Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 3x08 - "The Sanctuary"

[Discofan]

Whatever happened to the Suliban?

 

[cooleddie74]

I imagine the defeat of the Cabal and the end of the Temporal Cold War freed the Suliban who weren't members of the Cabal to reassume control over their society so by the time of TOS and beyond the Suliban could be a stable and even thriving civilization. We never hear from them again in canon after 2154 but I imagine they're still around in one form or another in later centuries.

So Tilly has gone to a promising scientist to a Yeoman. Good for her.

So she's number one but Saru treats her like number two...

 

[RAMA]

Discovery is #1 in the UK today, # 5 in the world

 

[Discofan]

Looks like these people don't need to worry about where their next meal is coming from...

This is the slowest failure and cancellation I've ever seen. Man, the critics must be right but REALLY prolonged about it.

I just kept expecting Osyraa to cackle “I’ll get you my pretty!”

No little dog though...

No little dog though...

There is a big cat though.

When people say language evolves, this is what they're talking about.

(As opposed to, say, an excuse to use literally and figuratively interchangeably. )

Once upon a time, literally meant in words, not in reality.

Georgiou: "Shall I compare thee to a horse's ass..."

 

[Noname Given]

Except on Vulcan.

That's Ni'var to you.

Seems she's doing the work of an Exec per wiki

The executive officer is the billet of the officer who is second-in-command. An XO is assigned to all ships, aviation squadrons, and shore units and installations, and is responsible to the captain for all ship’s work, drills, exercises, personnel organization, and the policing and inspection of the ship.

7. Ugh. Bait and switch. We know where the Burn started . . . but we're passing time with this episode instead.

It was an ok episode with some decent action. But it was mostly a filler.

 

[Mr Awe]

Shhh, they’re running out of dilithium. But isn’t everyone running out of dilithium?

That was my reaction. Of course, they're running out of dilithium!

 

[Discofan]

That's Ni'var to you.

That's last week's planet.

 

[Discofan]

That was my reaction. Of course, they're running out of dilithium!

But that's a secret and now two people know it!

 

[Nerys Myk]

That was my reaction. Of course, they're running out of dilithium!

I took the meaning to be their supply of dilithium is running out.

 

[Lord Garth]

This episode wasn't filler in the sense that it was just there to take up time. DSC Season 3 looks like it's episodic with an overall season arc. It's not a 10-hour movie like the first season of Picard or as closely interconnected as the first two seasons of Discovery were.

After this episode, I feel like I know Book and Georgiou a lot better. There are less blanks I need to fill in now.
