Episode titles 10 to 15...

11 The Wolf Inside
The Klingon inside.

13 What's Past Is Prologue
Time Travel

15 Will You Take My Hand?
Someone getting married?
 
Past Prologue? Familiar ;)

The Tempest, Act 2, scene 1. "And by that destiny to perform an act / Whereof what’s past is prologue, what to come / In yours and my discharge." In other words, don't worry about what happened in the past, because it was just the preliminaries to the future we can now build. Although stories that quote it or use it as a title often use it to mean that characters' actions in the present are shaped by their past.

The titles to 11 and 14 suggest they might be about whatever's going on with Tyler.
 
I was referring to the fact that Trek has used it before.

Which has happened a lot. Let's see... TOS: "Wink of an Eye" and VGR: "Blink of an Eye"; TAS: "The Eye of the Beholder" and TNG: "Eye of the Beholder"; TAS: "The Survivor" and TNG: "The Survivors"; TNG: "The Emissary" and DS9: "Emissary"; DS9: "The Muse" and VGR: "Muse"; and of course TNG: "First Contact" and Star Trek: First Contact. And that's not counting all the episode titles also used as Trek novel titles, like Metamorphosis, The Siege, Reunion, etc. (plus approximate ones like The Eyes of the Beholders and Survivors).

And while we're pondering title similarities, "The Wolf Inside" seems like a nod to both "Wolf in the Fold" and "The Enemy Within." I guess when you've got 700+ episodes, it's hard to avoid repetition. Though at least Discovery is trying to keep its titles interesting, unlike some Trek series I could mention.
 
"the War Without, the War Within" is the title of a volume Virginia Wolf diaries according to google.
 
A new news article has been published at TrekToday:

CBS released the names of the last six episodes of SeasonOne today. The titles are: Despite Yourself The Wolf Inside Vaulting Ambition...

"Despite yourself the wolf inside vaulting ambition what's past is prologue the war without, the war within will you take my hand?"

So what's the title of the other five episodes? :lol:
 
"Vaulting Ambition" - Wonder if this refers to out of control inner ambition or maybe overcoming ambition from another.

"The War Without, The War Within" -
Again, reference to battling inner demons and attacks from without? I doubt it's a reference to the Klingon conflict.That would seem too on the nose.
