Klingon runs out crying like a little girl.
"I came to counsel him and instead he counselled me! ..... puts his hands to his face mwahhhhhhh"
Yes, he practices CBT: Combat & Battle Therapy
Does CBT cure PTSD, or does it cause PTSD?
Yes.
At least its not the other kind of CBT
I tried rubbing CBT oil on my feet to help with my anxiety. I couldn't walk right and was peeing blood for weeks.
DS9 would be at 699.94% efficiency with this crew!
Yeah, but they'd have to deal with a 3,556.23% increase in irish drinking songs.
I hear he's partial to an old Earth ditty called "Louie Louie"
How is that a problem?
Until someone needed to speak to the counselor.
You don't speak to the councilor
you fight him
It sounds like it wouldn't be very effective, but he manages to make it quite therapeutic
"We will do glorious battle with your issues and insecurities! Today is a good day to cry!"
I really want this line in Lower Decks. It would fit right in.
Imagine if we used EMH tech to put him on every ship- THAT would improve the fleet unquestionably.
That would achieve the unheard-of 100% fleetwide efficiency. Not even the Q Continuum could stop Starfleet
"To boldy go where no Holo-O'brien has gone before."
That's it, I want a klingon counselor on lower decks.
Honor to your union
I wish there was a series with Colm as Captain O'Brien! But he was in Star Trek from the TNG pilot up to the DS9 finale, I imagine he was sick of it once that finished up.
In order for O'Brien to become a Captain he would have had to become a commissioned officer instead of an enlistedman, and you just know he'd never do that.
Doesn’t have to be Federation. He could be a captain of his own ship.
It'd mean having to dress up on those awful formal uniforms.
Who's the transporter chief?
Surely Garak should be included as the ship's tailor
I don’t know if he can trust Bashir, he lost William B Travis.
I'd take the EMH over Bashir any day of the week.
They should have stuck with the Bashir model, genetic engineering or no.
