![]() Burnham insists on being the one to take a worker bee to remove it - she has the most experience - even as Rillak questions the captain leaving the ship during a red alert.īurnham runs into a bit of trouble when frozen methane hits the bee and she must eject, then Nalas pulls his phaser on Tilly because he wants to essentially go on a suicide mission to find another way off the station. Adira can reprogram the escape vessel to make a return trip (since it’s meant for one-way), but the door is jammed on the outside debris is blocking it. The only problem? They can’t beam Tilly, Adira, Nalas, and his crew over. Burnham has Discovery‘s shields extended over the station, but it soon becomes a rescue, rather than repair, mission. Soon after Tilly and Adira arrive on Nalas’ ship and begin helping, they’re hit by chunks of frozen methane. It’s Adira’s first away mission, but they’re ready, they assure Burnham (and Ian Alexander’s Gray, who’s looking forward to soon having a body). They grew up using that tech, Tilly says. To help with repairs, Burnham sends Tilly, and off the lieutenant’s suggestion, Adira (Blu del Barrio). Upon Discovery arrives at the station’s location, Nalas informs them that life support is down everywhere except in the main control room. Michael Gibson/ViacomCBS The Hard Choices The captain worries she’s trying to prove herself and wants to be able to tick off that box that says she’s seen action. ![]() To Burnham’s surprise, President Rillak insists on joining the mission. They’re embracing Starfleet’s original mission of scientific exploration once again and have a new space dock.Īlso new: Sylvia Tilly ( Mary Wiseman) is now a lieutenant! But she and Burnham don’t get too much time together as they reflect on the past because the captain is pulled away to be debriefed on Discovery‘s next mission: Commander Nalas (Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll) sending a SOS after his station was affected by some sort of gravitational distortion. President Rillak acknowledges that Discovery is why any of this possible and they can distribute dilithium to distant worlds and have reestablished peaceful relations with planets that have been antagonistic in the past. In this new world, all of you will go where no one has gone before,” she says. You are tomorrow’s ensigns, lieutenants, commanders, and captains. “In this moment, I feel like anything is possible. Starfleet Academy is opening after 125 years, and Burnham has been tasked with introducing the Federation’s president, Rillak (Chelah Horsdal). While he’s in his ship checking it out, the birds start falling against his ship, and a proximity alert sounds before his ship is attacked. But while there, he notices something’s off about the birds flying. With that mission complete, Book heads home to Kwejian to visit his family and for the ceremony as his nephew becomes a man. But it’s too late: “Free the queen!” Burnham blames Book for not having a hologram goldfish for a pet, but he explains he did have one, only “Grudge ate it.” Still, Burnham manages to smooth things over, safely returning to the ship and delivering the dilithium (including some to fix the aliens’ satellite). Due to their strained relationship with the Federation before the Burn, the aliens don’t believe anything’s changed … especially with the misunderstanding over Grudge. “Kobayashi Maru” picks up pretty much right in the middle of the action, with Burnham and Cleveland “Book” Booker ( David Ajala) running into a bit of trouble during a dilithium drop-off. And Discovery is certainly going to need him considering what’s going on. He’s been the father Su’Kal never knew, but now he has other friends and family. Su’Kal (Bill Irwin) can tell Saru misses his Discovery family and tells him he no longer needs to stay for him. They’ve lived in fear in the past, but it’s a new era. Meanwhile, Saru ( Doug Jones) remains home on Kaminar, where, as the Great Elder, he joins the debate about the Federation’s gift of dilithium and how to use it. But even she might have to stop and think before acting after witnessing a shocking event at the end of the Star Trek: Discovery Season 4 premiere. Discovery - she took command at the end of the Season 3 finale, but we only saw her in the chair long enough to say “let’s fly” - but that’s not going to stop her from being the one to volunteer to head straight into danger. Michael Burnham ( Sonequa Martin-Green) may now be captain of the U.S.S.
