I thought that the twist to Burnham’s mindscape challenge would have been that she needed to empathize with others, and thus take a look at what Book was reading the whole damn time.

It is the 31st Millennium. For centuries the L’ak Emperor of Breenkind has sat immobile on the silver throne. He is master of Breenkind by the will of of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of His inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the progenitor age of technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the vast Imperium of Breen for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day so that he may never truly die…

Better safe than sorry. People might have been surprised that the voyage home on the Klingon ship following the Search for Spock would have included whales.

Ah yes, a War in the Stars. My favorite Star related story outside of a Gate in the Stars or The Star of Galactic Battle.

The beginning and last line of Dr. Culber’s conversation with his grandmother recreation felt a bit stilted, as if he wasn’t fluent, which was strange because the middle part of the conversation had a goof flow to it. It made me wonder if there was some failure in directing or if Wilson Cruz is just not that fluent in Spanish compared to the actress for the grandmother, which is understandable and I’m not knocking him for it.
Anyway, I quite liked this episode. Very classic “planet of the week” Star Trek deal that I’m always down for. Break that prime directive. Save those natives from themselves. You can splurge on a plot or two of those. We’ve seen it before, we’ve seen it again. It had a solution more rooted in a character moment rather than Treknobabble which I appreciated. Thumbs up for Tilly’s endurance, they made that whole run not look easy.
I can’t help but think them teleporting to Moll and L’ak with the fresh new clue would essentially play right into their own hands.

Was I the only one who was expecting a remix of the Discovery theme to the tune of the Original Series theme? I really misread that title.

I can’t stop thinking about it now.

I would posit that the Solid “face” Breen biology that L’ak is maintaining bleeds, while the transparent gelatinous one doesn’t bleed, making the non-bleeding Breen the social norm.

Maybe the Discovery got contaminated by a nebula or something.

“Who doesn’t?” I mean asking if a Starfleet officer likes starships is kind of like asking of a /c/star_trek browser likes Star Trek.

Same here. I felt that saying that and having it not work before Rayner has his big speech would have been more fulfilling, and it would have tied in with the awkward scene about pretending to still be in a relationship with Booker.

I kept wondering if the song the Dry Dock Worker was listening to was a song we might be familiar with, but I couldn’t identify it because I’m not that into music.

I kept expecting Stamets to use the “You’ve never been in love” cheat phrase from the last groundhog day episode with Michael as proof.

Linus’ scene reminded me of that gag on DBZA about that one guy (Cui) who “reproduced asexually”
- Comment on Who would you rather hang out with: Romulans or Vulcans? 5 weeks ago:
Vulcans. As a non-drinker of alcohol, I don’t care much for ale and I feel more familiar with the Vulcan culture.

For once I’d like for the ominous sounding color label to not be red or black. Let other colors like Mauve or Taupe have its time in the spotlight. I’m sure plenty of people would be afraid of a Mauve Death or a Flaxen alert or an Amaranth level protocol, or an Aegean mission code
