Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (2022 TV Series) - Season 4 - Episode 3: “Human Best Friend”

Episode 3: “Human Best Friend” shifts tone dramatically, trading horror for a lighter, more comedic shore-leave adventure that still carries emotional weight. The Enterprise crew heads to a pleasure planet for some much-needed rest, but the trip quickly goes sideways when the planet’s atmosphere and environment begin behaving in strange, dangerous ways. What should have been a relaxing escape turns into a surreal, intoxicating, and at times perilous experience.
