Warning: Spoilers
After Saru's evolution a few episodes ago. It was only a matter of time we returned to his story.

The Red Angel leads Discovery to his home planet, Kaminar. Saru is told by the ship's doctor that his fears are now being repressed.

We see the changes in Saru as he nearly goes toe to toe with Captain Pike.

The Kelpians have been oppressed by the technologically superior Ba'ul in Kaminar.

When Saru returns to his planet, what are the chances that the first Kelpian he meets would be his sister.

The Ba'ul look like some kind of oil slick monster. In a turn of events the Ba'ul were almost driven out of existence by the predatory Kelpian who as they survive Vahar'ai lose their instincts of fear.

I was not surprised that the relationship between Kelpians and Ba'ul would not be as Saru imagined. However I did not find it to be an interesting story. It does lead to questions about the Red Angel. It seems to be acting more as a force for good.
