00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,957
[narrator]
<i>Previously on</i> Star Trek: Discovery:

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:04,633
What is happening to you?

3
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,919
I don't think I'm Ash Tyler, Starfleet
lieutenant. Not really. Not anymore.

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,959
[L'Rell] We modified Voq into a shell
that appears human.

5
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:14,600
We grafted his psyche into Tyler's.

6
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:18,720
I do not know where your Voq ends
and our Tyler begins,

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:20,473
but they are both in jeopardy.

8
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:21,391
[gasps]

9
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,949
Only my hands can tend to him.

10
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,279
[screaming]

11
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,078
Logic tells me
she's not the woman that I betrayed.

12
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:33,389
She's a ghost.

13
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:34,480
[grunts]

14
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,476
I have no future now. Find a way home.
I will buy you some time.

15
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,150
Get her out of there.

16
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,313
What have you done to me?

17
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,392
[Tilly] If we blow the reactor core,

18
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:56,359
the resulting explosion
will be pure mycelial energy.

19
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,193
We can ride it long enough

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,035
for the energy to activate the drive,
then you can navigate us home.

21
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,758
We overshot by nine months.

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,232
If the map is to be believed,
it appears the Klingons have won the war.

23
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:26,680
Captain.

24
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,440
Emperor.

25
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,880
- On your knees, slave.
- This Kelpien is my captain.

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,320
Sir, I can explain.

27
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,871
Yesterday we dined
on the entrails of his brethren,

28
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,830
and today you seek his favor?

29
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,033
Transport our visitor to guest quarters
on Deck 3, and confine her there now.

30
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,753
You said there were no Kelpiens
in the other universe. You lied.

31
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,832
I hoped to spare you the pain.

32
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,670
The presence of a Terran defector
on this ship is classified.

33
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,070
Its utterance carries a penalty
of treason.

34
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:13,799
- Understand?
- Aye, captain.

35
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,914
[woman] <i>Captain,
your presence is requested in Sickbay.</i>

36
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,036
With me.

37
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,239
[Burnham] I could offer excuses.

38
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,959
I... was trying to destabilize
the Terran Empire.

39
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,751
I... I thought Starfleet could benefit
from learning about an alternate universe.

40
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,112
Truth is, I couldn't watch her die again.
I wanted to offer her more.

41
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:41,240
I am sorry.

42
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,879
Saving Georgiou may prove
to be a grave error in judgment, but...

43
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,231
No one else could've done what you did
aboard that Terran ship.

44
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,198
You are alive and we are home.

45
00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:58,274
Any news from Command?

46
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,990
Federation ships have appeared on sensors,
but none answer my hail.

47
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,037
Doesn't feel much like home.

48
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,555
<i>Discovery</i> suffered damage riding
the shockwave back into our universe.

49
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:13,429
We are running on auxiliary power
until repairs are complete. Deck 4.

50
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:21,237
Dr. Pollard has orders to alert me when
Lieutenant Tyler regains consciousness.

51
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,879
An emergency surgical procedure
proved necessary.

52
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,235
An attempt to excise the Klingon
in Tyler's neurological identity.

53
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,197
How? What happened to him was completely
outside the realm of sanctioned medicine.

54
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,516
Starfleet did not perform the procedure.

55
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,871
It was the Klingon, L'Rell.

56
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,070
- His torturer.
- And handler.

57
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,316
She oversaw Tyler's transformation.

58
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,079
None of us are sure
what state we might find him in.

59
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:01,631
I am hoping that a familiar face
could offer him encouragement to heal.

60
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:08,516
How he reacts to you may offer us insight
into who he has become.

61
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:10,680
Captain, he's awake.

62
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,074
Is that an order, captain?

63
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,357
- I fail to understand.
- Is that an order, to see him?

64
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,440
No.

65
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,916
I'm sorry. I can't.

66
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,635
What are your findings?

67
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,031
By all assessments,
the patient now presents as Ash Tyler.

68
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,760
Adrenal corticotropic hormonal levels
are normal.

69
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,759
Cellular mitochondric counts
are within human range.

70
00:04:42,840 --> 00:04:46,754
I find no remaining evidence
of Klingon aggression or muscular stamina.

71
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,471
So, is he human or Klingon?

72
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,876
[sighs] Neither? Both?

73
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,313
We can't be sure.
Not without understanding the science

74
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,318
behind the reassignment procedure.

75
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,753
- And how do we do that?
- I suppose we could start by asking him.

76
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,077
[woman]
<i>Ensign Taylor to the Command Deck.</i>

77
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:12,880
[Saru] Tyler.

78
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:16,750
Mr. Saru.

79
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,154
Thanks for the save.

80
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,152
And Voq?

81
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,914
I can access his memories,
but there's a disconnect,

82
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,392
like I'm watching someone else's life
or something.

83
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,711
Do you remember what was done to you?

84
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,160
[sighs]

85
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,918
The Mo'Kai call it a choH'a'.

86
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,710
Species reassignment protocol.
Specifically designed to infiltrate

87
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,678
classified Starfleet intelligence.

88
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,832
- Are there others?
- Voq was the test case.

89
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,355
They flayed his skin...

90
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,394
cracked his bones open...

91
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,033
sawed his heart into pieces.

92
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,271
You think that'll be the worst of it...

93
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,274
then they shave down the tips
of your fingers.

94
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,039
Voq was T'Kuvma's Torchbearer.

95
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,351
He submitted to the torture willingly
at L'Rell's behest.

96
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,838
They were the only believers left.

97
00:06:28,840 --> 00:06:33,357
Voq and L'Rell believed taking this ship
would bring followers to T'Kuvma's house.

98
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,232
They were in love, you know.

99
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:39,880
Uh...

100
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,070
Will you cooperate with us,
share everything you know?

101
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,160
Of course.

102
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,160
I would do anything
to undo what I've done.

103
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,160
Is she alive?

104
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:00,120
Uh...

105
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,917
Specialist Burnham has returned safely
aboard <i>Discovery.</i>

106
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,395
Thank God.

107
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,000
- Can I...?
- Focus on your recovery.

108
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,670
- You both survived a harrowing ordeal.
- Saru, I tried to kill her.

109
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,870
I murdered...

110
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:24,596
Dr. Culber.

111
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,630
- I belong in the brig.
- Voq is responsible for your crimes.

112
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,757
I see no semblance of him before me.

113
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,635
[powering up]

114
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,554
Your privileges aboard <i>Discovery</i>
will be limited...

115
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,079
but I will not take your freedom.

116
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,517
[chattering]

117
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,035
Vessel is approaching.
Federation signature.

118
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,592
- Hail them at once.
- Aye, captain.

119
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,631
Captain, its shields are up,
its phasers are charged and targeting.

120
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:13,591
[alarm wailing]

121
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,713
- Shields up.
- I'm picking up a transporter signature.

122
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:18,640
We're being boarded.

123
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,159
- Identify yourselves.
- Hands where I can see them.

124
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,152
- [woman] Get back.
- [man] Don't move.

125
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,439
- I demand an explanation.
- We ask the questions.

126
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,880
Clear for transport.

127
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,796
- Admiral.
- Where's Captain Lorca?

128
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,520
- Sarek, please.
- Stand down, specialist. Now.

129
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,953
Computer, initiate command-level override.

130
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:52,997
Authorization, Admiral Katrina Cornwell,
pi beta six.

131
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,635
[systems powering down]

132
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,240
[computer] <i>Override confirmed.</i>

133
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,240
Start with him.

134
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,000
[Saru] What are you doing?

135
00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:07,399
What the times require.

136
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:10,755
My mind to your mind.

137
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,031
My thoughts to your thoughts.

138
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,351
Mr. Saru is who he appears to be.

139
00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:36,153
The <i>Discovery</i> has been through...
an inconceivable ordeal.

140
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,157
Then where is her commanding officer?

141
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,551
Captain Lorca... is dead.

142
00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:29,680
[Cornwell] Bastard.

143
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,589
The Lorca I came up with was measured,
he was reasoned.

144
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:38,399
I couldn't have imagined...

145
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,473
That Lorca was an imposter
from an alternate universe

146
00:11:41,560 --> 00:11:43,791
was not the most obvious conclusion.

147
00:11:44,680 --> 00:11:46,114
We were all deceived.

148
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,716
<i>Discovery</i> was destroyed by Klingons
nine months ago.

149
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,269
I saw the debris with my own eyes.

150
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,514
That wreckage belonged
to the Terran <i>Discovery.</i>

151
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,399
The ships switched places
when we jumped universes.

152
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,871
From what you say about the Terran Empire,
no Starfleet officer

153
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,872
could survive that universe alone.

154
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,398
So, my Gabriel is dead.

155
00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:16,594
Lorca sidelined the most vital asset
in our fleet.

156
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,429
Now, with your return,

157
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,911
we've disseminated
your hard-earned cloak-breaking algorithm

158
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,195
to the front lines,

159
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,670
which will neutralize
the Klingons' ability

160
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,479
to render their ships invisible.

161
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,592
But our fear is it's too late.

162
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,791
The war here has waged on
for nine brutal months without it.

163
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:43,719
Stardate 4789.6, Klingon vessels launch
hypothermic charges at Kelfour VI,

164
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,670
burning off their atmosphere
and killing 11,000 civilians instantly.

165
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:55,072
Stardate 4851.5,
a cloaked raider tails the <i>U.S.S. Saratoga</i>

166
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,516
into Spacedock at Starbase 22,

167
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,389
then ignites its antimatter supply
in a suicide mission.

168
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:06,396
Days later, similar assaults
are carried out on Bases 19 and 12,

169
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,640
resulting in the loss
of one-third of our fleet.

170
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,997
Research outposts at the border colonies
of Nivalla, Septra, and Iridin

171
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:16,954
have also been destroyed.

172
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,672
The only children spared are now orphans.

173
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,354
There's no pattern to the attacks,
no logical progression to their targets.

174
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,636
There's not even consistency of method.

175
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,760
In the absence of a clear leader,
the Klingon houses are divided again.

176
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,959
At the start of this war,
we fought one enemy.

177
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,555
Now we fight 24.

178
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,313
They quarrel among themselves,
hence the indiscriminate nature

179
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,235
of their aggression,
but their collective aim seems clear:

180
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:51,874
To compete for dominance

181
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,636
by seeing which house can destroy
the most Federation assets.

182
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,952
We are fodder for their futile savagery.

183
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,834
Our deaths, their spoils.

184
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,510
Nearly 20 percent of former
Federation space has been occupied.

185
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,831
<i>Discovery</i> will jump to Starbase I
immediately.

186
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,233
All evidence of your recent journey
will be classified and destroyed.

187
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,793
We cannot risk the knowledge
of this alternate universe

188
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,072
- leaving the confines of <i>Discovery.</i>
- I don't understand.

189
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,800
There would be too many possibilities.

190
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:26,880
[Sarek] Indeed.

191
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,670
Our people have suffered terrible losses.

192
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,673
What would you do if you thought
that your dead wife, your lost child,

193
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,677
your murdered parents might be alive
on the other side

194
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,717
and that a technology exists
for you to see them again?

195
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,120
This knowledge must be buried.

196
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,795
Command will want this locked down.

197
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,238
Of course, admiral.

198
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,392
Starbase I
is our only remaining sanctuary.

199
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,189
Can you jump us there?

200
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,398
Well, it's, uh, 100 AU's from Earth

201
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,995
and over a light-year
from our current position.

202
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,359
We used up our supply of spores
to get us home,

203
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,353
and I can't jump without them.

204
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:16,153
The journey at warp will be perilous.
Klingons swarm the quadrant.

205
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,078
I'm afraid we have no choice.

206
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,676
Saru, take the ship to warp
as soon as possible.

207
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,076
Admiral...

208
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,476
there's one more thing you need to know.

209
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:39,876
Emperor, the Federation has questions.
I need you to answer them.

210
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:45,271
What kind of guest would I be
if I refused such a simple request?

211
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,675
I'm told that, in your universe,
your word is law.

212
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,479
- Here, we do things differently.
- I can see that.

213
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,831
The resemblance is remarkable.

214
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,716
What do you know of your counterpart,
Captain Philippa Georgiou?

215
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,391
I know that she is dead, and I am not.

216
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:15,158
But I will leave you to determine
which of us has proved stronger.

217
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,151
[Cornwell]
Specialist Burnham has assured us

218
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,836
that your arrival in this universe
is without motive.

219
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,639
But your presence here
remains complicated.

220
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,837
The solution, however, is not.

221
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,234
Send me home.

222
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,472
The emperor narrowly escaped
a violent revolution.

223
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,311
- She deserves political asylum.
- I don't need your protection.

224
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,633
We have charted a course for Starbase I.
You will be held there humanely

225
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,519
until Command determines
a proper course of action.

226
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,239
So, I am your prisoner.

227
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,034
[Cornwell] Look, Your Highness,
or whatever you're called,

228
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,873
I'll tell it to you straight.

229
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,520
I'm not even sure
we know how to send you home,

230
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,990
and even if we did,
we have a war to fight.

231
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:05,200
I'm sorry. Like I said, you're our guest.
Make yourself at home.

232
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,038
The resemblance is remarkable.

233
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,119
See that she's comfortable.

234
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:18,669
[door opens]

235
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,435
[door closes]

236
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:34,879
[woman over PA] <i>Attention all cadets.</i>

237
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,350

00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:38,794

240
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:42,880
I'm sorry.

241
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,156
Words... Words are not enough,
and I know that...

242
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:50,520
but I am.

243
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,197
You killed a good man.

244
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,800
A man that I loved.

245
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,235
Do you remember that?

246
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,437
- I do now.
- And...

247
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:06,360
does it gut you?

248
00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:08,440
Does it sicken you?

249
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,720
Good.

250
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,797
Maybe you're still human after all.

251
00:18:27,120 --> 00:18:28,120
[chattering]

252
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:34,910
[chattering stops]

253
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,160
[bell dings]

254
00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,440
Excuse me.

255
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,040
You don't have to do this. I'm okay.

256
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,353
How could that possibly be true?

257
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,190
Just eat, and talk if you want to.

258
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:28,400
I'm here.

259
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:40,120
Welcome back.

260
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,758
[speaking indistinctly]

261
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,595
Admiral. Starbase I within range.

262
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,031
Well done, all.

263
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:07,034
[Bryce] <i>U.S.S. Discovery</i> to Starbase I,
permission to initiate docking procedures.

264
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:12,311
- She'll be a sight for sore eyes.
- Admiral, I'm unable to establish contact.

265
00:20:13,120 --> 00:20:14,474
Reset our channels.

266
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,995
I'll override the comms restrictions
manually.

267
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,035
- Detmer, drop us out of warp.
- Aye, admiral.

268
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,799
- Bring Starbase I on-screen.
- Aye, admiral.

269
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:42,230
No.

270
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:50,960
[Owosekun] Enhancing image.

271
00:20:54,120 --> 00:20:55,713
[Burnham] That's a Klingon crest.

272
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,752
- House D'Ghor.
- They've seized a Federation starbase?

273
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,639
- Scan for life signs, now.
- [Owosekun] Complying.

274
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,878
- Sensing 274 Klingon life signs aboard.
- Federation life.

275
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,350
Negative, admiral. There's nothing.

276
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,069
There were 80,000 souls on that base.

277
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,393
A large contingent of our leadership
and at least three starships.

278
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,711
The Klingons are practically
in Earth's backyard.

279
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,513
Captain, we're being scanned.

280
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:22,636
[computer beeping]

281
00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:30,000
- Maximum warp. Get us out of here.
- Yes, sir.

282
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,111
[computer]
<i>Long-range sensors to maximum.</i>

283
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,590
[man] <i>Maintain constant scans
of Klingon contacts.</i>

284
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,680
Admiral, <i>Discovery</i> awaits your orders.

285
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,118
Maintain current course and speed.

286
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,992
We will make contact with Command.

287
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:09,269
What's left of them.

288
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,110
[door opens, then closes]

289
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,351
You live.

290
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,875
You finally made it aboard
the <i>U.S.S. Discovery,</i>

291
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,749
though I suspect you found
the accommodations lacking.

292
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,799
Even from a cage, Kahless hears my call.

293
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,270
I do not subscribe to your ideals...

294
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,394
and yet I feel as though you
and I understand each other.

295
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,433
T'Kuvma taught
that all humans are without courage.

296
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,633
About this, he was wrong.

297
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,159
I wanna be truthful with you.

298
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:09,635
Your side is winning.

299
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,630
When we met,
you had nothing but contempt

300
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,519
for the crumbling leadership
of the Klingon Empire.

301
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,150
T'Kuvma sought to strengthen
and unify the Great Houses.

302
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:25,234
If he has succeeded in only this,
it is cause for celebration.

303
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:30,952
Your Great Houses are carving up
Federation assets among their factions.

304
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,829
A captured starbase
bears the insignia of House D'Ghor,

305
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,119
not of the Klingon Empire.

306
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,071
Is that the kind of unity
your messiah proclaimed?

307
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:46,038
They think nothing of collateral damage
caused by their brutal attacks.

308
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:50,080
They target civilians, hospitals,
food convoys.

309
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,753
They slaughter innocents
and inspire terror across the quadrant.

310
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,958
This is war,
not a child's game with rules.

311
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,000
We fight to preserve Klingon identity.

312
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,232
No one is looking to destroy your culture.

313
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,950
Our laws are founded in equality, freedom.

314
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,238
T'Kuvma taught us
that the Federation cannot help itself.

315
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,677
It seeks universal homogenization
and assimilation.

316
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,195
T'Kuvma was an ignorant fool.

317
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:23,231
And your people are moving closer
and closer to my home planet.

318
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,797
What are you looking for?

319
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,955
More territory? Conditional surrender?
Your people won't even make demands. Why?

320
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,951
How does this war end?

321
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:37,400
It doesn't.

322
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,357
Klingons have tasted your blood.

323
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:41,920
Conquer us...

324
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,193
or we will never relent.

325
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:49,880
Thank you.

326
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,231
There's been a change of plans.

327
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:07,995
Another Klingon attack.

328
00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:12,830
- You have to stay onboard a little longer.
- It makes no difference.

329
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,994
One cell in this universe
is as good as another.

330
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,879
- You heard your admiral.
- We mean you no harm.

331
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,155
- The admiral...
- Tell me about the Vulcan.

332
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,472
- There is a connection between you.
- Why would you say that?

333
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,758
The way you look at him
is not unlike how you look at me.

334
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,634
He's essentially my father. He raised me.

335
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:37,915
- So, you were orphaned here as well.
- Another echo of fate between our worlds.

336
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:43,192
Your rule extends
through every system in your galaxy.

337
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,519
You've conquered places
Starfleet hasn't dared to explore.

338
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,669
I see now that the time for peace
has passed.

339
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:57,752
I need you to tell me,
how did you defeat the Klingon Empire?

340
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,871
I started this war,
and I need to finish it.

341
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,673
Why did you bring me here?

342
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:08,600
Truly.

343
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,399
I wanted to show you a place of morality,
of hope.

344
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,997
Let me tell you,
daughter who is not my daughter,

345
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,152
in truth, you wished to save me
because you couldn't save her.

346
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,912
This regret that you have
for what you did,

347
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,193
it weakens you.

348
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,553
I feel it every day of my life.

349
00:26:42,120 --> 00:26:46,672
The Klingons are like cancer cells,
constantly dividing.

350
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:53,240
To root them out,
you must destroy the tumor at its source.

351
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,198
How much do you know about Qo'noS?

352
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,199
I don't have to tell you
it's the middle of the night.

353
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,156
I have a proposal.

354
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,556
I left <i>Discovery</i> only to learn
that a Klingon attack is imminent.

355
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,270
They are gathering forces
to launch a strike on this whole system.

356
00:27:19,360 --> 00:27:24,958
The Klingons are taking the fight to us.
We need to take it to them. To Qo'noS.

357
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,997
- Attack the Klingon homeworld?
- [Cornwell] Not a simple attack.

358
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,710
A simultaneous strike
on their planetary defense batteries,

359
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,599
immediately followed
by the coordinated destruction

360
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,275
of all military targets planet-wide.

361
00:27:38,360 --> 00:27:41,114
A single offensive so destructive

362
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,433
it will force the enemy to retreat
from Federation space and head for home.

363
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,434
Our remaining fleet is being called back
to defend Earth.

364
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,599
<i>Discovery</i> should join them.

365
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,957
[Sarek] Each path of logic leads
to the same conclusion:

366
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,677
Starfleet tactics have failed us.

367
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,116
We must adapt
if we're to have any hope of survival.

368
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,152
Qo'noS is uncharted territory.

369
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,315
We have no idea
where their defense batteries are,

370
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,154
much less weapon-production systems
or shipyards.

371
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,755
[Andorian] The planet's dense
upper atmosphere prevents

372
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,480
long-range topographical
and energy analysis.

373
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,712
No Starfleet officer has set foot there
in this century.

374
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,595
[woman] Your strategy is a good one,
but it's not feasible without a map.

375
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,872
By the time <i>Discovery</i> got close enough
to begin surveying,

376
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:27,917
they'd blow her out of the sky.

377
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,518
She's not gonna be in the sky.

378
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,076
Let's go over it again. Qo'noS is composed
of a subterranean series

379
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,915
of now-dormant volcanoes.
It is a planet of caves.

380
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,959
Some of them,
according to Specialist Burnham's intel,

381
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,874
are big enough
to house a Crossfield-class starship.

382
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,872
Rather than surveil targets from orbit,

383
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,714
we can map the terrain
from the inside out.

384
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,713
Thereby minimizing our risk of detection.

385
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,635
Jumping a massive starship
inside a cave of impenetrable rock

386
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,189
does seem... challenging.

387
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,114
[Stamets] Travel aboard
the mycelial network is in itself

388
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,910
a sort of advanced detection system
of geophysical imaging.

389
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,674
I can easily identify the voids in energy

390
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,912
that would represent a chasm
versus a solid mass.

391
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,278
And once we're in position
within the cave system,

392
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:21,235
we'll release our surveillance drone
to collect tactical information.

393
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:22,360
[Cornwell] Good.

394
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,956
I've assured Starfleet we can do this.

395
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,679
And by "we," I mean you.

396
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,713
It's a good plan, specialist.

397
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,473
- Well done.
- Thank you.

398
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,440
One question, how do we get the spores
necessary to make the jump?

399
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,159
We'll have to grow them.

400
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,680
My understanding is that
your crop took years to cultivate.

401
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,840
Set a course for the Veda System and...

402
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,070
get ready for a show.

403
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,311
<i>Prototaxites stellaviatori.</i>

404
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,593
My original sample

405
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,756
and the last remaining mycelium
of this strain.

406
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,913
We are headed to an uninhabited
class-four moon in the Veda System.

407
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,670
And if this works...
I might even let you name it.

408
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:21,479
You're gonna terraform a moon?

409
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,518
Your research on the success of an organic
mycelial harvest was indeterminable...

410
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,389
Straal quashed it.
He wanted to keep the crop captive.

411
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,152
But if ever there was a time to go wild...

412
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:38,835
Your child is lost.

413
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,515
Do not confuse my ward with yours.

414
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,679
My daughter was a singular example
of brilliance

415
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,436
until one foolish choice doomed her world.

416
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:50,909
Sound familiar?

417
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,751
If I understand correctly,
my ward saw through the man

418
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,072
who brought down not just your child,
but your empire.

419
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,715
Perhaps best not to make comparisons.

420
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,551
Why have you requested my presence?

421
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,876
You were summoned, Vulcan, for one reason.

422
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,116
I want to help you end this war.

423
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,474
The information you provided Michael
has already proved valuable.

424
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,791
I told her as much as she could handle.

425
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,394
Our daughters are not so unlike after all.

426
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:37,230
In my world, Qo'noS is little more
than a blackened mass of dust.

427
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,711
The Klingons fight for scraps
and fear certain death.

428
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:49,116
But it took a great deal more than
a mapping drone in a cave to get there.

429
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,710
You assured Michael
that your plan would prove effective.

430
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,156
And it will, momentarily.

431
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,109
But they will regroup.

432
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:04,273
Their longing to destroy the symbol
that is Earth runs far too deep.

433
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:10,516
What if I could show you how to bring them
to their knees once and for all?

434
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:17,395
The Federation does not subscribe to what
I imagine are Terran methods of combat.

435
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,599
You face annihilation.

436
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:25,231
Is it not logical to do anything you can
to save the lives of your kind?

437
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,319
Give me what I want...

438
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,714
and I can assure victory
for the Federation.

439
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,472
- What are your terms?
- Freedom.

440
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,753
I must return to Vulcan.

441
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,231
There are evolving details to the plan
that must be considered.

442
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,472
- What evolving details?
- I sense you are uneasy.

443
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,638
During my mind-meld with Saru,
I learned of your attachment

444
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,999
to the Klingon spy and what he did to you.
Such events are clearly troubling.

445
00:32:58,440 --> 00:32:59,556
I'm fine, Sarek.

446
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,040
I remain unconvinced.

447
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,237
There is irony here.
The man you fell in love with was Klingon.

448
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:07,356
He...

449
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,914
I don't know what he was.

450
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,593
There is also grace.

451
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,112
For what greater source of peace exists

452
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,916
than our ability to love our enemy?

453
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:24,833
I've made foolish choices.

454
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:27,719
Emotional choices.

455
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,231
Well, you are human.

456
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:35,870
As is your mother.

457
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:43,072
There is no telling what any one of us
may do where the heart is concerned.

458
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:46,869
We are at war.

459
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,311
Logic dictates
that each farewell may be our last.

460
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,559
Do not regret loving someone, Michael.

461
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,917
The admiral requested a status report.

462
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,274
This is the last
of the mycelial transport vessels.

463
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,670
We'll be able to launch
by the time we reach Veda.

464
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,273
I just said goodbye to my father
and it felt different.

465
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:38,440
Final.

466
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,959
It won't be... right?

467
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,758
Did you ever think,
when you signed up for Starfleet,

468
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,591
that you'd be forced to see war and death?

469
00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:01,077
Death found me when I was a child,
so, yeah, I knew what I was getting into.

470
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,873
I don't think I did. Not really.

471
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,314
Does that make me naive?

472
00:35:10,240 --> 00:35:11,594
It makes you optimistic.

473
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,157
When we were in the Terran universe,
I was reminded how much

474
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:24,471
a person is shaped by their environment.

475
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,596
The only way we can stop ourselves
from becoming them

476
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,718
is to understand the darkness within us
and fight it.

477
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:36,636
Tyler needs you.

478
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,518
- I'm told he's doing well.
- Not possible when you've lost

479
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:46,116
- the person you care about most.
- He killed a Starfleet officer.

480
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:51,199
And he... He tried to kill me.

481
00:35:51,720 --> 00:35:55,680
Those crimes are reprehensible,
but Tyler's not the person who did that.

482
00:35:55,760 --> 00:36:00,789
At least he's not anymore.
He is something other, someone new.

483
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:05,673
What we do now, the way that we treat him,
that is who he will become.

484
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,712
I know you still care about him.

485
00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:11,240
I do.

486
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,559
That does not mean I should.

487
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,558
Michael, he's been stripped of his badge,
he'll never fly for Starfleet again.

488

He'll be lucky if he doesn't end up
in a lab or a cell.

What kind of future can he have?

And no matter how hard I try...
