Christos and Kristin kick off a brand-new “Murder She Wrote” series with a deep dive into Star Trek: The Next Generation’s “Suspicions” (Season 6, Episode 22).
In this character-driven mystery, Dr. Beverly Crusher steps out of her role as Chief Medical Officer, breaking Starfleet rules to solve the death of a Ferengi scientist. We explore Beverly as a rebel, scientist, and advocate for life, examine her dynamic with Nurse Ogawa, and discuss the ethical conflict between her Hippocratic Oath and Starfleet’s Prime Directive.The episode also presents a classic whodunit with a fascinating cast of characters, and we break down key moments, continuity connections, and Crusher’s evolving role in the Star Trek universe. Was Beverly ahead of her time, or unfairly judged? Beam aboard for all this and more!
