1
00:00:08,443 --> 00:00:09,966
Previously on Star Trek: Discovery...
2
00:00:10,010 --> 00:00:12,360
BURNHAM: With the
Enterprise in Spacedock,
3
00:00:12,403 --> 00:00:14,275
Captain Pike and Discovery's mission
4
00:00:14,318 --> 00:00:16,190
to find any rational explanation
5
00:00:16,233 --> 00:00:17,930
for the seven signals
continues to escape me.
6
00:00:17,974 --> 00:00:19,584
And with it, perhaps, any chance
7
00:00:19,628 --> 00:00:21,456
of a relationship with my brother Spock.
8
00:00:21,499 --> 00:00:24,937
Computer, show me Starfleet's
rendering of the seven signals.
9
00:00:24,981 --> 00:00:26,200
Spock drew these signals
10
00:00:26,243 --> 00:00:28,202
two months before they appeared to us.
11
00:00:28,245 --> 00:00:29,681
It's damn near identical.
12
00:00:31,857 --> 00:00:33,555
BURNHAM: Amanda?
13
00:00:33,598 --> 00:00:35,470
[WHISPERS]: I stole Spock's medical file.
14
00:00:35,513 --> 00:00:37,559
I've been waiting for an
update on my officer, Spock.
15
00:00:37,602 --> 00:00:39,430
Your guy is wanted for murder.
16
00:00:39,474 --> 00:00:41,563
Killed three of his doctors,
then fled the starbase.
17
00:00:41,606 --> 00:00:44,000
AMANDA: I thought that he
had left it in the past,
18
00:00:44,044 --> 00:00:45,610
but it's back.
19
00:00:45,654 --> 00:00:48,613
- What is it?
- Your brother called it the Red Angel.
20
00:00:48,657 --> 00:00:50,572
That vision changed him forever.
21
00:00:50,615 --> 00:00:52,226
It wasn't because of a vision.
22
00:00:52,269 --> 00:00:55,403
- It was because of me.
- What did you do?
23
00:00:55,446 --> 00:00:56,404
I will find him.
24
00:00:56,447 --> 00:00:58,232
No.
25
00:00:58,275 --> 00:01:00,147
I will.
26
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:03,498
Got it.
27
00:01:03,541 --> 00:01:04,934
TILLY: After the dark matter hit me...
28
00:01:04,977 --> 00:01:07,763
- It's me.
- I started to see a ghost.
29
00:01:07,806 --> 00:01:09,852
- Her name was May, but she's dead.
- Tilly.
30
00:01:09,895 --> 00:01:11,984
- I am losing, Michael.
- BURNHAM: You don't need sickbay.
31
00:01:12,028 --> 00:01:13,812
- You need Stamets.
- We should have results
32
00:01:13,856 --> 00:01:15,118
- in one second.
- There he is.
33
00:01:15,162 --> 00:01:17,251
That's the captain.
That's where he flies.
34
00:01:17,294 --> 00:01:18,774
Just as I suspected.
35
00:01:18,817 --> 00:01:21,733
- You are hosting a eukaryotic organism.
- A fungus?
36
00:01:21,777 --> 00:01:23,996
This might hurt a bit.
37
00:01:25,955 --> 00:01:27,957
[GRUNTS]
38
00:01:30,177 --> 00:01:32,657
Security breach by unknown
alien species in Engineering.
39
00:01:32,701 --> 00:01:35,834
Engage quarantine protocol Alpha-Omega.
40
00:01:39,708 --> 00:01:41,840
Energize.
41
00:01:41,884 --> 00:01:43,103
Teleporter incoming.
42
00:01:56,420 --> 00:01:58,770
- Captain.
- Welcome aboard Discovery, Number One.
43
00:01:58,814 --> 00:02:01,338
The failures cascaded
through all our primaries.
44
00:02:01,382 --> 00:02:04,124
Helm, nav, both impulse and
warp drive. Chief Louvier
45
00:02:04,167 --> 00:02:06,082
has an engineering team
working 'round the clock.
46
00:02:06,126 --> 00:02:08,476
I don't think Enterprise will
ever have a chief engineer
47
00:02:08,519 --> 00:02:09,825
more in love with his ship.
48
00:02:09,868 --> 00:02:11,479
Apparently, Enterprise is the only ship
49
00:02:11,522 --> 00:02:13,002
in the fleet that's had any problems.
50
00:02:13,045 --> 00:02:14,134
You know, he warned me.
51
00:02:14,177 --> 00:02:15,657
The damn holographic comm system.
52
00:02:15,700 --> 00:02:17,180
Tell Louvier to rip
out the entire system.
53
00:02:17,224 --> 00:02:18,616
From now on we'll communicate
54
00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:20,052
using good, old-fashioned viewscreens.
55
00:02:20,096 --> 00:02:21,663
Truth is I never liked the holograms.
56
00:02:21,706 --> 00:02:23,491
They look too much like ghosts.
57
00:02:23,534 --> 00:02:25,667
[CHUCKLES] He told you I'd say that.
58
00:02:25,710 --> 00:02:27,799
No. I told him.
59
00:02:28,446 --> 00:02:30,584
Cheeseburger. Fries.
Habanero sauce.
60
00:02:30,619 --> 00:02:32,674
You want to order some
lighter fluid with that?
61
00:02:32,717 --> 00:02:33,675
That goes with the shake.
62
00:02:33,718 --> 00:02:36,199
Sorry to keep you in Spacedock.
63
00:02:36,243 --> 00:02:37,635
I've made use of the time, Captain.
64
00:02:37,679 --> 00:02:40,464
You've been looking into the
allegations against Spock.
65
00:02:40,508 --> 00:02:42,858
It's hard to comprehend,
let alone believe,
66
00:02:42,901 --> 00:02:44,642
that he murdered three people
67
00:02:44,686 --> 00:02:47,297
at the psychiatric
facility on Starbase Five.
68
00:02:47,341 --> 00:02:48,342
How's the crew taking it?
69
00:02:48,385 --> 00:02:49,908
They don't know the details.
70
00:02:49,952 --> 00:02:51,432
Only that he's in trouble.
71
00:02:53,347 --> 00:02:55,349
There's something else.
72
00:02:55,392 --> 00:02:57,394
Tell me.
73
00:02:57,438 --> 00:03:01,703
Starfleet's classified
his case Level One.
74
00:03:01,746 --> 00:03:04,184
Line officers don't usually
warrant that kind of scrutiny.
75
00:03:04,227 --> 00:03:06,838
It's unprecedented. Which is
why I've done a little digging.
76
00:03:06,882 --> 00:03:08,100
Sanctioned?
77
00:03:08,144 --> 00:03:10,190
Better you don't know
the answer to that.
78
00:03:10,233 --> 00:03:12,322
Before I look at that,
79
00:03:12,366 --> 00:03:15,717
I need to know why you saw fit
to detour Federation protocols.
80
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,329
Something about this
investigation isn't adding up.
81
00:03:19,373 --> 00:03:21,897
I'm not letting him go without a fight.
82
00:03:21,940 --> 00:03:24,204
As usual, we agree.
83
00:03:24,247 --> 00:03:26,597
MALE OFFICER [OVER COMMS]:
Captain Pike to the ready room.
84
00:03:26,641 --> 00:03:29,687
I'm late for a briefing.
I'm glad you came.
85
00:03:29,731 --> 00:03:31,254
I'm sorry you can't stay longer.
86
00:03:31,298 --> 00:03:33,256
Next time.
87
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:34,866
Be careful, Captain.
88
00:03:34,910 --> 00:03:37,217
You, too, Number One.
89
00:03:43,745 --> 00:03:46,051
We should give it a name.
90
00:03:46,095 --> 00:03:47,792
[CHUCKLES]: Other than May.
91
00:03:49,098 --> 00:03:52,101
I know it looks like a blob,
92
00:03:52,144 --> 00:03:54,277
but this is one of the most
sophisticated life-forms
93
00:03:54,321 --> 00:03:55,800
I've ever encountered.
94
00:03:55,844 --> 00:03:58,890
It has sentience, intention.
95
00:03:58,934 --> 00:04:02,285
Tilly, the mycelial network
doesn't just connect life.
96
00:04:02,329 --> 00:04:04,113
It contains it.
97
00:04:04,156 --> 00:04:05,506
It's an incubator.
98
00:04:05,549 --> 00:04:08,813
You mean, like, um... like a home?
99
00:04:13,644 --> 00:04:17,257
I've been wondering why
it appeared to me as May,
100
00:04:17,300 --> 00:04:18,867
which got me thinking about the real May
101
00:04:18,910 --> 00:04:20,825
that I met when I was, um, 14.
102
00:04:22,349 --> 00:04:25,439
I was, um... I was a weird kid.
103
00:04:25,482 --> 00:04:27,963
[CHUCKLES]: You know?
Like, not a lot of friends
104
00:04:28,006 --> 00:04:31,967
and nobody who really
believed in me, including me.
105
00:04:32,010 --> 00:04:35,753
But... she did.
106
00:04:35,797 --> 00:04:40,323
She wanted to connect to
me, and she tried so hard.
107
00:04:40,367 --> 00:04:42,107
But I don't really think
108
00:04:42,151 --> 00:04:43,805
I was the friend to her that she needed.
109
00:04:43,848 --> 00:04:45,415
I'm certain
110
00:04:45,459 --> 00:04:47,983
you were much kinder than
you give yourself credit for.
111
00:04:48,026 --> 00:04:50,333
You always are.
112
00:04:50,377 --> 00:04:52,770
Thank you, but...
113
00:04:52,814 --> 00:04:56,252
I didn't even know she died.
114
00:04:56,296 --> 00:04:58,080
I feel like I took her for granted.
115
00:04:58,123 --> 00:05:00,952
That girl who thought I was special.
116
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,172
Oh!
117
00:05:07,045 --> 00:05:10,222
I've cross-referenced what
we're calling the Red Angel
118
00:05:10,266 --> 00:05:11,485
with all known winged
119
00:05:11,528 --> 00:05:13,356
and avian life-forms in the Federation.
120
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,662
So far, I've found nothing.
121
00:05:14,705 --> 00:05:15,880
[WHIRRING]
122
00:05:15,924 --> 00:05:17,882
Sorry.
123
00:05:17,926 --> 00:05:20,668
The universal translator
sometimes has trouble
124
00:05:20,711 --> 00:05:23,192
reconfiguring my
lingual clicks and pops.
125
00:05:23,235 --> 00:05:26,500
My answer to you was, "Nothing
in the known universe."
126
00:05:26,543 --> 00:05:28,502
Which might suggest it's not a species.
127
00:05:28,545 --> 00:05:31,374
- Maybe one of a kind.
- A mutation.
128
00:05:31,418 --> 00:05:33,376
Well, whatever it is,
figuring out how it's connected
129
00:05:33,420 --> 00:05:35,726
to these signals will
help us identify it.
130
00:05:35,770 --> 00:05:38,076
If only we knew what it needs.
131
00:05:39,426 --> 00:05:41,689
Commander Nhan, USS Enterprise.
132
00:05:41,732 --> 00:05:42,864
Glad to be here.
133
00:05:42,907 --> 00:05:44,387
Welcome back aboard. [SNIFFLES]
134
00:05:44,431 --> 00:05:45,867
Could you pass the salt?
135
00:05:45,910 --> 00:05:47,695
Commander Saru,
136
00:05:47,738 --> 00:05:49,392
- can you shed any light?
- [COUGHS]
137
00:05:49,436 --> 00:05:51,394
My apologies.
138
00:05:51,438 --> 00:05:53,396
I woke up this morning fighting
139
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,050
an acute rhino virus.
140
00:05:55,093 --> 00:05:56,225
So you have a cold.
141
00:05:56,268 --> 00:05:59,750
I had a cold last week, which sucked.
142
00:06:01,012 --> 00:06:03,928
Saurian. Six nasal canals.
143
00:06:03,972 --> 00:06:05,930
It happens to the best of us, Linus.
144
00:06:05,974 --> 00:06:07,932
Everyone to your stations.
Detmer, set a course
145
00:06:07,976 --> 00:06:10,500
for 108 mark four. Maximum warp.
146
00:06:10,544 --> 00:06:11,675
Aye, sir. [SARU COUGHING]
147
00:06:11,719 --> 00:06:13,895
Mr. Saru, you look like hell.
148
00:06:13,938 --> 00:06:15,331
You've been burning the
candle at both ends lately.
149
00:06:15,375 --> 00:06:16,419
Go get some rest.
150
00:06:16,463 --> 00:06:18,682
As you wish, sir.
151
00:06:18,726 --> 00:06:22,425
Burnham. A word.
152
00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:26,647
I understand your first officer
is on her way to Spacedock.
153
00:06:26,690 --> 00:06:28,649
Was her visit informative?
154
00:06:28,692 --> 00:06:30,302
Number One is very resourceful.
155
00:06:30,346 --> 00:06:33,131
People have a tendency to
end up owing her favors.
156
00:06:33,175 --> 00:06:35,264
She uncovered
157
00:06:35,307 --> 00:06:37,484
some classified information
158
00:06:37,527 --> 00:06:38,702
on Starbase Five.
159
00:06:38,746 --> 00:06:41,139
That is the warp
signature of the shuttle
160
00:06:41,183 --> 00:06:43,359
that Spock stole from
the psychiatric facility.
161
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:45,622
I put us on an intercept course.
162
00:06:45,666 --> 00:06:48,495
We should reach his position
in the next few hours.
163
00:06:53,195 --> 00:06:55,284
S-Sir,
164
00:06:55,327 --> 00:06:57,765
after everything that's happened,
165
00:06:57,808 --> 00:07:01,508
I need to excuse myself
from seeing Spock.
166
00:07:01,551 --> 00:07:03,423
Not sure I follow.
167
00:07:03,466 --> 00:07:05,642
I don't want to make
things worse for him.
168
00:07:05,686 --> 00:07:10,473
He's a fugitive, whatever
the circumstances.
169
00:07:10,517 --> 00:07:14,346
And as Amanda suggested...
170
00:07:14,390 --> 00:07:16,610
[SIGHS] I'm probably the last person
171
00:07:16,653 --> 00:07:19,482
who should insert
themselves into this problem.
172
00:07:19,526 --> 00:07:22,746
- I disagree.
- He is lost, Captain.
173
00:07:22,790 --> 00:07:26,184
You are better suited to help him.
174
00:07:27,795 --> 00:07:30,014
I've thought this through.
175
00:07:30,058 --> 00:07:34,497
Please, trust me.
176
00:07:34,541 --> 00:07:37,500
My abiding trust in you
177
00:07:37,544 --> 00:07:40,155
doesn't eclipse the mission at hand.
178
00:07:40,198 --> 00:07:42,026
Facing whatever happened to Spock,
179
00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:44,289
