This week, we are treated with an episode that continues the story of the Breen. We learn more about their political situation and the importance L'ak holds to their survival. This episode does this very well, providing suspense and great scenes that unite characters and build a strong story. However, it does have a few flaws.
Why not just lock the sickbay doors? That doesn't make L'ak and Moll's escape impossible, but it makes it much less likely. Instead, they post two guards who were taken in just a few seconds by Moll. It isn't the smartest idea...
However, bringing Nhan back was a great move. Now, the purpose was not for ending the series and bringing cohesion, but it works that way in the end. She provides a great supporting character role and a great way to unite the seasons together.
The tag team of Tilly, Reno, and Adira worked really well. I have never been a fan of Adira, but they weren't bad here. The lines showed much improvement compared to last week. I do disagree that they show great skill and possibility, though.
This episode has some minor flaws, but they are vastly covered by a mystifying and excellent story. We are treated to a spectacle of possibilities. Now, we go on to search for the final clue in an archive, which I imagine will have something to do with labyrinths (since the next episode is called such). Whether that be inside the book or the archive, I do not know. But, whatever happens, this episode has rekindled my hope that Discovery will end on a good note. Let's fly.
