Justin Ling has published the full audio and transcript of this intervew here.

You know, though. You know.

On the one hand, I see your point.

On the other hand, yes.

A photo of a smiling, shirtless Wilson Cruz, clearly displaying that he does, in fact, work out.

The performances here were exceptional all around.

Wilson Cruz's Jinaal immediately put me on edge, but he turned out to be a very interesting character. It's a shame we apparently won't get to see Jinaal inhabit Moll or L'ak.

I also came away really impressed with Ian Alexander. I haven't been overly invested in Adira and Gray's story, but this development of them as "two kids who moved to attend different schools" was well-executed, and fairly low-key.

~~Captain~~ Commander Rayner continues to delight, and I'm glad they're allowing him to grow gradually, rather than having him learn his lesson all at once.

I guess we won't be seeing Nilsson again - I hope she's having a good time on Voyager.

 

LoglineOn Trill, Captain Burnham, Book, and Culber must pass a dangerous test to prove themselves worthy of the next clue. Adira reconnects with Gray and Saru’s first day as ambassador is complicated by his engagement to T’Rina.

Looks like we'd better savour it while we can.

If you guessed "painted a director out of a non-vfx shot" was on the list for us today, you were correct. :)

Saru implies to Burnham that she should consider making Book the new first officer on Discovery. Book is not a part of Starfleet or any other similar hierarchical organization. Presumably Saru makes the suggestion so that his own choice of ensign Tilly as his first officer in “Unification III” is no longer the wildest choice of in the history of Starfleet.

On rewatch, I wonder if he was on the way to suggesting someone like Book when he was interrupted. But then again, he's known for his, uh, original thinking when it comes to XOs, as you noted.

”Diary’s Romulan; Federation’s got no claim to it.” it was established in “Unification III” that the Romulans had reunified with the Vulcans at some point during the in the past, and in “All Is Possible” Ni’Var rejoined the Federation.

Ni'Var may or may not be considered the legal successor to the Romulan Free State, which in turn may or may not be considered the legal successor to the Romulan Star Empire. I think "ownership" of these ancient artifacts could be very murky indeed. And no one even mentioned how salvage rights work in the 32nd Century.

Quick, get Alex Kurtzman on the phone so I can pitch Star Trek: Space Maritime Law.

I don't think so - "The Chase" is pretty standalone.

Derp, you are correct. It popped up in my Mastodon feed and I neglected to look at the publication date.

Mellanoid slime worms, such as Murf.

Intriguing...
