Kirk: Spock, this is awkward, but I was wondering. Is your sister seeing anyone?

McCoy: What are you talking about, Jim? Spock doesn’t have a sister.

Kirk: Yes he does. You know...the one who saved all sentient life about 10 years ago?

Spock: Technically, Captain, Dr. McCoy is correct. I do not have a sister.

McCoy: There. You see?

Spock: I have a foster sister.

McCoy (eyeroll): Oh for the love of...(whispers) damned pointed-eared hobgoblin.

Kirk: But is she seeing someone?
Spock - Her mate is Captain 'fights like a Klingon ' Tyler
Kirk - That's alright, l know Kirk Fu
McCoy - Forget it Jim, he'll whip your ass!

Yeah, this right here. No idea what's going to happen but damn I'm pumped to see the 1701 in all its glory.
As am I! I've loved this season more than 1 to begin with, and although some people would have preferred Enterprise not be on this series, they've really done well in having her make an appearance to start, mention her a few times, then work up to this payoff for the finale (and I'm assuming having her go on her second five-year mission under Pike with Spock).

I will say that seeing the bridge and 1701 firing torpedoes (hopefully going medieval on Section 31 ships!) was exciting in and of itself!

The team behind this series, so far, knows how to treat the ship as a character, not a disposable vehicle (I love the Kelvin Universe movies, but the ship doesn't feel like a character like it did in TOS and here).
 
Since people are doing predictions, here is mine:

Discovery is evacuated and ordered to hide somewhere. It would stay hidden for 1000 years until the time of Calypso.

Discovery crew somehow ends up in the future. The signals get send by Michael or Zora to make sure history goes as planned and control gets defeated.

Pike and Spock return to Enterprise, and the 2 part season finale is basically a backdoor pilot for the Pike series, and the reason they increased the number of episodes this season.

I'm not sure how I would feel about a Pike series. Feels like they might take something special (Mount, Peck) and run it into the ground.
 
Before the episode starts: does anyone here think we'll see or hear anything about the Borg?
Nope.

However, Q will pop in to tell Pike, Burnham, and Spock that any rumor they heard about the existence of some species called the Borg is fake news. Then, right before he disappears again, Q will wink at Pike and say "Beep Beep."
 
Enterprise is going to get the crap beat out of her. They'll have to reverse evacuate back to Discovery! And then two Red Angels show up...

Nah - It's going to be a Redbull that shows up, but is mistaken for an angel because:

Are they ever going to address what happened to the Enterprise at the start; with the malfunction that caused all their systems to crash (even though they had transporters and you could clearly see the nacelles were online). Perhaps Control is already in the Enterprise and will attack the Discovery.
 
Perhaps the faith angle comes into it because they have to send Discovery into the future the traditional way - hiding with the sphere data for a thousand years - and they can only hope it's successful in evolving its own AI enough to take care of CONTROL once it's in the right time and place to act on its own. The gamble is that Discovery will evolve into a resistance force that will have the capability to return to their current timeline to save them, too.

So my speculation is: Enterprise swoops in to rescue and evacuate. They can't destroy Discovery so they go to plan B, create a new AI in the ship itself to counter CONTROL. Then it jumps far away and hides somewhere none of them will even know (which is why the option wasn't discussed in the previous episode) and is instructed to wait for the allotted time. Then in the final episode, Enterprise is not doing so well in evading/fighting S31 and CONTROL and just when all hope is lost, Zora/Discovery appears in the present to save them. It has evolved into a caring AI and met up with Doctor Burnham and has integrated the time crystal into the spore drive tech. The crew returns to the ship which is now its own entity and now they are equipped to take out CONTROL once and for all, but it means time jumping? Ehh, i'm not so clear on how they'd end the season, but my guess is a big jump to the future post Nemesis?
