    Mirror version, so she's going to be smart, calculated and competent. ;)

    Also, how does Lorca feel knowing that he bedded the same person in TWO different universes? lol.

    There's a good chance Lorca bedded 2 different Cornwall's as well.

    But this is discussion more worthy of an HBO show. ;)

    It also could mean that the Emperor that Kirk is trying to gain the seat of might very well be Lorca, with Spock coming in behind to reform the Empire.

    A lot has been already said about Lorca being from the mirror universe not being a such a great plot development.

    Now, to me he was a villain (if understandable and somewhat relatable one) when I assumed he was from the regular universe, but I can buy him as a hero in the mirror universe. I really hope he is not just a selfish power hungry bad guy, it would completely undermine everything that was cool about the character. I wish his whole ludicrous plan is for some noble purpose (at least by the mirror universe standards.)

    "Hmm, let's see what my counterpart got up to... computer, play Lorca personal logs..."

    *Some time into log playback*

    "Reaaallllyy?!" Raises eyebrow and possibly other parts of anatomy

    Newly fixed Ash is gonna stay in the MU to help his buddy Lorca. Tearful buhbye to Burnham, who goes home to win the war. He will be holding a phaser rifle, and him and Lorca will be playing their video games for real...

    My friend, we are going to see a Connie. Possibly VERY soon...

    From what I've been told, Pike's 1701 shows up in the season finale.

    Personally I do. I think we will see it in the series finale. I can think of no other reason why they tinkered with the design. There is little point in changing the design just for a computer screen.

    Just what I've heard through the grape vine. Before Discovery aired, I could say things with 100% confidence because I had seen them with my own eyes. With this prediction, I put 70-80% chance of it being true.

    I just don't see any story reason for that ship to show up though. Plus it would inevitably cause a huge shitstorm if they mess around with the designs and recast Nimoy. Seems too risky right now to me.

    Just use Quinto and a distant out of focus shot of the ship.;)

    No thanks to either. Would still create a shitstorm....and what's the point in having the ship if you hardly show it? Defeats the purpose, no?

    Last I heard, and mind you, this was a long time ago, the Enterprise shows up to save Discovery out of some unwinnable situation. As for the story reason...Spin-off series. :) You think CBS wants to give up all of that All Access subscription base while Discovery is a year between seasons? That's alot of money to leave on the table. They need something else to hold onto the Trek fans.

    Well, no offense, but I think someone has sold you a stinker on this one. I predict this will turn out to be total bollocks. I guess we'll have to wait and see, not least because a "fill in the gaps" spin off would be in production by now.
