UrsusArctos: 'QAPLA!!! Sandalphon looks like a Klingon Bird of Prey approaching in this shot. Gaghiel's design seemed to take after the Romulan Warbird and the Enterprise-D is referred to on one of the crates in Episode 05, so I suspect that the Star Trek reference was entirely intentional for our beloved Anomalocaris wannabe. To be, or not to be, as the late Christopher Plummer would've said!
