I feel like maybe Rios doesn’t satisfactorily appreciate just how hard the twenty-first century sucks.

But we have actual cigars that can give you actual cancers that we don’t actually know how to cure, so it’s all good!

It is definitely a Star Trek tradition for one of the crewmates to suddenly be ready to give up their current life for someone they fell in love with a few days ago. But this feels like the worst example of that. You really gonna walk away from your communist utopia after receiving a crash course in just how thoroughly your rights will be violated if you stay? You sure you want that, Rios?

And nobody even comments on this fact! Nobody even says, “Rios, you are really going to choose to live in this hell century?”

And this could have been fixed so easily! “Yeah, I’ve seen how terrible it is. And that’s why I need to stay here. Because I know it can get better. So I can give these people hope. It’ll be hard, but it’s the right thing to do.”

But instead it was just about how he’s never felt like he belonged somewhere before???
