^ Ah, interesting. I wondered how they would number the decks on the Shenzhou, considering the location of the bridge. Something like Deck A, Deck B, etc. could have worked, too, with Deck A being the bridge.

 

[Tuskin38]

Hm, I can't see where decks 8-10 would fit.

Proof that there's only one vineyard in the future.

 

[Jackson_Roykirk]

There it is.

Damn....It's on the same time as "Touched by Columbo".

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Note that there are football games in the afternoon. There could potentially be a delay in the premier.

Oh, God - that's beautiful

 

[Tuskin38]

The Shenzhou and what looks like two other starfleet ships, maybe three.

 

[Michael]

Is that the Shenzhou upside down or a new ship? Looks different to me. In the background we are seeing Discovery, I think. Definitely looks like the Shenzhou won't be destroyed or anything.

Also, why is Michael fighting a Vulcan?

 

[Tuskin38]

I'm thinking Hand-to-hand training.

That might not be the shenzhou, some of the detailing is off. The nacelles are not the right shape.

It took me a minute when I first saw it but yeah, it's the Shenzhou upside down. I love that they're at least not sticking with the "ships must always approach each other on the same plane, dorsal side up, nose to nose" trope.

Also, why is Michael fighting a Vulcan?

She's not in her Starfleet uniform there, so I assume it's Vulcan martial arts training.

 

[Kenobiwan85]

I'm pretty sure she is in her Starfleet uniform, but I don't think she has her badge on.

 

[The Librarian]

No, that's definitely the uniform based on the silver stripes and side panels. It just looks a lot lighter because of the lighting. It's probably training, we know Vulcans have their own martial arts styles.
