![]() Tarka and Book leave in Book's ship, intent on destroying the DMA's power source with a weapon Tarka has designed. This puts her in direct conflict with Book, with whom she is romantically involved. ![]() Zora agrees, and reveals the coordinates of where she has determined Species 10-C must be: outside the galactic barrier.īurnham convinces the council to choose a peaceful first contact. As a sentient being, Zora has the right to choose her own path, but must become a member of Starfleet. However, the Discovery personnel convinces Kovich that since Zora is a product of the sphere data evolving as it interacted with the ship's crew, she is actually a completely new life-form. Kovich ( David Cronenberg) arguing that since Starfleet has regulations against allowing a self-aware AI to remain in control of a starship, Zora's reasoning is not valid. On Discovery, another parallel debate finds the ever-mysterious operative Dr. She refuses to share the information on what they call Species 10-C out of her fear for the crew's safety. Meanwhile, Discovery's sentient computer, named Zora (a system that evolved from the "sphere data," information the crew retrieved from an ancient, advanced creature and went forward in time to keep out of the wrong hands), determines where the DMA must have originated. Tarka develops a model of the DMA's power source in the hopes of finding a way to stop the anomaly. When the roguish Risan scientist Ruon Tarka ( Shawn Doyle) joins Discovery to study the DMA, Book finds a kindred spirit. After investigating a subspace rift left behind in the DMA's wake, Discovery determines that where it goes, it leaves a toxic void drifting through space behind it.Īs a highly sensitive empath, Book struggles with his anger and grief. After the DMA inexplicably vanishes and then reappears about 1,000 light-years away, the Federation determines that only an extraordinarily advanced life form could have the technology to create and control such a thing. Most DSC episodes here average between 7 and 8, which I think is fair for this season.After a close call when what comes to be known as the Dark Matter Anomaly (or DMA, for the convenience of the show's writers) suddenly changes course, the Discovery crew works to hold the still-fragile Federation together. I think that doesn't count for this BBS though. I think that 'review bombing' and 'toxic fandom' are two very real things these days, and thus, ratings on the internet (negative or positive) are something you cannot take serious anymore, as they have become totally meaningless. What kind of person would do that.? I think there are many people that love DSC, that don't go on the internet and write about it in YT comment sections or whatever. I don't think 'normal people' go on the internet and put as many 1/10 ratings as they can on a show they hate. We cannot deny that there are large groups out there that disqualify DSC beforehand, and it has nothing to do with the quality of the show itself. Just look at what happened with the Rings of Power-trailer. ![]() I don't think this should be underestimated. Not just the Gatekeepers who see DSC as the bastardization of the 'old Trek', but there are also downright racist, alt-right groups out there that grade everything DSC 1/10 because: women are in command, people of colour are in command, there are gay people, transgenders, etc. ![]() DSC has become a target for many hate-groups. ![]()
