This week continues Star Trek: Lower Decks’ second season, and we’ve got a new set of images from “Where Pleasant Fountains Lie” today!
While this week we’re set to focus on gentle chief engineer Lt. Commander Billups (Paul Scheer) aboard the Cerritos, as a royal “Queen Billups” makes an appearance — and it seems he travels with Ensign Rutherford (Eugene Cordero) to the queen’s ship.
The episode’s other story features the return of fan-favorite Star Trek guest star Jeffrey Combs as a sentient computer — who gets stuck with Ensigns Mariner (Tawny Newsome) and Boimler (Jack Quaid) after a shuttle crash leaves them stranded on a barren planet.
Here are nine new images from this week’s episode:
