Trek: DSC: But to Connect

[dewline]

Done watching "...But to Connect" on Star Trek: Discovery.

That wasn't exactly a bottle show. Close, but not exactly so. There was still a sense of grand scale, scope, stakes on multiple fronts, and events moving at speed. Everyone being true to themselves...and I think this chapter worked. My thanks to the performers and production team!

I was impressed. I liked the Stamets/Culber/Grey/Adira/Zora/David Cronenberg plot much more than the negotiations (Disco needs to work on how to do institutional politics—the Expanse does that much better) but both worked. And I am impressed that they had an Actual Conflict where both sides had a good point and were sympathetic. It was a bit manufactured (as someone on io9 pointed out, the discussion shouldn't have been which strategy to do, but which strategy to do first) but I'm actually on the edge of my seat for the next episode.
