WATCH: The teaser trailer for the upcoming Star Trek: Lower Decks season 3
APRIL 10, 2022 - WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!
“Captain Freeman, you’re under arrest for the destruction of Pakled Planet.”
When last we saw our heroes aboard the USS Cerritos, a cuffed Captain Freeman was being led away by Starfleet Security to face a tribunal. As you might expect, Ensign Beckett Mariner and her friends and colleagues from the lower decks are not going to stand idly by in the face of injustice. In the new teaser for season three of Star Trek: Lower Decks, which dropped over the weekend from Star Trek on Paramount+ on Twitter, we find out what they are planning.

As the scene in the teaser pans around the dark side of a planet, we hear the gang coming together and deciding to “save the day lower decks style,” and the text card announces, “When the stakes are high, they go lower.”
Then we see a bright space dock containing the Cerritos. A shuttlecraft approaches, and the plan is revealed: They’re doing it, they are going to steal the Cerritos.
We’ll see how that plays out when Star Trek: Lower Decks premieres, likely this fall. In the meantime, you can catch up on the first two seasons, streaming now on Paramount+.
