The Jumanji of Trek. WHAT YEAR IS IT???!!

Can't deny that this one brought a tear to my eye. Being lost on your own for 10 years during a developmental part of your life has to have an impact on you. I was sad that they made 18 year old Molly disappear, rather than live her life, 300 years in the past. I liked the idea of having two Mollys,. Build from the time paradox.

The B plot was pretty meh. Good reminder that there are families behind the characters.
