(Burnham is lying on her bed when Tilly enters. The case is still beeping like an unread text message.)
TILLY: Hi. Long night, huh? Everybody's talking about what you did. You helped save many on that colony. Seems like you're gonna have another reputation to get used to. It's probably none of my business, but my mother used to say, er... That's not true. My mother never really said anything to me unless she was criticising my hair. But you... I don't know, I just think if it made its way across the galaxy to find you, you should open it. And you shouldn't be afraid to open it, because I watched you tame the most incredible creature, and, well you're not afraid of anything. That's none of my business, right?
(Tilly leaves. Burnham gets the case out.)

GEORGIOU [hologram]: Hello, Michael. I hope that wherever this finds you, you are well. I imagine you have your own command now. The Captain of your own ship. I have always tried to show you by example. The best way to know yourself is to know others. You are curious, an explorer, so I am leaving you my most beloved possession, handed down through my family for centuries. My hope is that you will use it to continue to investigate the mysteries of the universe, both inside and out, and keep your eyes and heart open always. Goodbye, Michael, and good luck. Know that I am as proud of you as if you were my own daughter. Take good care. But more importantly, take good care of those in your care.

Yay! I won one! And since I'm not really into suspense but I am into the Trek 47 phenomenon, I'll announce my choice with 47 hours and change left.
Our next adventure will be a late season DS9 episode that happens to be one of my favories. So dust off your TR-116, fire up your exographic scanner, and get ready for some crazy aliens... we're doing... FIELD OF FIRE!
