Notes

  • The character of Po (full name ‘Me Hani Ika Hali Ka Po’) is played by Yadira Guevara-Prip.  The character had previously appeared in the Short Treks episode “Runaway“.  The short serves as a prequel to these two episodes.
  • The second (of three) appearances by Rebecca Romjin as Una Chin-Riley (on Discovery).
  • The first time we see the inside of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701.  It does not look like the original series Enterprise (due to real world production values), but it is supposed to be the same ship as it exists in the original series.  You’re supposed to just overlook the physical differences.
  • When the Enterprise fires weapons on the Discovery, the sound effects used seem to match the earliest stuff we heard in the original series, which I quite liked.

Control, who is basically taking over everything. To rectify this, they come up with a plan to take Discovery out of the current time. Discovery gets help from a character from one of the Short Treks who otherwise wasn't known. This is a fairly talky ep, but it all works well, a good setup for Pt 2.
