Soong expresses the same anguish as Mirror-Kira about the killing of a most special being.

Machines can transmit data easily. It's humans who cannot transmit thoughts and receive them because we dont have a bulit in brain transmitter. There is real world work on neural interface that might lead to sending and receiving information (thoughts, memories). So I find it easy to believe that androids can send and transmit data, or can create a neural interface that allows them to access data. They made a point of saying she somehow picked this up from studying Vulcans. But neural interface could achieve that.
I think the message should be undermined because it's not a good one. So far this show has shown more compassion for machines than living people. I'm really not sure what that message is.
Who even knows at this point? The characters are constantly taking inormation at face value, only for later shocking reveals to undermine what they (and the audience) know, which they also take at face value until it happens again. For all we know, Sutra is also wrong about the meaning of the message and next week it will turn out to have been a recipe for chicken nuggets the whole time.
(I'm not defending fireproof's position here, btw. I just think the show is really fucking dumb and it's not even worth trying to understand any of it.)
Given there are HUNDREDS of Warbirds....and we see lots of flowers...a frenetic battle with little narrative cohesion is to be expected.
That much I do expect.
At least this battle is likely to make more sense than the Section 31 one at the end of Season 2 of DSC. If loud noise and short attention spans had a child together it'd be that episode.
Yeah, considering that DSC has gone out of its way to reference ENT at least twice in Seasons 1 and 2. Maybe we'll get an Arik Soong callback next week.
So if I understand it correctly....
-Maddox goes into hiding after ban
-Somehow gets a hold of Lore
-Reprograms Lore to think he is human that ages and gives him the name A.I.
-Both of them start creating new synths. The first few look more like Data (golden skin, yellow eyes, etc).
-They send out representatives to see if ban is lifted. It doesn't go so well
-They then start creating latest generation of synths that is indistinguishable from humans
-Maddox plants two "sleeper spy" synths within humanity, for reasons..
-Romulans learn of these two spies, somehow and go after them
And this is where first episode of the series starts off
By the way...."synthetic solving a puzzle is worthy of being saved by fifth dimensional being" is to "Warp Capable First Contact"
The analogy makes sense and is flawed at the same time. When the Vulcans landed on Earth, their first thought was probably, "Maybe we ought to raise the bar"....equally so "Sutra getting the subspace codes" was an accident.
I suspect Soji will see her compass and realize that Kestra will die too.

A squadron is what, 5 ships? Let's say even it's 20 ships. It won't matter against 218. But in any case, it doesn't look they will be involved much in the battle that's coming up. Of course they probably cut the trailer in such a way as to hide them. You never know..
Riker will be back next week. That's going to be one of the surprises in the season finale.
Unless they play Beastie Boys.
They'll just jump straight to movies. Star Trek: The Wrath of Sutra
Wouldn't be surprised if Q shows up during the next episode to reveal that what he put Picard through in AGT was to prepare him for the Romulan/Synth/Tkon? crisis...
