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.

What a great way to kick off season 3 of DSC. It was great to see Burnham release 2 years of stress in that shot on the planet. As always Sonequa's acting is superb. And I'm loving the new character Book (and we can't forget to mention Grudge). A fine addition to the Star Trek family. And perhaps the person who stole the show, Adil Hussain. The final few minutes had my eyes tearing up because of the acting of that man. I hope we see more of him in future episodes.
I'm curious to learn more about the Burn as well. What caused it, who caused it? Just need and want more details.

First I have to say Anson Mount was superb as Captain Pike. He plays that character superbly. Having seen him in happier times makes me more sad for what is to hapen to him as seen in TOS.
I loved how he treated the DSC crew knowing what Lorca had done to them in season 1. He took a roll call, trusted in their abilities, treated them with respect. It's just what they needed.
I like the lighter tone now that the war is over. There were more humorous moments and just casual'esque conversation. I'm also enjoying getting to see more of the personalities of the seldom heard from bridge officers. I have a crush on Detmer....
The visual were stunning as always. Very cinematic.
I honestly am so happy a Star Trek show is back on the screen, and that's it's so great!!
