"While undercover in a pre-warp society, Captain Burnham is forced to consider breaking the Prime Directive when a local tradition threatens Tilly’s life. Meanwhile, Culber tries to connect with Stamets, and Adira steps up when Rayner assigns them a position on the bridge." - TrekMovie.com

 
This episode is getting a lot of attention...screenings, etc. Is there a big twist?? We will know soon.

And a Kurtzman interview on RR which was teased to be about Disco and maybe more...


Canadians, is E7 already out there? (rumors...)

I know some things now -- even though I'm not Canadian -- but I'm going to keep quiet. I'm still looking forward to actually getting to see these things unfold.

No one ask me this time, because I won't say a damn thing. :evil:
 
It was more of a Paradise Syndrome remake. Nice planetary environment I guess, but literally nothing interesting or new or surprising in it. Why is this one so special that they had a separate screening event? Lowest point in the season so far :shrug:
 
I enjoyed it, and it structurally felt very TNG in a way I liked a lot.

That being said… I don’t see why this was an episode they decided to give a big red carpet affair, or why TRR is gonna have Alex Kurtzman on. This really wasn’t a special sort of episode, more like a good meat-and-potatoes Star Trek story.
 
Alright down to final four episodes. I have a feeling next week will be a filler episode and then the last three will be them finding the final two pieces.
 
Maybe it's the music, but the race struck me as a particularly sadistic challenge on Survivor.

I do like the new tricorders. Everyone's La Forge now, eh?

In some ways this is my favorite episode of the season thus far. Very reminiscent of some of the better Roddenberry and Berman era stories where our Starfleet heroes have to blend in with a pre-warp humanoid society in order to solve a dilemma and complete an important mission.

This may well be one of my favorite Burnham episodes of the entire series.

Next week is anything but filler if the synopsis posted by a user in the discovery sub-reddit is to be believed.

The Breen pay Federation HQ a visit in the city-ship dreadnought which is 3 times the size of HQ and faces off against the Federation fleet
 
So.... was I the only one who had the wrong episode at first? The Breen one? I... got next weeks episode?
