I'm reading this even though I haven't watched the last two episodes. (I'm finding 40-year old episodes of Trek less sexist and racist, unbelievably.)

Bummer that the writers aren't bothering to do anything with Dean's storyline. Maybe it's worth stepping back, letting the eps pile up, and finding out from others if they ever bother to go anywhere with his arc?

Seems like there should be some good fix-it fic, at least?
