Captain Picard falls asleep; dreams of some dead people.

I think it's great that every season has its fans - I'm a season three guy, myself.

The Breen might have the ability to destroy the Archive, but with Discovery gone, it wouldn’t gain them anything and how ever long it took them would be time lost for chasing Discovery.

That's a hell of a gamble if your objective is to protect civilians (and likely a gamble they would lose, considering the Breen's actions).

why didn’t Discovery prepare a fake clue?

I think the answer is the same - it's not something you want to screw around with if you're trying to save lives.

Once again, I can confirm that this giveaway is legitimate - good luck!

I thought the "challenge" was a little on the obvious side, but then it's the sort of thing that would be obvious to someone not undergoing it.

Book's reaction to the Kweijian artifact was probably David Ajala's best work on the series so far, really great stuff.

Moll usurped the Primarch perhaps a little too easily, but I like Eve Harlow's performance enough that I really don't care.

Lastly, it's a small thing, but I thought the Badlands looked really great. They finally seem as hellish as they've always been described.

I found it unexpectedly upsetting when the shelving was taking hits from the Breen.

When it's to help someone save face, it's a totally different scenario - everyone knows that!

Vulcans lie all the time.

When Vulcans do it, it's called "hallucinating".

This is the first mention of a sa-te kru on screen, but the cat like predator from Vulcan/Ni’Var originated in a six page comic called “When Worlds Collide: Spock Confronts the Ultimate Challenge” written by Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci, and drawn by Paul Pope that was published in a 2009 issue of “Wired”.

Okay, deep cut to something I didn't know existed...

I'll try to be quicker next time!

I'm seeing speculation all over the map, so I'm going to withhold judgment.

It does sound like they're retaining the Star Trek license in some form - I wonder if that will include ships, and they just can't talk about it yet.

 

LoglineWho knows? They never released one.

Edit: They finally released one - how novel to release the actual episode first!

Captain Freeman assigns the Lower Deckers an overly safe mission to try and keep a self-destructive Mariner out of danger.


Written by: It's a secret (it was Mike McMahan)

Directed by: We're not tellin' (it was Brandon Williams)

 

Today Paramount+ released a set of images for episode 409 but they did not release any other details, not even the title of the episode.

 

LoglineThe Lower Deckers go on a classic cave mission.
