As Burnham calls Vance, the episode sets it up that this is the only way that Starfleet can survive this situation - although why that is the case simply rings hollow. The Discovery is surrounded by a small fleet of vessels, yet it easily manages to outmaneuver all of them to continue firing on the base. She clearly has little faith in the defensive capabilities of Starfleet's base of operations. It feels desperate (nothing wrong with that to be honest) but it also feels a bit unusual that she would offer. ![]() Burnham, recognizing that Osyrra is just fine with blowing a hole in Starfleet HQ, hurries to tell her she will speak to the Admiral, to convince him to let them go. Join us now for a look at the ups and downs for this week, starting with the downs. There are a lot of balls in the air going into this final episode of the season - how to they all land and are those landings satisfying? The truth is.yes and no. A Trill hologram in Starfleet? Sounds amazing.Meanwhile, Saru and Culber and, unbeknownst to them, Adira, are still on the dilithium planet with Su'kal. If there's one huge plot point to watch in Discovery Season 4, it's almost certainly the return of Gray. Will Gray be a fully holographic character? If so, it wouldn't be the first time Star Trek has had an intelligent (and brilliant!) hologram as a full member of the crew. But, the second, and much more compelling plot point will surely be the full return of Gray. ![]() First, we might learn a lot more about how the Tal symbiont is different from other Trill we have known (like Dax). This seems to mean two things that could happen in Season 4. The intelligent holographic system on the crashed Kelpien ship somehow recognized the consciousness of Gray, even though, in theory, Gray only exists inside the memory of the Tal symbiont. ![]() With all respect to Captain Michael Burnham's big new job (hooray!), the biggest news in the Discovery Season 3 finale was the sudden return of Gray (Ian Alexander) with the new revelation that certain holographic technology could allow Gray's consciousness to be "seen." When Adira beamed down to the surface of the dilithium planet, they were shocked to see Gray again, but even more shocked that Saru and Culber could see him, too! **SPOILER WARNING! Spoilers ahead for Star Trek: Discovery Season 3, specifically the finale, "That Hope Is You Part 2"** Here are the five biggest questions created by the Star Trek: Discovery Season 3 finale, and how Season 4 might address them! Let's fly! ![]() "That Hope Is You Part 2," wrapped-up some pretty big stuff - from the mystery of the Burn, to the fate of the Emerald Chain - but some character-oriented plot points are still fairly huge question marks for Season 4. If anyone was ever in doubt that Discovery was "real" Star Trek, this season, and this finale of Discovery should give the haters some pause.īut, that doesn't mean there aren't still a few loose ends floating around in the DISCO-verse. There's a classic Next Generation-esque vibe to the episode "That Hope Is You Part 2," with a touch of the open-ended adventure of The Original Series. If DISCO has spent the last few years being something that feels like "not your parents' Star Trek," the last few moments of the Season 3 finale will make you think, well, maybe this is a little bit like my parents' Star Trek after all. This time, Discovery's season finale ends with boundless optimism and a renewed sense of purpose. Unlike the massive cliffhanger of Season 2, the ending of Star Trek: Discovery Season 3 didn't shove the crew into a wormhole and leave us wondering what would happen when they came out on the other side.
