Maybe the best-written, best-paced Star Trek episode I've seen, and I've seen them all. Funny, unpredictable, tense, and even romantic. This was like a 45 minute movie. I was a little skeptical of this series after the pilot, but now I'm sure it's in good hands. Even the gay characters are turning out to be much more than just "Look at us! We're the first gay TV Star Trek characters!" This next episode will be the first episode of anything on TV that I'll really, really be looking forward to since Breaking Bad and Battlestar Galactica both wrapped up years ago. Discovery is now, officially, in my book, special.
