    Remember when Jellico commanded the Dauntless to fire a torpedo into the Neutral Zone because he didn't want to upset the Romulans during sensitive negotiations by simply having the ship go in itself?

    Jellico might not be a badmiral but he's certainly a bad-at-his-jobmiral, and he was a crap-at-his-jobtain as well.

      Certainly made some questionable choices in the name of potential peace with the Romulans. Wouldn't say any of it was with malice, but he could have played it smarter.

    Wait Wait Wait, where is sisko/Kira in all this?

    Kira pushed a four shift rotation to Sisko while he was delirious with a massive head injury. Later he suggested the idea as well and Kira was so happy he wasn't dead/ agreed that she just took joy in agreeing with his "suggestion"

    That was a clear callback to jellico in my opinion.

      Good catch. However, Colonel Kira is only Federation adjacent and Sisko joined the Prophets as a captain. Admirals club only, and since this particular meme takes place late 24th Century, Admiral Picard had already "retired."
