The crew is back!
In this episode we get some much needed focus on the Discovery crew. Tig Notaro as Reno is still with us thankfully with her own brand of comedy; and her verbal judo with Stamets has been missed. Great dialogue.
Then we have Saru and Tilly bonding during a mission that goes sideways. The dialogue between them, not to mention some other memorable/quotable moments in this episode goes to prove that the writing is doing just fine despite some misguided attempts to say otherwise. And is admittedly looking better than previous seasons.
The theme of Saru and Tilly's mission is definitely western frontier. And it fits in perfectly in the setting they're in. Guest star Jake Weber playing Zareh was a perfect cast for the villain.
We also get to see the amazing skills of Michelle Yeoh.
