Beyond terrible. And no proper boss, especially not a Starfleet captain would ever behave like this; several scenes were just painful to watch, so awkward.
Only for a few minutes, I thought it could be a fun tribble origin story (however off from established canon)
I'm sorry I watched this.
I'd missed the Short Treks from Netflix, not anymore.
C- for effort compared to the other Short Treks I've watched. But, Murphy's Law at its finest, helped along by a demented and incompetent scientist who decides to prove himself by turning Tribbles into a self replicating food source. This takes place some time before the "Trouble with Tribbles" episode in the original Star Trek and explains how they became prolific breeders. Kinda creepy actually.
While the "Trouble with Tribbles" and the "Trouble with Edward" were meant to be somewhat humorous, this updated version failed in my opinion.
⠀ Annoying music and stupid song again. :(
