The Sahil strikes back

Sahil will be OK, turns out he's one of them, sentient holograms, he'll live forever! Just like the doctor.

Oh that was neat thanks for posting that.

Hey I wonder if that story is true that he just walks on set and they don't give him a costume or anything.

I love how Cronenbergs response to why he got a part on Discovery is because he is cheap and available.
