Trivia
Jett Reno declares to Dr. Hugh Culber "I'm an engineer not a poet", which is an homage to Dr McCoy's "I'm a Doctor not a ______ (fill in the blank)" KB351.

Goofs
The party that boards the Section 31 ship seems surprised that Control becomes aware of their presence. Control is an advanced AI that is capable of completely overtaking a ship's systems, including basic functions like sensors. It would of course detect three people beaming aboard, the way any starship's sensors would.

Quotes
Time Keeper Tenavik: The present is a veil between anticipation and horror. Lift the veil, and madness may follow.

Is it getting better?

It seems so, that it's getting better and better, i would never thought i would give an 8 out of ten to a STD episode, but for the last 2-3 episodes it is getting better and better. No more 100s plots to follow... nor excessive drama, and fantasy/stupid tech, though it is not perfect, but i got many hopes now on ;) (just remove this fantasy/magic mushroom spore drive at least, so yes destroy the Discovery)

Finally i can enjoy the main story without being lost by crossed plots.

I like captain Pike a lot, he is what he should be in my old memories of the TOS, after all he is the mentor of captain Kirk, and they translate his character very well about who truly is Pike (the actor is good too), so on this one a big thumb up and big Bravo!!

So, if I they continue this path a 10 out of 10 would be my next rating as it's NOW quite good and a bit more "coherent". Just ask some help to the science community to adjust the "tech" and you would become more science fiction instead of fantasy fiction.

So over all I would say continue this path and you are all good ;)
