I love the honor guard of starships welcoming Discovery back to Federation HQ.
Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 3x13 - "That Hope Is You, Part 2"
- Thread starter Commander Richard

"Let's fly" is a little corny at first but it works as her catchphrase.
So who's thinking the real Cleveland Booker will be showing up next season? I mean you don't just namedrop that story of how Book took his name without following up on it.
Also it seems Vance and the Federation aren't evil after all. Or are they? Will we see Vance capturing Kwejian slaves next season for a fleet of spore drive powered Starfleet ships?
I mean nothing will start off next season like a bang than a Borg assimilation of Kaminar and them gaining the power to cause Burns whenever they want, forcing Starfleet to go back to square one.

The only thing missing from DSC turboshaft shots is Wile E. Coyote holding up a sad sign and plummeting into the distance before you hear a loud, comical thud.
So I still don't quite get what Kovich's role is. He's obviously a lot more mundane than his overly mysterious first appearance indicated. And Mirror Georgiou's departure probably rules out him being Section 31. I mean he has to be Fed president right? And if he is, what's he on the show for? To be kidnapped? There's a reason why Fed presidents never got much screentime in over 50 years of Trek--they're inherently boring characters.
An overall OK episode. They did what I didn't want them to do which is OK. Turbolift apparently has to be that way so it's not longer just a cutesy cutaway. Glad to have the new uniforms, even if the color still bugs the heck out of me.
I feel this is painfully obvious but I agree.
Hiram Roth in TVH got the most "action time" of any Federation President next to Ra-Ghoratreii(sp?) in TUC but yeah, we've seen perhaps a grand total of four Federation Presidents throughout the history of the franchise if you don't count Jonathan Archer who wasn't elected President of the Federation until 23 years after the end of ENT.
BTW, whatever happened to the borg? I mean now that the whole galaxy is interconnected, they should either be everywhere or gone extinct... So I guess it must be the latter. I mean the borg can't just be static and content with staying in one part of the galaxy, they have to assimilate everything they can.
Praying they are extinct. Good riddance to a terrible concept.
I think assimilating a certain mutant Kelpien with the power to disable warp vessels across huge swaths of space would be very high on their priority list. Next season can start with a full scale assimilation of Kaminar, Saru barely escaping and Su'kal assimilated, and now the Borg have the power to disable warp vessels whenever they want. Would put Starfleet back into square one territory, or more like out of the frying pan into the fire.
Didn't the TOS films get away with Captain Spock, Captain Kirk, and Captain Scott all on the same ship?
Except that the Kelpien's (forgot his name) power is not selective, it's either every starship everywhere or none.
LD: “Temporal Edict” showed at the end that at some point in the far future a child Borg drone in in a class. Perhaps Borg changed to be peaceful at some point?

"Captain" is just a rank, it doesn't necessarily mean that you command a starship... Remember that Sisko for a while only had an office at hQ and no starship? Plus we know that a commodore can also captain a starship along with an admiral...
Captain shouldn't just mean "captain of a starship."
I think I remember that. I didn't watch more as Lower Decks got so bad I quit it entirely (the only Trek show I ever did that for). I assume considering there are seemingly no medical advances in 900 years (Detmer) that this can be retconned to being someone with tech implants for medical reasons.
That's hardly been tested. Su'kal's rage level seemingly determines the range or effect. The Borg can use their long distance gateways to send Su'kal to some planet, have him cause a Burn, then bring their cubes out of hiding and assimilate all the crippled worlds.
And thankfully it didn't as early as TSFS with Scotty's rank of Captain of Engineering. Trek got on that issue as far back as 1984.
