The USS Cerritos’ visiting Vulcan science officer, T’Lyn, takes center stage in the latest episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks. The fourth season reaches its halfway point with its fifth episode, “Empathological Fallacies.” The episode has the Cerritos fall into complete chaos, leaving the emotionally stoic T’Lyn as the starship’s best hope to restore order before it’s too late. With a concentrated dose of unbridled mayhem, the episode runs dangerously close to running entirely off the rails — but manages to stick the landing.The Cerritos is tasked with escorting a trio of Betazoid diplomats to the paradise planet of Risa, with the Betazoids eager to turn their voyage into an uninhibited pleasure cruise at the Starfleet crew’s expense. Meanwhile, T’Lyn grows frustrated and restless with her assignment on the Cerritos, exacerbated by the Betazoid parties and a temporary communication blackout on the starship. This all coincides with the prolonged partying beginning to cause the crew’s emotions to grow uncontrollably. T’Lyn suspects a telepathic cause to the degenerating conditions around the ship and scrambles to save her colleagues.Ever since her introduction in Lower Decks Season 2, T’Lyn has become a fan-favorite character and a steady presence in the animated series’ fourth season. “Empathological Fallacies” makes the best use of the character to date, with voice actor Gabrielle Ruiz capturing all the subtle complexities beneath T’Lyn’s unwavering outward demeanor. Given all the malarkey escalating around the Cerritos, T’Lyn’s seemingly calm and understated presence is the perfect counterbalance to keep the surrounding action from becoming unbearable.RELATED: Star Trek: Lower Decks Animator Reveals the Cartoon’s Sitcom Influences
