TOS Part II: Surprise Surprise… It’s Brains in a Cave!

Episode 2: Caves Why are so many caves embedded into these underground structures? What do these caves represent in these episodes? Why are cave episodes and the prime directive so intertwined? What is the dramatic purpose of a cave in a story? Why don’t machines tunnel out caves? Join Ashlyn and Rhianna as we discuss these questions and more in this second Caves Original Series episode. This is the second episode of the Caves series, where Ashlyn and Rhianna talk about the caves episode in every Star Trek show, discussing every Star Trek series. SPOILER WARNING: Star Trek the Original Series, Final Frontier, Undiscovered Country, Star Trek 2009 & Star Trek Beyond, as well as the TAS Episodes “Albatross” and “Once Upon a Planet” Next week, we’ll head to the Next Generations to review the Caves episodes.
