They're also susceptible to angry tardigrades.
Dear Discovery: if you want to go the whole tragic route with silent credits at the shock of offing a regular character... you really need the character to have *been* a character previously, and not just a heavily made-up background extra who essentially is suddenly this week's guest star.
Apart from that- good direction from Frakes, good Spock/Michael scenes, somebody finally remembered that Michael started the Klingon war. It was mind-bogglingly obvious as soon as it was mentioned that Section 31's Control was a system rather than a person or organisation, that it had gone full Skynet.
It seems equally obvious from Airiam's line "it's all about you, Michael" that yep, Michael's going to be the Red Angel...
If I was Pike, I'd be beaming fuckloads of anitmateer and torpedoes into Control right now. And putting a phaser beam through the Airiam's corpse instead of recovering it for a funeral. Just in case.

I can't believe the entire episode was only two takes. How does Frakes do it?
MAKE VULCAN LOGICAL AGAIN
And was it just me, or did one of the frozen Andorian's antennae snap off when gravity was restored and all the dead bodies fell to the deckplating?
Where is Control though? Surely not just in S31 HQ. Control will have plenty of backups.
Unless its V'Ger, in which case everything was concentrated in one memory core as per Spock's theory about the location of such a complex aboard the V'Ger vessel.
Have a cast member punch a staffer then fuck off to Amazon?
Of course. That’s where the transceivers are hidden.
I seem to have miscalculated.
Can't hurt anyway
It would have made for a lovely explosion.
Was Burnham aware that:
- Nan's apparatus had been torn out?
and
- Nan needed said apparatus to breathe?
We always assume a character sees everythiong/knows all about other species but perhaps Burnham didn't realize Nan's dire situation.
And as TNG showed Klingons can be incapacitated by ANY random alien that beams on to the ship.
A minor distraction.

TNG also showed us a rag-tag team of Ferengi misfits who took over two Klingon ships AND the Enterprise-D. Anything can happen if you don't ask too many questions, lol.
