Just realized I have an appreciation for scenes where the thing is happening and spreading through the ship but no one notices it yet and continue on with normal activities. Especially when it’s a multi-step cascade kinda scenario followed by a catastrophic failure where the crew first needs to solve the “how to survive” problem before moving on to “ok wtf just happened” problem.
There’s a late season episode…I forget the name, Troi is in her standard uniform and they’re in the DS9 Runabout set, where they notice time pausing. And they act like it’s such a weird event. “Oh my god Geordi just stopped mid-sentence like the video has to buffer.”
The thing is, by this time in the series, they shouldn’t be acting shocked, once they resume they should be going like “By the way, I just saw you pause for what I perceived to be 10 or 20 seconds, then resume. I think we’ve got time anomalies.” They’ve seen weird space shit on a daily basis for years by this point, they should be discussing time anomalies like wine, talking about mouthfeel and finish.
