Hey, you know what’s a great idea? Performing a destructive scientific experiment right next to the spore drive during an evacuation! Bri and Ken find much of the tension in Ruon Tarka’s visit to Discovery to be incredibly contrived, and we have to dig to determine how a prison break develops our heroes. We are however intrigued by how two “struggling” crewmen are each handling the unreasonable expectations they’ve set themselves to save everyone.
