  1. “star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you’d explain your situation and they’d be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system’s icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home”

  2. “I’m from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction.” Benjamin Sisko, nodding. “That happened to me once.”

This is something I really appreciate about Star Trek: a combination of trust, competence, and acknowledgement that even the seemingly impossible happens on a regular basis means we, the viewers, are saved from having to trudge through the "I tried reporting this strange thing but everyone blew me off until it was too late" trope. Instead of spending half the episode on trying to convince upper brass to take concerns seriously, everyone jumps straight into action, just in case the worst is actually happening.
