00:00 Who knew a bunch of criminals would hate Starfleet?
00:02 - I did, which is why the mission was a success,
00:05 as I knew it would be.
00:06 - Captain Freedman is an amazing captain.
00:11 - Hey.
00:12 - Oh, he's good.
00:13 You better run.
00:14 (screaming)
00:14 - Thanks again for the mimosas.
00:16 - My pleasure.
00:18 Happy hunting.
00:19 - Let's be honest, that smooth, silky voice helps.
00:21 - I aced my hoodlums and racketeers seminar at the academy.
00:25 Let me do the talking.
00:26 - And then you can like fight well
00:28 and you have like great knowledge of how to do things
00:30 and it's done in such a calm way.
00:31 Like that's what you want from a captain.
00:33 - Captain, we have engineers who could--
00:35 - Stand down, Jack.
00:36 I minored in archaic technology back at the academy.
00:40 - Captain Freeman comes to the Cerritos
00:43 with her own legacy of excellence, of accomplishments.
00:47 So she's a woman to be respected.
00:49 - Happy birthday, Captain.
00:50 - I might be getting up in years,
00:52 but I still hold the Hydra Scoot Speed record
00:54 back at the academy.
00:56 - She goes by the rules.
00:58 She does all she can to promote what is Starfleet
01:01 and what's the right thing to do.
01:03 - Okay, look, will you stop eating these guys
01:05 if we give you food replicators?
01:07 - I don't know.
01:08 Can they make nutrient pellets?
01:10 - Yes.
01:10 - She commands a presence.
01:12 She commands your attention.
01:14 - Ahoy, Captain.
01:15 - Ahoy.
01:15 - I think she's an incredible character.
01:17 - I'm Captain Carol Freeman.
01:19 This is my crew and you are letting us into that party.
01:23 - Sometimes you really just have to push the envelope
01:25 and I think any great Star Trek captain
01:29 has been the person to say, you know what?
01:31 Yes, I know there are rules.
01:33 Yes, I know there are parameters,
01:34 but I also have my gut, which is why I'm the captain.
01:37 So we're gonna do it this way.
01:39 - Star Trek captains are like a little bit
01:42 annoyed at everyone all the time.
01:43 Like Picard had that great quality of just being like
01:45 so little bit tired of everybody's quirks.
01:48 - She was really strict in the first season.
01:51 She was sort of intractable.
01:53 - Why are you laughing?
01:54 - Oh, (beep)
01:55 I'm serious.
01:55 - Go get your departments in order now.
01:57 - As the seasons have gone on,
01:59 we've seen her let loose a little bit.
02:00 And I like seeing that evolution for her
02:02 that we get to see her cut loose and be funnier.
02:04 And in some ways that makes her more captain-y.
02:06 - Approaching the mystery station, Captain.
02:08 - I hope this isn't a Romulan thing.
02:10 I hate the neutral zone.
02:12 - Right?
02:12 - I like that Captain Freeman is like kind of silly.
02:15 - She said I'm hot.
02:16 - You freaking are.
02:17 I got a hot mom.
02:19 - Oh, thank you, sweetie.
02:20 I tried something new with my hair.
02:22 - She's tough and she's good at her job
02:24 and she's a hard ass, but she's just kind of goofy.
02:27 Like I always go back to her warp catchphrase.
02:30 - Warp me.
02:31 - Any captain that says warp me,
02:32 I'm like, that's a weirdo.
02:34 I like that.
02:34 (gunshot)
02:35 - It's her heart, which makes the heart of the ship,
02:38 which makes the heart of the stories that we're following.
02:41 - To the captain.
02:42 - No, no, no.
02:43 - To the Cerritos.
