Character work and banter, so far, are not the strengths of this fan series (owing to the limitations of the actors involved), so I don\u2019t love this episode. It\u2019s charming enough, considering it doesn\u2019t take much time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m cheating and looking up Lt.
