I’m pretty sure Archer and Charlie met before.

No, just the same one in a loop.

I’ll just head canon that Amanda got stuck in the past, ended up pregnant and had to rescue one of her children from extra-dimensional aliens.

And secretly Amanda Grayson is fighting one of them.

Braxton might have a stroke from this.

Casually breaking the Temporal Prime Directive again?

“The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning” is an alternate version.

EDIT: The tracks on the single for “The End Is the Beginning Is the End” are all alternate versions.

The Smashing Pumpkins- “1979” and “Perfect”.

People said “Perfect” sounded so much like “1979” that the music video was intentionally made to be a sequel to the latter.

EDIT: The Smashing Pumpkins are my favorite band. If you can find a copy of Greatest Hits Video Collection (1991–2000) (a DVD collection of music videos and other goodies; acted as a companion to Rotten Apples), I recommend it. There is extensive audio commentary on the videos. For example, Stéphane Sednaoui who directed “Today”, claimed to had never listen to the song before the first day of filming. “1979” in particular had master tapes got destroyed after someone left them on the roof of their car, so the entire video had to be re-shot. “Perfect” commentary, Corgan makes the connection to the similarities with “1979”; all but one of the original teenage actors from the first video returned. There is a short film version of “Try” that featured a different ending to “Try, Try, Try”. A few live recordings are included, among them “Fuck You (An Ode to No One)” from the final Metro show when they broke up and “Geek USA” (a special mix that utilized maximum volume on the audio system).

“Tomorrow is Yesterday” predicted Apollo 11. The episode was aired in ‘67. The episode which involves time travel mentioned a shuttle launch happening on a Wednesday in July of 1969. July 16 was the actual date of the real Apollo 11 launch, and that was a Wednesday.

So for those unaware, René Auberjonois filmed scenes as a Starfleet officer named West (who had an odd rank of Colonel). At the end of the movie it is revealed that West, disguised as a Klingon, had attempted to assassinate the Federation president. If you have no memory of this, then no worry. You’ve only seen the theatrical version. All the scenes which René appears were not included.

According to Memory Alpha, prior to 2009, the home media releases included the West scenes but did not list Colonel West or René Auberjonois in the credits. 2009 is when the first DVD release came out, being the theatrical cut. The page for West indicates the 4K remaster, released in 2022, includes West scenes but omitting the reveal of the assassin’s identity.

With multiple edits of The Undiscovered Country existing, what is considered the canonical version?

 

Wish I was wrong.
