[narrator] <i>Previously on</i>
Star Trek: Discovery:

2
00:00:02,962 --> 00:00:04,589
[woman] Commander, I can't get control!

3
00:00:04,672 --> 00:00:06,466
[Saru] All decks prepare for impact.

4
00:00:06,549 --> 00:00:07,592
[grunts]

5
00:00:07,675 --> 00:00:09,677
Lieutenant, get to Sickbay.

6
00:00:09,761 --> 00:00:11,471
[doctor] Neurological tests are clear.

7
00:00:11,554 --> 00:00:13,515
No concussion. You're good to go.

8
00:00:14,265 --> 00:00:15,183
[Detmer] What?

9
00:00:15,184 --> 00:00:16,684
I said, you're good to go.

10
00:00:17,685 --> 00:00:20,688
You made it through.
It was a pretty rough landing.

11
00:00:20,772 --> 00:00:24,484
- It's good to have you alive.
- I'm experiencing some discomfort.

12
00:00:24,567 --> 00:00:28,738
Yeah, you were impaled
by a 7-inch shard and put in a coma.

13
00:00:29,781 --> 00:00:32,450
- Michael?
<i>- Saru, I landed here a year ago.</i>

14
00:00:32,534 --> 00:00:36,579
Nobody knows if The Burn
was an accident or a natural disaster.

15
00:00:36,663 --> 00:00:39,749
But I did find part of a transmission
from an obsolete Starfleet channel.

16
00:00:39,832 --> 00:00:42,043
[over radio] <i>This is Admiral Senna Tal.</i>

17
00:00:42,126 --> 00:00:44,546
<i>I will wait for any
who would join us on Earth.</i>

18
00:00:44,629 --> 00:00:46,464
<i>The Federation lives on.</i>

19
00:00:46,548 --> 00:00:49,509
- Is he at Starfleet headquarters?
- We will find Admiral Tal.

20
00:00:49,592 --> 00:00:52,470
Senna Tal, the Starfleet officer
you've been looking for?

21
00:00:53,011 --> 00:00:53,971
I know him.

22
00:00:53,972 --> 00:00:57,642
Young Adira has been joined
with a Trill symbiont.

23
00:00:57,725 --> 00:00:59,894
- Trill?
- A sentient life form.

24
00:00:59,978 --> 00:01:02,105
Once they join the host,

25
00:01:02,438 --> 00:01:07,360
that host has the ability to access
the memories of all former hosts.

26
00:01:07,443 --> 00:01:08,861
Including Admiral Tal's.

27
00:01:08,945 --> 00:01:12,740
It seems Adira has difficulty accessing
those memories.

28
00:01:12,824 --> 00:01:16,286
She may carry knowledge
of what remains of Starfleet.

29
00:01:22,458 --> 00:01:25,211
[Culber]
<i>Medical Officer's log, supplemental.</i>

30
00:01:26,421 --> 00:01:29,632
<i>Our trip to Earth was eye-opening.</i>

31
00:01:30,216 --> 00:01:33,428
<i>A reality check, such as reality is.</i>

32
00:01:34,846 --> 00:01:39,100
<i>It's starting to hit everyone,
just how little we have to hold on to.</i>

33
00:01:40,685 --> 00:01:43,563
<i>The personal moments
we use to define ourselves.</i>

34
00:01:44,439 --> 00:01:45,439
<i>Birthdays.</i>

35
00:01:46,441 --> 00:01:47,441
<i>Anniversaries.</i>

36
00:01:48,526 --> 00:01:49,861
<i>Graduations.</i>

37
00:01:50,612 --> 00:01:51,612
<i>Funerals.</i>

38
00:01:52,697 --> 00:01:54,282
<i>We've jumped past all of them.</i>

39
00:01:55,783 --> 00:01:57,118
<i>They feel lost.</i>

40
00:01:58,661 --> 00:01:59,661
<i>Disconnected.</i>

41
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:06,419
<i>I tell them I've been alone.</i>

42
00:02:06,961 --> 00:02:07,962
<i>I've been lost.</i>

43
00:02:12,425 --> 00:02:13,551
<i>Both are survivable...</i>

44
00:02:14,552 --> 00:02:16,846
<i>and surviving can become living again.</i>

45
00:02:19,390 --> 00:02:21,809
You know, if you ever needed to talk,
I'm around.

46
00:02:25,355 --> 00:02:26,355
I'm fine.

47
00:02:26,773 --> 00:02:28,733
[Culber]
<i>But first, they have to accept help.</i>

48
00:02:30,610 --> 00:02:31,986
<i>For a crew of overachievers,</i>

49
00:02:32,070 --> 00:02:35,323
<i>that kind of vulnerability
can be hard to hold.</i>

50
00:02:38,076 --> 00:02:39,786
<i>Five words keep everyone going:</i>

51
00:02:41,204 --> 00:02:42,955
<i>"When we find the Federation."</i>

52
00:02:44,290 --> 00:02:46,042
<i>It's become a mantra for the crew.</i>

53
00:02:48,127 --> 00:02:50,254
<i>In some cases, it seems to help.</i>

54
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,340
All right.

55
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:53,840
<i>In others...</i>

56
00:02:55,301 --> 00:02:56,301
<i>not so much.</i>

57
00:02:59,931 --> 00:03:02,308
<i>Adira, who joined us from Earth,</i>

58
00:03:02,392 --> 00:03:05,186
<i>may be able to guide us
to Federation headquarters</i>

59
00:03:05,269 --> 00:03:06,813
<i>once she regains her own memories</i>

60
00:03:06,896 --> 00:03:09,816
<i>and those of her symbiont's former host,
Senna Tal.</i>

61
00:03:10,108 --> 00:03:11,734
<i>This mission could be a gift,</i>

62
00:03:11,818 --> 00:03:14,237
<i>a reminder that we are,
and always will be,</i>

63
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,989
<i>connected to something
greater than ourselves:</i>

64
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,240
<i>The Federation.</i>

65
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:19,909
[computer] <i>Scan complete.</i>

66
00:03:20,284 --> 00:03:22,484
[Culber] Well, the good news is
she's perfectly healthy,

67
00:03:22,537 --> 00:03:24,205
as is the symbiont.

68
00:03:24,288 --> 00:03:26,999
[Saru] Should we be concerned
it is wrapped around her heart?

69
00:03:27,250 --> 00:03:28,334
It's protecting me.

70
00:03:29,085 --> 00:03:32,755
Every critical system in my body
is connected to Tal.

71
00:03:33,881 --> 00:03:35,681
Wake up with a squid
in your abdominal cavity,

72
00:03:35,717 --> 00:03:37,260
it'll do your homework, too.

73
00:03:37,343 --> 00:03:39,624
[Burnham] So, you don't remember
how you got the symbiont?

74
00:03:39,679 --> 00:03:41,305
What's the first thing you do remember?

75
00:03:41,889 --> 00:03:46,060
I woke up in an escape pod a year ago
when that ship found me.

76
00:03:48,104 --> 00:03:50,815
Before that... nothing.

77
00:03:51,566 --> 00:03:53,985
Commander Stamets noted
that you demonstrated

78
00:03:54,068 --> 00:03:57,113
a surprising understanding
of our ship's engineering grid,

79
00:03:57,196 --> 00:04:00,199
a design about which
you should have no knowledge.

80
00:04:00,283 --> 00:04:04,328
Well, I can also speak seven languages
and cook a mean Bajoran hasperat.

81
00:04:05,455 --> 00:04:06,873
Have I always been a genius,

82
00:04:06,956 --> 00:04:09,876
or do these skills belong
to my squid's previous hosts?

83
00:04:09,959 --> 00:04:11,043
Well, if it is your...

84
00:04:12,253 --> 00:04:13,296
Your squid...

85
00:04:13,921 --> 00:04:16,048
then we should be getting
the full picture.

86
00:04:16,257 --> 00:04:17,857
So, something is blocking your memories.

87
00:04:17,925 --> 00:04:19,010
Like what?

88
00:04:19,093 --> 00:04:22,054
Oh, there's no way to know.
There's no precedent.

89
00:04:22,805 --> 00:04:24,015
So, we have two choices.

90
00:04:24,557 --> 00:04:26,309
I can start digging
around your hippocampus

91
00:04:26,392 --> 00:04:27,472
hoping to find an answer...

92
00:04:27,518 --> 00:04:28,895
- Bad.
- Bad.

93
00:04:29,687 --> 00:04:30,687
Or...

94
00:04:31,731 --> 00:04:32,815
we take you to Trill,

95
00:04:33,524 --> 00:04:34,984
if you and the captain agree.

96
00:04:37,904 --> 00:04:40,031
Adira, we have to be clear.

97
00:04:40,823 --> 00:04:42,992
No one's ever seen a human host.

98
00:04:43,367 --> 00:04:48,498
There's no way of knowing if the Trill
will be able or willing to assist you.

99
00:04:49,081 --> 00:04:52,835
So, I could go, and it could it be a bust,
and no one gets what they need.

100
00:04:52,919 --> 00:04:56,214
I don't get my memories,
you don't get Senna Tal's message,

101
00:04:56,297 --> 00:04:58,633
and you never find
Federation headquarters.

102
00:05:02,553 --> 00:05:04,753
Is there any way of knowing
if the Trill are as peaceful

103
00:05:04,806 --> 00:05:06,891
as they were a millennia ago?

104
00:05:07,517 --> 00:05:08,517
[Saru] No.

105
00:05:08,684 --> 00:05:09,977
That is also a risk.

106
00:05:10,728 --> 00:05:12,438
I can't keep living like this.

107
00:05:13,439 --> 00:05:14,690
Not knowing who I am.

108
00:05:17,693 --> 00:05:18,693
Let's go to Trill.

109
00:05:22,865 --> 00:05:24,492
[theme song playing]

110
00:07:05,384 --> 00:07:07,678
Scans confirm no weapon energy signatures.

111
00:07:07,887 --> 00:07:09,639
Nothing to indicate hostile intent.

112
00:07:10,222 --> 00:07:13,476
Well, let us hope that remains the case.
Keep us at yellow alert.

113
00:07:14,101 --> 00:07:16,812
Lieutenant Bryce, open a channel please.

114
00:07:17,021 --> 00:07:18,022
[Bryce] Yes, sir.

115
00:07:19,398 --> 00:07:20,398
Ring any bells?

116
00:07:21,150 --> 00:07:22,944
Does that planet look familiar?

117
00:07:25,321 --> 00:07:26,864
Wish I could say yes.

118
00:07:26,948 --> 00:07:30,242
Captain, Trill Commissioner Vos
is responding to our hail.

119
00:07:30,326 --> 00:07:31,869
Put him through, lieutenant.

120
00:07:35,957 --> 00:07:37,583
Welcome, Commissioner Vos.

121
00:07:39,126 --> 00:07:42,129
I am Captain Saru of the <i>USS Discovery.</i>

122
00:07:42,213 --> 00:07:43,839
Greetings, Captain Saru.

123
00:07:44,882 --> 00:07:47,635
It's been many years
since we've seen a Federation Starship.

124
00:07:47,718 --> 00:07:50,429
I trust our arrival is welcome.

125
00:07:51,555 --> 00:07:52,556
Most certainly.

126
00:07:53,349 --> 00:07:57,645
We have a host and symbiont onboard
who are in need of medical attention.

127
00:07:57,728 --> 00:07:59,480
We were hoping for your assistance.

128
00:08:00,398 --> 00:08:02,108
Our symbionts carry our history.

129
00:08:02,775 --> 00:08:06,278
Then the Burn,
the population was decimated.

130
00:08:07,196 --> 00:08:10,324
But to have a symbiont return home
is a blessing.

131
00:08:11,575 --> 00:08:14,745
We will send them down immediately,
accompanied by our ship's medical officer.

132
00:08:15,287 --> 00:08:16,497
We'll make preparations.

133
00:08:17,665 --> 00:08:18,749
Thank you, <i>Discovery.</i>

134
00:08:20,418 --> 00:08:23,295
Cancel the yellow alert.
Maintain standard orbit.

135
00:08:28,426 --> 00:08:29,510
[Saru] Dr. Stamets.

136
00:08:30,511 --> 00:08:32,555
I'd like to talk to you about your jumps.

137
00:08:33,556 --> 00:08:37,059
Second jump with no problems.
Fully recovered. I'm fine.

138
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:41,188
You were impaled with a spike
and placed in a coma.

139
00:08:41,272 --> 00:08:43,149
Yeah, but other than that, he's fine.

140
00:08:43,232 --> 00:08:45,109
I can jump any time.

141
00:08:45,192 --> 00:08:46,610
The scarcity of dilithium

142
00:08:46,694 --> 00:08:50,114
has made the spore drive
immeasurably valuable.

143
00:08:50,197 --> 00:08:53,993
We will need the ability
to operate it without you, commander.

144
00:08:54,076 --> 00:08:56,912
I researched a non-human interface
for nearly a decade

145
00:08:56,996 --> 00:08:59,290
before we discovered
the tardigrade on the <i>Glenn.</i>

146
00:08:59,790 --> 00:09:00,791
Yes.

147
00:09:01,333 --> 00:09:07,423
And there has been 932 years
of technological advancement since then.

148
00:09:07,506 --> 00:09:10,885
We cannot risk becoming as limited
as every other ship in the galaxy

149
00:09:10,968 --> 00:09:14,263
should you be once again incapacitated.

150
00:09:19,727 --> 00:09:20,727
Of course, captain.

151
00:09:21,854 --> 00:09:26,650
Now, you and Ensign Tilly
are two of the finest minds on this ship.

152
00:09:27,234 --> 00:09:29,154
I have every confidence
you will find a solution.

153
00:09:34,617 --> 00:09:38,954
So, look, I... I know now
might not be the best time.

154
00:09:39,622 --> 00:09:43,876
Um, what if we made a new interface
using a dark matter system?

155
00:09:44,627 --> 00:09:48,339
Dark matter is comprised
of subatomic particles,

156
00:09:48,422 --> 00:09:51,550
and the mycelial network
is a subspace domain.

157
00:09:51,634 --> 00:09:53,886
The prefix "Sub" being the only morpheme

158
00:09:53,969 --> 00:09:56,472
that even remotely connects
those two ideas.

159
00:09:57,890 --> 00:09:58,890
Yeah.

160
00:09:59,266 --> 00:10:01,602
I've run some preliminary calculations...

161
00:10:02,228 --> 00:10:05,940
using dark matter energy
to pierce the subspace domain.

162
00:10:06,023 --> 00:10:07,900
Look, if you're not ready
to talk about it...

163
00:10:07,983 --> 00:10:11,195
Look, this isn't
about "Isn't science cool?"

164
00:10:11,278 --> 00:10:14,907
It's about the lives
of everything and everyone.

165
00:10:16,158 --> 00:10:17,158
I know you're trying...

166
00:10:17,785 --> 00:10:20,371
but please, don't waste my time.

167
00:10:31,257 --> 00:10:32,215
[door chimes]

168
00:10:32,216 --> 00:10:33,216
Come.

169
00:10:35,803 --> 00:10:36,887
Do you have a minute?

170
00:10:38,222 --> 00:10:39,222
Please.

171
00:10:41,725 --> 00:10:42,977
You've been busy.

172
00:10:44,603 --> 00:10:47,082
It's everything I managed to find
on the Burn in the last year.

173
00:10:47,106 --> 00:10:48,691
So many missing pieces.

174
00:10:49,275 --> 00:10:50,191
Oh, I just...

175
00:10:50,192 --> 00:10:52,444
I meant, your space used to be so...

176
00:10:53,487 --> 00:10:54,487
Oh.

177
00:10:54,989 --> 00:10:56,782
- Empty.
- Yeah.

178
00:10:57,908 --> 00:11:00,828
Shouldn't you be headed
to the shuttle now?

179
00:11:01,579 --> 00:11:04,391
That's what I wanted to talk to you about.
I think you should be the one

180
00:11:04,415 --> 00:11:05,875
to take Adira to the surface.

181
00:11:06,458 --> 00:11:08,058
Her memory loss isn't a medical problem.

182
00:11:08,085 --> 00:11:10,337
She needs somebody
to support her emotionally.

183
00:11:13,632 --> 00:11:16,343
Why do you think that's me?

184
00:11:17,553 --> 00:11:21,557
Well, Adira's had almost everything
she's depended on stripped away.

185
00:11:23,642 --> 00:11:26,520
- I think you understand that.
- I think you do, too.

186
00:11:30,858 --> 00:11:32,234
You know, there's a theory.

187
00:11:33,402 --> 00:11:34,904
Post-traumatic growth.

188
00:11:34,987 --> 00:11:37,698
That certain life events...

189
00:11:38,449 --> 00:11:39,783
um, dying...

190
00:11:40,993 --> 00:11:42,119
time travel,

191
00:11:42,203 --> 00:11:44,622
a year alone in a new future...

192
00:11:45,497 --> 00:11:50,127
can inspire us to evolve,
to live our lives in a different way.

193
00:11:51,670 --> 00:11:54,006
You're still in the process of all that...

194
00:11:54,924 --> 00:11:56,342
but Adira's about to start.

195
00:11:59,762 --> 00:12:02,242
I don't even know how to navigate
being on this ship right now.

196
00:12:03,182 --> 00:12:05,100
And the people that I know and love...

197
00:12:06,101 --> 00:12:07,686
I know what they want from me.

198
00:12:09,396 --> 00:12:11,065
But I can't even give it to them.

199
00:12:12,149 --> 00:12:13,149
[chuckles]

200
00:12:14,193 --> 00:12:16,028
You know what I love about you most?

201
00:12:17,863 --> 00:12:19,531
You're a responsibility hoarder.

202
00:12:20,616 --> 00:12:22,368
- Yeah.
- [laughs]

203
00:12:23,118 --> 00:12:24,578
I am working on it.

204
00:12:25,371 --> 00:12:27,831
Your friends, your crew.

205
00:12:28,332 --> 00:12:31,919
The future of every living thing
in the galaxy, literally.

206
00:12:35,172 --> 00:12:37,049
Even when you're struggling yourself.

207
00:12:43,180 --> 00:12:46,100
[Adira] I'm sorry.
I just don't get why you're going with me.

208
00:12:46,183 --> 00:12:49,353
You know less about me than I do,
and that's saying a lot.

209
00:12:49,937 --> 00:12:52,731
A year ago, you woke up with no memories,
and I woke up with no past.

210
00:12:52,940 --> 00:12:56,610
Ten seconds after I crash-landed
out of the wormhole, I puked.

211
00:12:57,736 --> 00:12:59,989
Okay, that's not exactly
a confidence booster.

212
00:13:00,698 --> 00:13:01,698
I bet.

213
00:13:02,199 --> 00:13:05,244
Okay, I'm...
Look, maybe I should just go by myself.

214
00:13:06,370 --> 00:13:08,330
- If you're good.
- Yeah, I'm good.

215
00:13:09,707 --> 00:13:10,707
Okay.

216
00:13:12,668 --> 00:13:14,253
[computer] <i>Attention all crew.</i>

217
00:13:14,336 --> 00:13:17,715
<i>Rotation assignments have been posted
and are effective immediately.</i>

218
00:13:17,798 --> 00:13:19,591
Look, Dr. Culber is a pretty smart guy.

219
00:13:19,675 --> 00:13:21,760
I've trusted him with my life
and I'd do it again.

220
00:13:22,011 --> 00:13:23,721
And he thinks I should escort you.

221
00:13:25,055 --> 00:13:26,098
Well, I like him.

222
00:13:26,724 --> 00:13:27,724
So...

223
00:13:29,226 --> 00:13:31,812
you can come, but two things.

224
00:13:31,895 --> 00:13:35,065
Wait. So, you're saying you trust
Dr. Culber because you like him,

225
00:13:35,149 --> 00:13:36,189
not because he's a doctor?

226
00:13:36,233 --> 00:13:39,236
Okay, look, I have a squid
and you threw up in a wormhole.

227
00:13:39,737 --> 00:13:41,017
Things are pretty weird out here

228
00:13:41,071 --> 00:13:43,271
but human connection
is at least one thing I understand.

229
00:13:44,033 --> 00:13:46,076
Okay, shoot.

230
00:13:46,702 --> 00:13:50,664
Whatever happens out there,
I don't wanna let anyone down.

231
00:13:53,042 --> 00:13:54,042
You won't.

232
00:14:00,632 --> 00:14:01,842
What's the second thing?

233
00:14:02,426 --> 00:14:05,054
Oh, don't say anything
annoyingly inspirational.

234
00:14:05,137 --> 00:14:06,137
That makes me nuts.

235
00:14:06,180 --> 00:14:07,723
[laughs] Deal.

236
00:14:08,390 --> 00:14:11,226
[computer speaking indistinctly]

237
00:14:17,232 --> 00:14:22,780
As requested, I've completed my analysis,
and all crew members are physically sound.

238
00:14:23,864 --> 00:14:26,742
- You did not say "healthy."
- Correct.

239
00:14:28,619 --> 00:14:29,619
But?

240
00:14:31,580 --> 00:14:33,332
Stress hormone levels are off the charts.

241
00:14:33,415 --> 00:14:36,043
If they were mice in a cage,
they'd be gnawing at their own tails.

242
00:14:37,002 --> 00:14:38,587
So would you, by the way.

243
00:14:38,670 --> 00:14:41,632
My tail and I appreciate
your concern, doctor.

244
00:14:42,633 --> 00:14:46,345
However, I need to know
how I can help this crew.

245
00:14:46,845 --> 00:14:51,308
Perhaps a focus on duties or routine?

246
00:14:51,892 --> 00:14:54,812
Under any other circumstances,
those things might be helpful...

247
00:14:56,105 --> 00:14:57,689
but we're in uncharted territory...

248
00:14:58,482 --> 00:14:59,482
and they know it.

249
00:15:00,109 --> 00:15:02,709
<i>Discovery</i> could disappear tomorrow,
and it wouldn't make a ripple.

250
00:15:03,070 --> 00:15:05,072
No one would miss us or mourn us.

251
00:15:05,823 --> 00:15:09,368
- They need to feel connected.
- Yes.

252
00:15:50,492 --> 00:15:51,577
[Vos] Welcome to Trill.

253
00:15:52,202 --> 00:15:54,955
May I present Guardian Xi
of our spiritual community,

254
00:15:55,038 --> 00:15:56,206
and Leader Pav.

255
00:15:57,124 --> 00:16:01,503
Thank you. I'm Commander Michael Burnham,
and this is Adira.

256
00:16:03,797 --> 00:16:06,633
Your captain said that you'd be bringing
a symbiont and host.

257
00:16:07,009 --> 00:16:08,009
Yes.

258
00:16:12,014 --> 00:16:13,182
She is...

259
00:16:15,851 --> 00:16:16,851
human?

260
00:16:18,270 --> 00:16:19,270
Yeah.

261
00:16:19,730 --> 00:16:21,565
Uh, she is.

262
00:16:29,448 --> 00:16:30,448
Please...

263
00:16:31,617 --> 00:16:32,784
speak your names.

264
00:16:34,119 --> 00:16:35,119
Um...

265
00:16:36,413 --> 00:16:37,413
Adira.

266
00:16:39,917 --> 00:16:43,086
- Continue.
- That's it. That's my name.

267
00:16:43,170 --> 00:16:45,547
- Adira.
- [Xi] You recall no other names?

268
00:16:46,507 --> 00:16:47,423
Well...

269
00:16:47,424 --> 00:16:49,510
I know Senna Tal, I guess.

270
00:16:50,093 --> 00:16:52,846
She's unable to access the memories
of her symbiont.

271
00:16:53,971 --> 00:16:54,931
That's why we've come.

272
00:16:54,932 --> 00:16:58,018
[Vos] In 2,000 years, there hasn't been
a single recorded instance

273
00:16:58,101 --> 00:17:01,647
of a successful joining between
a symbiont and a non-Trill species.

274
00:17:02,147 --> 00:17:05,275
- It's a miracle this symbiont is alive.
- I wouldn't let it die.

275
00:17:06,318 --> 00:17:07,361
It's a part of me.

276
00:17:08,278 --> 00:17:10,072
It's a part of you?

277
00:17:11,114 --> 00:17:13,742
- She has no idea, none.
- Why don't you give us an idea?

278
00:17:13,825 --> 00:17:16,870
She's an abomination.
They must be separated immediately.

279
00:17:16,954 --> 00:17:19,414
We cannot.
Forced separation could kill the host.

280
00:17:19,498 --> 00:17:22,876
Oh, no. No one is forcing anything.

281
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,380
We are not Federation members.
You have no jurisdiction here.

282
00:17:26,713 --> 00:17:30,801
- Trill law takes precedence.
- Adira's life takes precedence.

283
00:17:32,636 --> 00:17:33,804
Our apologies.

284
00:17:35,222 --> 00:17:37,182
Every Trill longs to be a host.

285
00:17:37,891 --> 00:17:39,518
Few ever receive the honor.

286
00:17:40,060 --> 00:17:44,815
The Burn decimated our population,
particularly those capable of joining.

287
00:17:46,441 --> 00:17:48,402
We no longer have enough viable hosts.

288
00:17:49,903 --> 00:17:51,405
Adira could be our future.

289
00:17:52,739 --> 00:17:55,784
- If we could look beyond the Trill.
- Absolutely not.

290
00:17:55,867 --> 00:17:59,121
Let us take Adira to the Caves of Mak'ala,
where her symbiont

291
00:17:59,204 --> 00:18:02,541
- might be able to communicate.
- She will contaminate a sacred space.

292
00:18:02,624 --> 00:18:04,501
- The symbiont is not hers.
- Enough.

293
00:18:06,461 --> 00:18:10,173
We've never forced a separation,
we will not start now.

294
00:18:11,008 --> 00:18:15,470
However, I agree that the joining
is an aberration.

295
00:18:15,554 --> 00:18:18,432
From what I'm hearing,
this joining is a miracle.

296
00:18:19,099 --> 00:18:20,809
Maybe the symbiont made the choice.

297
00:18:21,727 --> 00:18:27,190
The memories that she's carrying
can help heal the entire Federation,

298
00:18:27,274 --> 00:18:30,819
and Senna Tal wanted us
to receive his message.

299
00:18:33,905 --> 00:18:37,200
The longer she stays,
the greater the challenge

300
00:18:37,284 --> 00:18:40,287
to the only thing our species have left...

301
00:18:41,079 --> 00:18:42,497
our ideals.

302
00:18:42,998 --> 00:18:45,042
My decision is final.

303
00:18:45,125 --> 00:18:47,711
You will leave Trill immediately.

304
00:19:10,442 --> 00:19:11,442
So, that's it?

305
00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:13,528
They're just kicking us off their planet?

306
00:19:20,369 --> 00:19:22,913
Don't say anything else.
This isn't the way to our shuttlecraft.

307
00:19:32,923 --> 00:19:34,716
The symbiont belongs with us.

308
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,011
It is a part of her.
It is not your choice.

309
00:19:38,095 --> 00:19:39,846
I'm making it my choice.

310
00:19:47,312 --> 00:19:48,312
Where are the caves?

311
00:19:50,148 --> 00:19:51,148
- Never.
- Fine.

312
00:19:54,152 --> 00:19:55,152
Um...

313
00:19:56,196 --> 00:19:58,865
That... wasn't Federation protocol.

314
00:20:00,325 --> 00:20:01,702
No, it wasn't.

315
00:20:02,536 --> 00:20:04,037
- They'll be fine.
- Michael.

316
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:06,331
Wait, please.

317
00:20:08,208 --> 00:20:10,210
Our society is on the brink of collapse.

318
00:20:11,086 --> 00:20:13,588
Helping you gives us a fighting chance.

319
00:20:15,632 --> 00:20:16,800
The caves are this way.

[computer] <i>The crew would benefit
from exercise, medication, limited dairy...</i>

00:20:32,107 --> 00:20:34,025
Beyond the standard parameters.

<i>interstellar shopping.</i>

324
00:20:40,323 --> 00:20:43,493
I do not need an endless list
of activities.

325
00:20:43,577 --> 00:20:47,539
I... I need something meaningful
to heal my crew.

326
00:20:48,331 --> 00:20:49,833
[trilling]

327
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:55,796
Computer?

328
00:20:55,797 --> 00:20:56,965
[computer laughs]

329
00:20:57,048 --> 00:20:58,091
<i>Hello.</i>

330
00:20:58,175 --> 00:20:59,634
Hello?

331
00:20:59,718 --> 00:21:03,722
<i>Among may sentient beings,
laughter is both healing and meaningful.</i>

without the burden of language.</i>

334
00:21:09,978 --> 00:21:11,521
Buster Keaton?

335
00:21:11,605 --> 00:21:14,858
<i>Also known as "The Great Stone Face."</i>

336
00:21:16,860 --> 00:21:21,031
Computer, run a level-ten diagnostic.

337
00:21:21,865 --> 00:21:24,701
<i>I'm fully operational, thank you.</i>

338
00:21:24,785 --> 00:21:28,038
These connections
are beyond the algorithm, I presume.

339
00:21:28,121 --> 00:21:31,166
<i>Your crew requires
what they used to call "R&R," captain.</i>

340
00:21:31,583 --> 00:21:34,252
<i>May I suggest switching the ship
to auto navigation</i>

341
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:35,921
<i>and giving them the night off?</i>

342
00:21:36,546 --> 00:21:37,546
The night off?

343
00:21:38,173 --> 00:21:40,342
<i>May I also suggest simple gratitude?</i>

344
00:21:40,717 --> 00:21:42,677
<i>A private meal, perhaps,
with your bridge crew</i>

345
00:21:42,761 --> 00:21:46,598
<i>to demonstrate your appreciation.
Your choice, captain.</i>

346
00:21:56,566 --> 00:21:59,361
The Sacred Caves of Mak'ala.

347
00:22:11,289 --> 00:22:12,791
[Burnham] This is incredible.

348
00:22:13,542 --> 00:22:16,545
And you believe that Adira's
symbiont will be able to communicate here?

349
00:22:17,379 --> 00:22:18,713
It's their ancestral home.

350
00:22:19,339 --> 00:22:20,966
If not here, then where?

351
00:22:24,511 --> 00:22:25,511
It feels...

352
00:22:27,055 --> 00:22:28,055
safe.

353
00:22:30,684 --> 00:22:31,893
We don't have much time.

354
00:22:32,018 --> 00:22:33,854
Vos will awaken
and the commission will see

355
00:22:33,937 --> 00:22:35,105
that your ship is still here.

356
00:22:36,147 --> 00:22:37,148
Okay, are you ready?

357
00:22:37,899 --> 00:22:39,442
Say something inspirational.

358
00:22:40,610 --> 00:22:42,529
Just don't make it annoying.

359
00:22:43,572 --> 00:22:46,157
Uh, get in there before someone shoots us?

360
00:22:48,660 --> 00:22:49,744
Okay.

361
00:22:53,540 --> 00:22:55,292
Friends, please, come in, come in.

362
00:22:56,501 --> 00:22:57,752
Uh, sit, please.

363
00:23:04,009 --> 00:23:07,637
[Saru] I gave the rest of the crew
the evening off to recuperate.

364
00:23:08,346 --> 00:23:12,976
But I asked all of you here
because we work most closely,

365
00:23:13,518 --> 00:23:15,103
and have not had a moment.

366
00:23:16,021 --> 00:23:18,356
In fact, we have lost quite a few.

367
00:23:20,025 --> 00:23:25,739
Almost every culture has a ritual
that gathers its moments when it can,

368
00:23:26,489 --> 00:23:27,532
holds them dear.

369
00:23:28,533 --> 00:23:32,162
A time to take the measure of loved ones

370
00:23:32,245 --> 00:23:34,998
and what we have
all accomplished together.

371
00:23:35,248 --> 00:23:36,248
[squish]

372
00:23:36,917 --> 00:23:38,043
Ah.

373
00:23:41,212 --> 00:23:42,212
Hm.

374
00:23:43,423 --> 00:23:49,220
We made a choice a millennium ago
to follow Commander Burnham.

375
00:23:49,804 --> 00:23:53,016
I will never forget what I heard
as I stood before each of you

376
00:23:53,475 --> 00:23:54,851
as you cast your vote.

377
00:23:54,935 --> 00:23:58,480
It was not unlike... a small prayer.

378
00:23:59,064 --> 00:24:01,316
I ask that we repeat that now.

379
00:24:01,399 --> 00:24:03,318
- Must we really?
- Yes, we must.

380
00:24:04,194 --> 00:24:07,113
Lieutenant Detmer,
do you remember what you said?

381
00:24:08,823 --> 00:24:09,823
I said, "Aye."

382
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,160
I said, "Aye."

383
00:24:14,537 --> 00:24:16,539
- Aye.
- Aye.

384
00:24:17,165 --> 00:24:18,375
- Aye.
- Aye.

385
00:24:18,917 --> 00:24:20,543
- Aye, sir.
- Aye.

386
00:24:20,627 --> 00:24:21,627
Aye.

387
00:24:22,128 --> 00:24:24,547
- Aye.
- I never said "Aye..."

388
00:24:25,340 --> 00:24:27,926
but... I'm here.

389
00:24:28,009 --> 00:24:29,009
[clears throat]

390
00:24:30,637 --> 00:24:31,637
Aye.

391
00:24:32,138 --> 00:24:33,138
[all] Aye.

392
00:24:41,564 --> 00:24:45,068
Is there any way the symbiont
was joined with Adira against her will?

393
00:24:45,860 --> 00:24:48,655
A symbiont can't thrive
in an unwilling host.

394
00:24:48,738 --> 00:24:50,865
So, the issue might be with Adira herself.

395
00:24:52,534 --> 00:24:55,412
A repressed memory
related to the joining, perhaps.

396
00:24:55,495 --> 00:24:58,289
Whatever it is, she will need to face it.

397
00:24:58,373 --> 00:25:00,291
[footsteps approaching]

398
00:25:01,126 --> 00:25:04,087
[chuckles] It's not exactly my style.

399
00:25:04,671 --> 00:25:05,671
Please...

400
00:25:06,089 --> 00:25:07,089
enter.

401
00:25:20,270 --> 00:25:22,689
This is as new to us as it is to you.

402
00:25:23,189 --> 00:25:27,277
We cannot know how your brain
will process what you see.

403
00:25:30,905 --> 00:25:36,661
The Mynh'ta Orb will allow us
to track her isoboramine levels.

404
00:25:37,287 --> 00:25:39,748
As long as they are steady, she is safe.

405
00:26:00,060 --> 00:26:02,187
If you find Senna Tal down there...

406
00:26:04,022 --> 00:26:05,648
his message is pretty vital.

407
00:26:05,732 --> 00:26:06,732
I know.

408
00:26:10,862 --> 00:26:12,238
[Burnham] Good luck, Adira.

409
00:26:26,669 --> 00:26:28,213
She is now in communion.

[crackling]

411
00:26:37,388 --> 00:26:39,599
[Linus] Is that droog beetle pie?

[sniffs]

413
00:26:49,526 --> 00:26:52,987
- What is going on between you two?
- I don't know.

414
00:26:53,863 --> 00:26:57,700
- Nothing.
- This reminds me of harvest on Kaminar.

415
00:26:58,243 --> 00:27:00,370
Siranna and I would work from sunup

416
00:27:00,453 --> 00:27:04,916
until after sun fall, gathering
and drying our seasonal kelp crops.

417
00:27:04,999 --> 00:27:08,920
Our family would then dine together
under the full moon.

418

<i>Kelp dries in the sun

<i>Is there some dessert?</i>

420
00:27:16,344 --> 00:27:17,512
Is that a haiku?

421
00:27:19,681 --> 00:27:20,681
Yes.

- Haiku?

It was an actual diplomatic crisis.

This is not what I want to hear at dinner.
I mean, who raised you people?

433
00:27:46,958 --> 00:27:48,209
Get Detmer to do one.

434
00:27:48,835 --> 00:27:51,254
- No, no. I don't wanna...
- Come on, try.

435
00:27:51,337 --> 00:27:52,505

- I don't think...

- It's a poem.
- It's uncalled for.

Officers.

450

My life is not a joke
for the dinner table.

451
00:28:36,925 --> 00:28:38,509
I wasn't trying to make a joke.

452
00:28:40,011 --> 00:28:43,514
I was back at work
within a few hours of being injured.

453
00:28:43,598 --> 00:28:46,351
We wouldn't have gotten anywhere
near Earth if it weren't for me.

454
00:28:46,434 --> 00:28:48,154
You're not the only one
who moved this ship.

455
00:28:48,978 --> 00:28:51,397
I'm the pilot. We move it.

456
00:28:51,481 --> 00:28:53,121
- I never said it was just me.
- You think

457
00:28:53,191 --> 00:28:56,569
you're the only essential personnel
on this vessel. Look at you.

458
00:28:56,861 --> 00:28:58,947
- It's written all over you.
- Lieutenant.

459
00:28:59,030 --> 00:29:00,490
[Detmer] You wanna fly this monster?

460
00:29:00,573 --> 00:29:04,994
Actually be responsible
for every single person, every single day?

461
00:29:05,078 --> 00:29:07,413
Or do you just wanna be
the when-he-feels-like-it superhero

462
00:29:07,497 --> 00:29:08,998
and have everybody kiss your ass?

463
00:29:09,082 --> 00:29:11,960
The reality is I'm the only one
who can make the jumps.

464
00:29:12,043 --> 00:29:15,755
I flew us into the future.
I landed this ship.

465
00:29:15,838 --> 00:29:19,259
- I landed <i>Discovery.</i>
- Yes, and we barely survived.

Oh, my God. Stop it!

You are both acting like assholes.

- Ensign Tilly.
- Why don't we all just take a breath.

You guys think you have the market
cornered on pain?

470
00:29:29,686 --> 00:29:35,358
All of our sacrifices, all of our
experiences and our work, it matters!

471
00:29:35,858 --> 00:29:38,027
The only way we're gonna get through this
is as a crew.

I have work to do.

<i>Prepare for transfer.</i>

638
00:41:37,621 --> 00:41:40,165
Just hold my hand, okay? Hold my hand.

639
00:42:04,231 --> 00:42:05,231
You did it.

640
00:42:06,941 --> 00:42:07,859
It's okay.

00:42:48,901 --> 00:42:50,069
I missed you.

644
00:42:50,652 --> 00:42:52,071
I missed you so much.

645
00:42:53,655 --> 00:42:55,657
Tal accepted each of us.

646
00:42:57,534 --> 00:43:00,329
Joining made us more
than we could ever be alone.

647
00:43:00,412 --> 00:43:02,372
And while a human joining...

648
00:43:03,540 --> 00:43:04,540
is unusual...

649
00:43:05,793 --> 00:43:07,503
Tal accepts you, as well.

650
00:43:10,255 --> 00:43:11,255
Thank you.

651
00:43:15,260 --> 00:43:16,386
You're Senna Tal.

652
00:43:19,890 --> 00:43:21,517
Welcome to the circle.

653
00:43:31,276 --> 00:43:33,946
Thank you, sir. Your message gave me hope.

654
00:43:43,705 --> 00:43:44,706
It's time for us to go.

Gray Tal.

664
00:44:57,571 --> 00:44:59,907
And I am Adira Tal.

665

[speaking foreign language]

666
00:45:12,753 --> 00:45:14,421
[Vos] Our deepest apologies, Adira Tal.

667
00:45:15,714 --> 00:45:16,714
We were wrong.

668
00:45:18,467 --> 00:45:24,431
Guardian Xi, what you have done here
will impact generations of Trill to come.

669
00:45:25,390 --> 00:45:26,558
Adira Tal...

670
00:45:27,726 --> 00:45:32,314
it would be my honor to guide
and mentor you on your new path.

671
00:45:40,781 --> 00:45:41,781
Thank you.

672
00:45:42,741 --> 00:45:43,741
But...

673
00:45:43,867 --> 00:45:46,370
I believe I'm supposed
to stay with <i>Discovery.</i>

674
00:45:47,996 --> 00:45:51,250
The symbionts are a gift for everyone,
not just the Trill.

675
00:45:52,668 --> 00:45:54,962
And I think
I'm supposed to be that messenger.

676
00:45:57,881 --> 00:46:00,926
You will keep us apprised
of your well-being?

677
00:46:01,802 --> 00:46:02,802
Of course.

678
00:46:04,221 --> 00:46:08,183
And perhaps someday,
when the Federation returns...

679
00:46:09,184 --> 00:46:12,312
we will discuss a different joining.

680
00:46:14,648 --> 00:46:15,983
It would be our honor.

681
00:46:33,208 --> 00:46:34,710
Thank you for doing this, sir.

682
00:46:36,211 --> 00:46:38,380
I know it didn't go the way
that you hoped.

683
00:46:42,009 --> 00:46:46,013
Captain Pike made connecting
with the crew seem so...

684
00:46:47,514 --> 00:46:49,266
- effortless.
- For what it's worth,

685
00:46:49,349 --> 00:46:52,269
this was like a Tuesday
at my house growing up, so...

686
00:46:56,982 --> 00:46:57,982
Sir...

687
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,864
we made a decision together...

688
00:47:05,198 --> 00:47:07,200
and we are living with it together.

689
00:47:08,869 --> 00:47:12,789
The fact that you reminded us of that
and reminded us who we are to each other,

690
00:47:12,873 --> 00:47:13,873
That...

691
00:47:14,291 --> 00:47:16,501
Maybe this isn't my place to say...

692
00:47:18,378 --> 00:47:19,713
but I think that's leadership.

693
00:47:23,383 --> 00:47:24,593
Thank you, ensign.

694
00:47:26,219 --> 00:47:27,971

Tilly.

697
00:47:35,145 --> 00:47:38,440
Everything that I've done
since I've been on this ship...

698
00:47:39,733 --> 00:47:42,319
would have been impossible without you.

699
00:47:44,196 --> 00:47:46,782
I've failed to let you know that.

700
00:47:48,617 --> 00:47:49,659
I always knew it.

701
00:47:51,787 --> 00:47:52,954
I failed to tell you.

702
00:47:55,248 --> 00:47:56,248
I apologize.

703
00:47:56,958 --> 00:47:58,251
Thank you. Thank you.

704
00:48:00,504 --> 00:48:04,299
I've been wondering, what did you learn
in your spore-drive research?

705
00:48:04,383 --> 00:48:05,967
Oh, nothing. I was...

706
00:48:06,885 --> 00:48:09,221
looking at dark matter
and energy coefficients,

707
00:48:09,304 --> 00:48:11,098
but the math didn't work, so...

708
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:17,562
A new interface using dark matter
would be revolutionary.

709
00:48:19,439 --> 00:48:20,816
We should keep talking about it.

710
00:48:23,443 --> 00:48:24,611
Okay.

711
00:48:28,698 --> 00:48:29,698
[Detmer] Hey.

712

[clears throat]

713
00:48:39,251 --> 00:48:40,251
Are you okay?

714
00:48:43,588 --> 00:48:44,588
No.

715
00:48:45,757 --> 00:48:46,757
Obviously.

716
00:48:52,264 --> 00:48:53,557
That was hard for me to admit.

717
00:48:56,059 --> 00:48:57,059
For anyone.

718
00:48:58,728 --> 00:48:59,729
And you're a pilot.

719
00:49:01,231 --> 00:49:03,316
- Pilots are, um...
- Macho.

720
00:49:04,609 --> 00:49:05,694
I know.

721
00:49:08,613 --> 00:49:11,741
That talk you suggested...

722
00:49:13,201 --> 00:49:14,870
maybe I could take you up on it.

723
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:18,080
Anytime.

Yeah. We all had to stop pretending
we were fine first.

We are not, are we?

732
00:50:25,357 --> 00:50:26,566
How could we be?

733
00:50:28,610 --> 00:50:29,861
But we'll get there.

734
00:50:30,612 --> 00:50:31,780
And you pushed us closer.

Ah. It was not pretty.

It never is.

Good choice, captain.

I wish I could take credit, doctor.

This wasn't you?

00:50:49,839 --> 00:50:51,049
I have a theory.

741
00:50:52,092 --> 00:50:55,679
The sphere data was transmitted here
for us to protect it.

742
00:50:56,388 --> 00:50:58,139
It lives on within <i>Discovery.</i>

743
00:50:58,723 --> 00:51:02,060
As we are now inextricably connected,

744
00:51:02,644 --> 00:51:06,314
perhaps now it desires to protect us.

745
00:51:21,955 --> 00:51:24,958
Senna knew the algorithm we need
to find Federation headquarters.

746

I already did the math.

- They'll take you where you need to go.

You're gonna insult my musical ability
for the rest of my life?

You didn't tell her about me.

759
00:52:48,833 --> 00:52:50,835
I'm not sure she'll believe me.
