. We all know the big ones... gluttony, pride, lust. But the sin you don't hear much about is anger. Maybe it's because we think anger is not that dangerous, that you can control it. My point is, maybe we don't give anger enough credit. Maybe it can be a lot more dangerous than we think. After all, when it comes to destructive behavior, it did make the top seven. So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? It's pretty simple really, you give into a sin like envy or pride and you only hurt yourself. Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself and probably one or two others. But anger, anger is the worst... the mother of all sins... Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does, you can take an awful lot of other people with you.”

- Meredith Grey
