Archer's back in legal trouble episodes after he was in legal trouble! Matt and Andy applaud some fantastic prequelizing, and Matt finally gets to Rura Penthe, although it seems like it's pretty easy to escape? The stairs are right there.

Or rather, all our questions about whether there were any deeper meanings, plots, or motivations then were being presented have been answered - and that answer is no. Burnham gets one more crying scene for the road, super-genius-always-one-step-ahead Tarka has a quick emotional turnaround, and Tilly teaches some cadets how to give a speech in a crisis.

The end is nigh (of this Disco season)! And Matt and Andy find much of this episode satisfying (even though they can't stop wondering if any of it was worth it)! Meanwhile, the Prez puts together an odd group to meet up with Species Ten-C, the bridge crew pop in as experts on how to decipher their language, and Saru and Burnham yell a cleansing primal scream which many of us feel we might need to take part in at the end of this season.

We promise this is not meant to drag or shame anyone - all the folks who are Discovery boosters have valid takes. This poll is mostly to get a more accurate sense of if the vibe from our crew of "the end of Disco season 4 was good/great and/or tied stuff together in a satisfying way!" was a vocal minority or a generally held opinion.

Trip fends off an affair with Phlox's wife while the Vulcans in this period are once again shown to be total dicks. Matt and Andy discuss if Archer is capable of more tones of voice than two.

We're back in a cantina/casino, but this time it's okay. Owo gets called up to the major character big leagues to kick some ass, Book and Michael's old buddy really lays on the "Made Up Word, Word We Know" game thick, and Andy and Matt wonder if Disco is just slotting in characters like Vance to fill whatever plot need they have, switching Vance and Rillak's personalities as necessary.
