    Overall I enjoyed the episode.
    Though the mechanical engineer in me has one little quibble - The Discovery is NOT the Tardis!! The ship nowhere nearly that huge from the depiction in this episode.

    Shuttle bay's aren't kept pressurized, and plasma exhaust vents are very specifically one way only with the other end leading to plasma.

    Anyone catch Tilly's rank in the final scene? I couldn't get a clear view of her rank pips. Did she get a promotion?

    Given in season 1 - they specifically talked about what happened to the U.S.S. Defiant and referenced the ENT S4 episode "In A Mirror Darkly"; plus the tie back into the mirror universe in this season, Why would you assume the discovery production team in the writers are not aware of the episode "Future Tense" as well?

    I suppose it would. If that were so.

    But I'm ready to see what's next for these characters too.

    my one gripe about the episode: the turbolift corridor. I honestly felt they were trolling the audience with it, by now. if they have this truly VAST amount of pressurized breathable space, why the hell didn't the asphyxiating crew just take an occasional breather in the funhouse while they progress to their goal.

    Yes.
    In that moment...and now...it feels right.

    That bit is a fair complaint.

    As much as I hate Saru not being Captain, I can't see a better end for his character. I want him back, but will kind of hate it if he comes back, but not really.

    The ship porn this season, capped with new uniforms with TNG colors was very fan masturbatory. It's fucking fun. TOS closing theme was a good cap too. The only thing wrong with it is how long it will take until next season.

    Actually it is not. The crew was not in Turbolift alley, they were near the nacelle and in the place where the magnetic thingy was. Vacuum/Atmosphere interface is hard to maintain. The seal between vacuum and atmosphere has to be almost impenetrable by Helium, the smallest stable monatomic gas. People don't just poke in and out of vacuum.

    Life support is just maintaining oxygen, not atmosphere. The Turbolifts had oxygen maintenance, the places where oxygen maintenance were not maintained did not.

    Not true. I’ve actually been quite positive this season

    Loved it. Want to Saru as admiral. But most importantly in the next season I want to see what happened to Romulans, Klingons, Borg, and Dominion. Or what replaced them. Hope we’ll have more series in the 32nd century.

    The magic holodeck bugs me a little. I don't have any big problem with mechanically reading minds, but if that holodeck could do it, then any holodeck should be able to do it.

    That was the best episode of the season.

    I mean, the turboshaft scenes were something right out of an LSD trip and laughably bad, but they got so cheesy that the bad turned into a good bad. Some things in Trek are so absurdly over-the-top that you just roll with it because you know it's not going to make any sense.

    Poor Gene. He will have to clean up that mess when Zareh eventually hits the bottom of the chasm.
    Unless Zareh returns as Zareh the White
