On the plus side, this week's episode referenced Spot, had an old-school Bird of Prey, and Romulan Warrior Nuns. On the negative, this was our first episode without Laris and Zhaban, so I have to mark it down for that...
A bit of a step down from last week, but still excellent. I am a little worried that with all the pieces being put into play that the show will struggle to come up with a satisfying resolution for everything; that has, after all, been Discovery's constant weak spot.
Well, that was very impressive. I don't like to get my hopes up, but if they can maintain that level of quality, this will be more than worthy as a continuation of Picard's story and the TNG universe.
