...It's a bit annoying how we get introduced to these things through Michael "My Character Is Different Every Day" Burnham, who for whatever reason decides to play cool that particular day. I mean, it was Pike's gig to swallow three impossible things before breakfast without letting his smile waver, but Pike is gone now. Why can't Burnham or Saru show actual excitement or revulsion or whatever about these fantastic revelations?
Well, Saru does, in his subdued manner, and all credit to Jones for that. But emoting is SMG:s very gig, and usually Burnham's, too. Would she go all Vulcan when learning the truth about Romulans, too? (I think she should go Old Vulcan there instead.)
