Burnham and Tilly hunt the killer of a Starfleet officer as Stamets and the science team race against the clock to prevent the anomaly from killing anyone else.

Thanks for starting Chris

I thought it was an ok eppy, was more interested in the 2nd storyline than the main one.

- Really liked that Tily went to Saru for a bit of guidence and that he told Michael to take her on the mission
- Finally some Michael/Tily scenes, although I wanted more
- Liked the scenes with Adira and Grey
- Hugh showing off his Dad skills
- The President of the Federation seems a bit dodgy..
- Good to see Michael's Mum back and scenes with Michael
- Good to see Stamets looking out for Book
- Aww Grey and Hugh hugging..

Once again enjoyed the character scenes better than the main storyline..

I enjoyed this eppy
- N'varr ninjas! :ninja:
- nice to see Michael's mom again
- Michael telling Book that she'd return his ship washed and waxed.
- Saru advocating for Tilly to go on the away mission mentioning her intuitive diplomatic skills would make up for her lack of combat skills.
- Hugh comforting Adira when they're not sure what will happen with Grey
- Paul's " science first, nap later" lind!
- a mind meld. Also that Paul was so protective of Book. Really nice that Book remembering that his nephew looked back gave him some comfort & closrue
- Grey and Hugh hugging was nice. Really glad that Grey has a body now. It will be interesting to find out how his place in the crew going forward.

agree about not caring much for the dma. At least we're getting some character development too.

I don't mind the anomaly stuff even though it's a bit repetitive. Story development is not the strength of the current trek writers tbh. But the character development is well written.

Finally getting to watch these episodes!

Poor Book so crushed with grief. I'm glad they are making it real, and it doesn't just disappear after an episode or two. Very good story writing.

Great to have Gray become someone who can interact with the whole crew, I look forward to future character arcs with him.

I enjoyed having Michael's mum back. But I can't say I agree with the policy of not punishing a murderer. It didn't seem like she had much of a problem with killing!

this show does a good job with continuity. It's nice to have past events mentioned in the following episodes. Storylines didn't always progress as quickly as I would have liked though.

They do set up storylines well. And I love the character development.
