I thought it was fine. The ending of Rutherford's B-plot felt a little cheap.

Plus with Luvik around, I'm wondering what happened with Jet and if there's going to be a gang of bitter lower deckers who don't quite like the main four.

It reminds me of the episode where Rutherford tried out all those different jobs on the ship because he wanted to do something new. He was afraid to let them know he didn't like the work, but every time, they were super supportive.

I love that episode.

And the moral of "I can get stuff just by asking for it!" Is a real lesson.

“I can get stuff I deserve just by asking for it?”

Yeah man, you did the work and saved the ship, ask for your damn pip and better quarters already!
