No cry count! Boooooo! That's how we know to mark a good episode.
I mostly known Keiko from an episode my roommate told me about, which is why she likes Keiko. Something she does in particular. But I can't remember all the details. Maybe your opinion will change! (Or maybe she'll continue to be The Worst)
Keiko has a good idea about a school-- there's a lot of things that could be taught cross-culturally and fact checked-- though I wonder if she has any credentials outside of being the only one willing to do it. Navigating the social/cultural aspects would be pretty tough. Good luck, girl.
One downside to Trek, or really many sci-fi related projects, is how the social climate of the era gets transposed on the future. These 90s shows have so much heteronormativity/misogony/etc that it can feel really werid seeing it depicted in storylines when society is supposed to have "evolved" beyond that.
Odo having to spend time as sentient goo is kinda hilarious. I wonder if his "default" humanoid form is actually "natural" to him, or one he considers appealing so he set it as his standard. And did they say how long he has to be stuck as Flubber? That seems like it would be kinda boring. Well, actually, if it's the equivalent to a human sleeping, I guess it wouldn't be so bad. As long as he's not totally conscious for it.
