I'm more wondering if the mind controlling pheromone thing from Enterprise is still going to come up.

Random Emerald Chain Goon: Admiral Vance, please don't arrest all of us! We didn't have a choice. We didn't want to become criminals! Osyraa... she used her pheromones on us! Please have mercy! :wah:

Vance: :shrug:

You're really chanelling some ''Orville'' vibe here :guffaw::hugegrin: God, miss the show a lot these days!

By the way. Given how times lined up, it’s seeming likely the Living Witness doc died in the burn.

This was an okay ep but partly seemed repetitive of parts of the premiere and served more to move the story forward than entertain on its own. We’ll see how the thread of Burnham always doing what she feels is right regardless of orders goes. I wonder who will get XO.
 
Discovery upgrades were the best part of the episode. Not much of a plot in this one besides Burnham going back to her roots and disappointing Saru once again. Some nice character moments here and there. Georgiou's issues continue. Is that really her or was she replaced by mystery guy? The overall story seems to be moving along the lines of "the signals" from season 2, which is concerning. Personally, I hope "the burn" is not connected to mama Burnham and Burnham herself, but it probably is.
 
Seriously though, detaching the nacelles and claiming that is more efficient is like saying WiFi is more efficient than a hardwired ethernet connection. The other upgrades were cool but that was just dumb.
For all we know they aren't really detached but actually connected by dark matter (which would be invisible). I mean, they've thrown the term dark matter around loosely enough already, why not? Maybe dark matter is like steel while regular matter is like plastic, so the nacelles are actually more strongly attached than they would have been otherwise.

I guess...but then how does that increase maneuverability and efficiency? I don't know, it just seemed like doing something that looked cool just for the sake of doing something that looked cool.

Voyager moving its nacelles up a little made it more efficient (and less harmful to subspace or w/e), and I guess having free floating nacelles lets you do weird stuff with your warp bubble to improve maneuverability?
 
Detmer: What's a Borg?
Captain Antilles: How could you not know--Oh, your uniform. OK, I'll explain what a Borg is.

Lt. WIlla: We could have used this ship during the Dominion War against the Founders. No need to rely on the Bajoran Wormhole for transport.
Owu: What Dominion War? Who are the Founders? Where's the Bajoran Wormhole?
Lt Willa: Oh, I forgot you're from the 23rd century.. OK, I'll explain what's that all about

:guffaw::hugegrin:
