Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 1x14 - "The War Without, The War Within"

[CorporalClegg]

No crew members on the ship save for Saru, Burnham, Tyler abd who ever was in the transporter room know the truth.

It’s a cover.

And the brass and council members who authorized the sortie.

 

[Tuskin38]

The preview clip shows her having an inappropriate (and silly) conversation with the crew that looks like she's quite in command.

Well obviously she would need to play the part, just like how Lorca did

 

[thribs]

I wish they stopped overusing the transporters. Ship-to-ship beaming is supposed to be very risky. They could have just escorted the Emperor to her quarters.
Also, where did Sarek beam to? Weren’t they at warp?

 

[Tuskin38]

And the brass and council members who authorized the sortie.

I said crew

 

[cooleddie74]

He could end up as the head of Starfleet. Aim high, Klingon spy!

Hell, Arne Darvin infiltrated the highest levels of a major Federation space station for who knows how many months or years before being discovered. Worse has happened.

Or...in this case...will.

I’m guessing the incident with Tyler will make them change their mind about overwriting the brain and just teach them to be human.

 

[thribs]

Tribbles should be mandatory for all ships for that very situation.

 

[cooleddie74]

Or just recruit Augment Klingons or perform cosmetic surgery.

 

[CorporalClegg]

I said crew

But your implication is her position and commission aren't officially sanctioned. Whether or not the crew knows all the classified details is irrelevant. For all we know, it was the President who authorized it.

 

[cooleddie74]

The Federation Council agreed to the plan, and we know the President of the Federation presides over meetings of the Council. If they acquiesced to Cornwell's and Burnham's plan then the President likely signed off on it and could have given permission for the change in command.

 

[MarsWeeps]

I guess considering they gave MU Georgiou a fucking command .

I'm pretty sure that was just for show, to screw with the Klingons as well as using her battle tactics.

Agreed, she is supposed to be arrested and exiled into the Federation's equivalent of Guantanamo, for all the atrocities and genocide she caused as Emperor of the Terran Empire.

Irrelevant since it was a different universe. I don't think they could apply Federation laws to what happened in the MU.

 

[Kane_Steel]

Tyler doesn't have a vagina, so he won't get promoted up in this verse. Or maybe he does have one. Who knows.

I'm blown away that the navigator girl actually looked like she believed Cornwell's BS story about Captain Georgiou surviving. I don't know her name. The one that looks like Baby Stewie,

 

[Captain Killy]

Consultant perhaps but not captain. That seems too much.

It was, I assume, one of the conditions of her help.

 

[Shon T'Hara]

Well, Harry Knowles still needs hair dye for his beard. That stuff ain't free.

Last I heard, he's not with the site anymore. He got forced out after several women accused him of sexual assault and several of his longtime writers quit.

 

[MarsWeeps]

I just wonder what role the spore thing that entered Tilly in a previous episode will play. Will we see it play out in the finale or are they setting up something for season 2?

IIRC it was stated on After Trek that it won't be addressed till Season 2.

 

[Captain Killy]

Agreed, she is supposed to be arrested and exiled into the Federation's equivalent of Guantanamo, for all the atrocities and genocide she caused as Emperor of the Terran Empire.

However, this is Discovery-verse, not the logical Trek verse, so it is what it is ...

She can’t be arrested as she’s committed no crimes (yet) against the Federation. You can’t arrest her for being the ruler of an Imperial start in an alternate reality.

 

[Agony_Boothb]

Or just recruit Augment Klingons or perform cosmetic surgery.

I wonder if there is like the klingon version of Thailand, where people can go and get species reassignment surgery really cheap

 

[cooleddie74]

Dr. Ni'q.

"Hi, everybody!"

"QAP'LA, DR. NI'Q!!!"

 

[SolarisOne]

Irrelevant since it was a different universe. I don't think they could apply Federation laws to what happened in the MU.

She can’t be arrested as she’s committed no crimes (yet) against the Federation. You can’t arrest her for being the ruler of an Imperial start in an alternate reality.

The Federation wouldn't do something like that. Every other major power I know of in the Prime universe's alpha and beta quadrants would shove her in a deep, dark hole (or outright kill her) without hesitation.
