Tawny Newsome : That ’s an authoritative moment because , to me , that form of highlights the type of humor that ’s permissable in Star Trek . Because there ’s a mint of dissimilar proceeds of me doing dissimilar [ mime ] … But I was very conscious of that moment [ of Mariner miming Pike ’s wheelchair ] seeming in any direction abelist . You do n’t want to make fun of someone who ’s suffered an trauma like that . But what I was trying to make fun of was the ridiculous , oldschool delineation of what they thought in the future you would be put into if you had an chance event like that . That ’s a eminent - given … that ’s a lot to communicate with a dyad of hand move , but I do think that ’s an important distinction , and that ’s where Star Trek works best . You ’re not gon na make merriment of someone who ’s had an accident . You are gon na mildly poke fun at old school future - disposed thinking . So yeah , that was very fun . I was glad to see that it made it in , and it did n’t piss Anson off too much .
Jonathan Frakes : That was the take we chose because it was clear by the animalism . The precise tone that you just described was what you did for us .
Bill Wolkoff : I want to give props to Anson for that scene , too . I think that tantrum really does show how the show wound up work so well . you may have that next - level satirization moment Tawny brings to it , and then still stay found in the emotion that he fetch to the scene . Because it is a very emotional setting for him , and he did that so well . I be intimate that picture showing how the worlds of Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds were able-bodied to forgather on coarse ground .
