It is the end. And the end. And the end! Will Michael find the progenitor's technology? Will Moll be able to bring L'ak back to life? Will Rayner and DISCO be able to hold off the Breen? Will Saru be able to engage in diplomacy with Primarch Tahal? And most importantly: is there going to be a wedding at the end? Come for the science fiction, the pew-pew, and the fate of all the galaxy -- stay for a cute wedding sequence. Hope everyone you love got out alive. It's time to say goodbye, old friends. Live long -- and prosper.

A race to find the progenitor's tech between Discover and the newly minted Moll's Dreadnaught. DiSCO gets there about a moment before Moll, only to spend a few minutes indulging in wonder get scooped by the Breen.

To the Archive! A beautiful, harry potter-esque, castle-in-the-sky full of books and things.  There, Book finds a piece of Kwejian and Michael finds an artifact in Dr. Derex's book Labyrinths of the Mind. When she touches it, she is transported to a literal figurative labyrinth and her body goes catatonic.

Finally, Moll and L'ak are finally caught. L'ak is still in pretty bad shape after the fisticuffs on the ISS Enterprise. When they are brought to Federation HQ on Discovery, it is just as a "primarch" of the Breen Imperium is headed there to collect the prisoners and their blood-bounty (see: "erigah").

The penultimate clue to the "progenitor tech" leads Discovery to a pre-warp, pre-industrial world called Halem'no, where the denizens speak via voice *and* a form of "whistlespeak." Michael and Tilly go undercover as Halemnians and have to run a race up a mountain to gain access to a temple where the fifth clue may be hidden! In a classic Trek turn of events, the race's reward is not exactly what it seems and the clue is not exactly where it seems -- and, briefly, all hell breaks loose.

Discovery figures out where Moll and L'ak have gone. It was right in front of their faces the whole time! A blinking wormhole made of exotic matter that leads into interdimensional space. No biggie. Michael and Book head in to find the next clue, Rayner has the conn, and the science folks work to find ways to keep up communications and/or get the ship back.

The time is getting VERY *wimey* in this episode of Discovery. Just as the crew heads to the coordinates they got from the ancient Trill host Jinaal scratching their heads at an empty pocket of space, Moll's trap is sprung. Apparently, she put a "time bug" on their ship which, once it connected to the ship's engineering, causes them to hop about willy-nilly in time. Thus, are Michael and Rayner sent on a merry chase through Discovery's past -- and one harrowing presentiment of their future.

Everyone is simply trying to settle in. Book is settling in as a "consultant" on Discovery as they hunt down the map pieces to the Progenitors' "treasure." First Officer Raynor (nee Captain of the Antares) is trying integrate with the DISCO crew... sorta of. And the consciousness of an 800 year old Trill scientist is trying (and succeeding) to settle into the body of Dr. Hugh Culber so that he can lead and/or mystically cajole Michael and Book toward the hidden second piece of the puzzle. 

The hunt is on for the hiding place of the Progenitors' tech. The couriers/outlaws Moll and L'ak have a head start on the Federation — but the Federation has DISCO! Captain Burnham is excited be off on an adventure to uncover the origins of sentient life in the galaxy, but changes are afoot. Book is back on board. Tilly is back on board! Joy is back on board the starship Discovery.
