You know T'Pol, it's not too late to remake first contact to be a bit more Terran. (startrek.website)

Mariner, geez. You've been weathering that stem bolt for so long, it probably can't even self seal anymore.

Same first thought here. That was a great gag.

I don’t get that joke. Why would she be weathering it?

The bulk of the joke is centered on the ongoing chronicles of Nog and Jake's business ventures on DS9. As for weathering, idunno, maybe creating a falsely aged set of parts to go along with that shuttle for a mission a la the TNG episode "Lower Decks"

I've finally gotten around to watching season 3 of Discovery and noticed a self-sealing stem bolt reference.

The episode happen to deal with a particular pain in the neck? I think I know the reference

Episode 6, I think.

Aesthetics, probably. The Sequoia could easily be made to look shiny and new, but they didn't do that.

Gently whispered: patina
