The Discovery has landed in the Mirror Universe and they must find their way back home. Tyler deals with his PTSD. The doctor continues his treatment of Stamets.
Captain Tilly was great, I loved how Tilly learned to deal with the situation. This was a good episode showing her continued growth as a character in the show.
Lorka doing a Scotty accent as Chief Engineer was a nice touch.
USS Defiant again.
Oh c'mon. I was just starting to get to like the doctor. What the hell Tyler!
I knew Tyler was some sort of Klingon spy, I had my suspicions early on and the constant cutting to his interactions with Lorka while in Klingon prison alluded to it. What I didn't figure was that he could actually be a Klingon that had been mutilated into looking like a human.
I am surprised that they did the Mirror Universe so early. Enterprise tackled the Mirror Universe late in season four. The Original Series did it in the second season. We're in the back-half of Discovery's first season and they've already hit the Mirror Universe.
The identity of the Emperor is being hidden and it feels like they are trying too hard. I have a feeling that the Emperor is Philippa Georgiou.
