This episode continues the success presented in this season's opener. Now, we see the last mission Saru will have as the first officer of Discovery, where him and Burnham head to the planet Lyrek. We are confronted with the growth of these character's relationship, from rivalry to fear, and now to the deepest friendship. We are heading into a season of memories.
First if all, the delivery of comedy in this episode was amazing! I really enjoy how they have infused comedy into this season to confront the dark and deeply philosophical themes they are exploring. The season provides a fast-paced adventure to cover these deep meanings, which allows the mind to dig deep into understanding these episodes.
We learn the nickname "Action Saru" in this episode, which is a carrying example of Saru's attitude in this episode. He explores the fear he once felt universally. He explores the risks he must take in order to survive the necropolis with Burnham.
As we try to find the progenitor's technology, we are again pressed with great references to TNG. We dive deeper into Romulan culture and tradition. While we look for the answer, we see what has been made because of the action. We see what the universe has become because of the Progenitor's actions.
This episode does a great job of developing the story of this season, connecting and reflecting upon Saru and Burnham, and keeping the pace and tempo at least allegro. Let's see if our hope is not in vain.
