Naturally, Burnham has her reservations and quite rightly so. A probe is too small to send in and so Book volunteers his ship. It seems like any hostility towards Burnham from Stamets following his out-of-character panic attack in the Season 3 finale and subsequent Vulcan neck pinch and ejection in an emergency escape field, is water under the bridge. In the Season 1 finale of 'Picard' Jean-Luc was transplanted into a synth made of modern, robust materials (Image credit: Paramount Plus)

A cursory analysis by both Tilly and Stamets indicate that this is a unique, theoretically impossible phenomenon and the only way to collect any useful data is to fly a ship into the accretion cloud caused by the anomaly. Once there, the sheer size of the thing on the viewscreen draws gasps from the bridge crew. It's a nice scene and it reaffirms that everything is hunky-dory with the Kelpien taking over as first office role, not that we expected anything different.Д«urnham gives a motivational speech to the crew over the com, the Discovery goes to black alert, makes that Curly-from-'The-Three-Stooges' sound effect and spore jumps to the edge of the anomaly. In her defense, we were all thinking the same thing. Tilly and Saru have a little catch up as they walk through the corridors of Discovery and she asks if he got taller. However, the thought lingers: was it really necessary to destroy Kwejian so soon to prove the threat was serious? Book is now a primary character on the show and his homeworld is far from the planetary equivalent of a red shirt. Snacking down on a particularly potent edible helps too.

In all fairness, this episode is better the second time you watch it. And throughout the briefing, for the most part, tension is effectively built up as we begin to understand the gravity of the situation. The Starfleet President, Laira Rillak (Chelah Horsdal), gives a stirring speech about how all worlds, Federation and non-Federation alike, must unite. There are so many flamebursts the bridge looks like more like a football stadium before a really big match.

Granted it's only been five months since dilithium was declared safe to use in warp cores once again, but we haven't seen or heard a whisper from Captain Ndoye (Phumzile Sitole) of the United Earth Defense Force since 'Discovery' went full 'Scooby-Doo' in the episode ' People of Earth' last season (S03, E03). It's curious that the United Federation of Planets, and thus Starfleet too, have made no attempt to relocate on Earth. We cut to the briefing room back at Federation HQ. Naturally, Burnham accepts, thus ending Tilly's (Mary Wiseman) time in the role. Turns out he was offered command on the USS Sojourner, but he turned it down so that he could ask Burnham if he could be her First Officer. (Image credit: Paramount Plus)ДЄfter a whole 30 seconds of talking about Book, the conversation becomes more of a catch up, Burnham's recent Deep Space Repair Beta Six experience and Saru's time spent back on Kaminar. Saru (Doug Jones) is an essential member of Discovery's crew and an essential member of the cast. Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) enters and attempts to console him, but he's not interested in company - any sort of company - and it's unlikely that you would be, especially so soon after such a tragedy. Book (David Ajala) has been in semi-permanent trance-like state and remains on the bridge of his ship, running the recordings of the last moments of his time on Kwejian over and over again. We pick up more or less right after last week's disappointing opener, although we learn that a couple of days have actually passed. And in this episode it really doesn't go anywhere at all. Moreover, these are just characters, not entire worlds.ДЄdd all that up and there isn't anywhere interesting for this show to go in the immediate future. The in-season elapsed time was such that the grief wasn't a plot point that would have to be incorporated for the rest of season. I'm not sure which one of these made me bawl my eyes out the most. The Robot in the 'Lost in Space' episode 'Eulogy' (S01, E06). Carson Beckett in the 'Stargate: Atlantis' episode 'Sunday' (S03, E17). Louanne 'Kat' Katraine in the 'Battlestar Galactica' episode 'The Passage' (S03, E10). There are examples of brilliant, even beautifully handled loss in other sci-fi shows. All Federation member and non-member worlds must work together to save the galaxy as we know it.
