Spoilers Who is the antagonist now?

[Locutus of Bored]

Star Trek: Discovery Episode 10: Revenge of the Shrooms

 

[GeekUSACarl]

Maybe the tardigrade comes back all Rambo style...

 

[Beagleman]

Time displaced Porthos looking for Revenge! (Perhaps he brings the tardigrade with him and perhaps they have some Red Matter...)

 

[galad2003]

Neegan
White Walkers
Thanos

 

[Tosk]

Just had a weird thought. We keep talking about Lorca maybe being a MU version of himself. I don't know what the showrunners have in mind, but consider:

But there is another well known alternate reality out there and Lorca could have come from it. A reality where Starfleet by this point is way more advanced and Section 31 is known to have at least one ship.

Or the first nine eps actually take place in the Kelvin U and only now are they in the Prime U.

Q

If they show Q on STD, bye bye STD. Nothing wrong with John de Lancie, but can we not stick him every Star Trek show. Can't we have a show that stands on it's own? It's not like STD is namedropping any existing STD lore... like Spock or Enterprise.... errr.... what was I saying? Bring on Q

The Borg.

That's self serving, isn't it?

Okay, a Minister?

Mirror Ronald Tracy. F-ing what a badass that guy must be.

In a classic case of literary "protagonist vs. self" conflict, the antagonist of the series will symbolically be the main characters' own hubris.

If Q shows up, he won't be played by the ancient John De Lancie.

 

[Prax]

De Lancie is a stud for a man of his years. Besides the gray hair and beard, he really doesn't look much older than he did at the end of Voyager, and he's such a strong actor, he could probably do almost anything.

However, there's no reason to have Q on Discovery. I think it would hurt the show, and retroactively hurt/diminish the character in TNG/VOY.

Verdict: Q-less is more

Will he learn from his mistake?
