Previously on
Star Trek: Discovery...

Control will not stop coming.

Eventually,
Leland will find you.

Ergo, Discovery's
very existence

is the problem.

Discovery's
shields are up.

It's protecting itself.

Sphere's data has
already merged

with Discovery.
Options.

We know we can't delete
the data.

Nor, it seems,
can we destroy Discovery.

As long as Discovery
exists here and now,

this will never be over.

Discovery has to go
to the future.

We have the technical designs
from Section 31.

We can attempt to rebuild it.
Do it.

Once the Enterprise
catches up with us,

you're happy, Hugh.

NICOLA
Admiral, Captain Pike,

there's something
you need to see.

And then there were five.

Commander Stamets,

you will jump us to that signal.

Class M planet, Xahea.

Really? Xahea?

Tilly!

I know the queen of Xahea.

So, you want to use the suit
to travel through time

with this ship flying behind you, yes?
Yes.

There is just one problem.

Continuous regeneration
of energy will ultimately

burn out the crystal.

It's a one-way trip.

You're not coming, are you?

I wish I could say yes.

Attention, all vessels.

Leland's fleet has arrived.

Leland and his ships will
give us one hell of a fight.

We are surrounded.

All enemy vessels
armed and ready.

Shields up.
Prepare for battle.

Battle stations, report.

Shields at maximum, sir.

Weapons armed and ready,
Captain.

Transmit to all ships.

This is Captain Pike.

We have one job:

get Commander Burnham and
Discovery through the wormhole.

Section 31 is in our way.

Once Burnham launches
in the suit,

Second Squadron
will match course and speed

to cover her
and defend her perimeter.

Squadrons Three and Four will
be the front line of defense

against the Section 31 fleet.

You will lead the attack
and draw their fire

to give us the time we need.

Enterprise will maintain fire
on the fleet

to cause distraction
for as long as we can.

But as soon as Burnham
is detected out there,

we have to keep her safe.

All shuttles and pods,
use attack formation Gamma Six.

Squadrons One and Three,
coordinate positions

to disrupt and target
all main enemy vessels.

This is Starfleet.

Get it done.

Mr. Saru, ETA on that suit.

The components are
being synthesized

and assembled as we speak.

Don't adjust
the composite automatically.

I'll do it manually after each
piece is cleared for assembly.

I'm not detecting
any micro-variances.

No, I need a surgical spanner,

not a standard
engineering coupler.

Stop. Look me in the eyes.

The silicon injectors
need to be purged

after each binding is molded.
Watch me.

The bayonet joint on this
oxygen sensor's wide open.

Are you trying
to kill her?

Oh, shit.
Get off the assembly.

I got it.
Sorry, Commander.

High speed, low drag, Commander.
The longer it takes her

to open that wormhole,
the fewer make it home. SARU Yes, sir.

What's the intel on how much
perimeter space she'll need

to get far enough away
from that wormhole?

Commander Burnham
needs to remain

at the outermost radius
of the battle

at .0004 arc-seconds.
In English, please.

I can't blow a path
through what you're saying.

Tight enough so none
of the Section 31 ships

get pulled into the future,
loose enough so none of our guys

get destroyed by
the event horizon.

Lieutenant Spock will remain on
comms throughout to guide her.

Reno, where are we
with the time crystal?

Four minutes, 18 seconds away
until fully charged.

Can you cut that in half?

Violate the basic laws
of physics?

Uh, no.

Commander, we've scanned
the Section 31 armada.

There's only one life sign:
Captain Leland's.

The rest of the ships
are empty.

Drones. Nasty ones.

Lieutenant Bryce, have you had
any success reaching Starfleet?

Subspace relays are
still down, Commander.

Attempting to circumvent,
but we're still being jammed.

It is just us.

Any, uh, words of wisdom?

"Be extremely subtle,

"even to the point
of formlessness.

"Be extremely mysterious,

even to the point
of soundlessness."

"Thereby you can
be the director

of your opponent's fate."

I'm surprised a Kelpien,
of all beings,

has studied Sun Tzu.

I am surprised a Terran
is surprised by anything.

Incoming hail.

It's Leland, sir.

You will see a human face.

It is not a human being.

Am I clear?

Yes, sir.
Put it through.

Leland, we were just
talking about you.

Everybody hates you.

Congratulations.

You know why I'm here.

Give me what I've come for,

or die for it.

By authority granted me under
the Articles of the Federation

and Starfleet Charter,

I order you
to surrender your vessels.

No terms, no deals.

Last warning.

Transmit the data to me,

or you'll be destroyed.

By my count, we have
over 200 vessels,

and you might have 30.

Count again.

get out of there.

Captain, listen,

get obliterated.

What?

I thought these drones
looked off-key.

They have a refracted lattice

You can see it
in the wave patterns.

They can't be

Then he'll break
Discovery down for parts.

Do you have anything
relevant to offer?

Invite him aboard.

Whatever you have in mind,

this is not
a two-pronged mission.

The first priority
is to get

Discovery to safety
with Commander Burnham.

For you, perhaps.

You should know me

I'll pilot a shuttle

Prepare to lower

Understood, Lieutenant.
Captain Pike,

we are preparing
to lower aft shields.

Cover fire would be
most appreciated.

We got you, Saru.

All vessels.
Yes, Captain.

We've calculated
that Commander Burnham

will need two minutes
and 47 seconds to reach

safe distance
and open the wormhole.

All squadrons, form
a tactical escort around her

on her path
and screen enemy fire.

I want a cocoon around her until
she gets to her destination.

Burnham reaches her target.

Commander, sensors are
showing that something

beamed aboard

He's going for
the Sphere data.

Everybody, stay here.
Like hell.

Sir.

Sensors show Captain Leland
beamed aboard Discovery.

We'd have to lower our own
shields to beam a team on board.

Discovery
would have to lower theirs.

We can't do it,

I will override

Aye, Captain.
I want them standing by for repair.

Lieutenant Amin, can we seal off

torpedo landed?

Only one of the
blast shields'll drop, Captain.

The other one's jammed.

Lieutenant Nicola, do we have
anyone from Munitions available?

All occupied, Admiral.

I'll fix the door on-site.

Get me a PADD.

Number One, I'm with you.

We'll have to disarm

Figure out what kind of weapon

we're dealing with
and send me the schematics.

Yes, ma'am.

Shield-emitter in zones five
and seven are damaged.

We'll break into pieces

if we go into the wormhole
without shields.

If we even get there.

Come on, Burnham.

Spock, the navigation interface
still won't let me set

a destination point
in the future.

Without a destination point,

we will not be able
to open the wormhole.

Michael.
No.

Nothing.

If I set the signals,
why can't I move us forward?

There have been seven signals

Why would I bring us

We're being hailed,
Commander.

Put it through.
Yes, sir.

Brother.

Siranna.

I received your message.

I will never again
let you fight alone.

You...

have learned to pilot a fighter.

We were on our way
when one of your crew

hailed us to unify our efforts.

Who?

Captain, we're being hailed
by the Klingons.

On screen.

Sorry it took us a while
to get here, Captain.

Calvary arrived just in time.

I see you've brought
some new friends.

Not the term I would choose,
Captain.

However, the Klingon Empire
will always

fight to preserve our future.

Works for me.

The D7 will arrive
momentarily, Captain.

Please transmit
tactical analysis

of all enemy
vessels to us.

Stand by for transfer.

Siranna, the drones
have altered course

to intercept your fleet.

Promise me you will be safe.

I can promise you
that I will fight

as a Kelpien, Saru.

Warriors of Kaminar,

hold your course
and calculate target locks.

SARU
All ships.

The Klingons and Kelpiens
have joined our fight.

Transmit encrypted data
on the enemy fleet

and advise all squad commanders

to coordinate their efforts
with our new allies.

Michael,
the Ba'ul ships

arrived here piloted
by the Kelpiens

because your signal led Discovery to Kaminar.
Not now, Spock.

Yes, now. Precisely now.

The signal's purpose was not
simply to liberate the Kelpiens

but to prepare them for this.
For this very moment.

You used each signal
to lead Discovery

to an element we would need
to win this battle.

Starting with Reno
on the asteroid.

And to Boreth,
to acquire the time crystal.

To Xahea to find the one woman

in all the universe
who could power it.

And to Terralysium
to identify safe harbor

once we're through
the wormhole.

I saw us fail.

I saw everyone die.

The crystal showed you
a possible future.

To avoid it.

We assumed I jumped
from somewhere in the future

to set the signals,
we didn't know from where.

I jumped from here.

From this moment.

That is correct.

In order for us to push forward,
you must go back

and set the events of the past
in motion,

which you have not yet done.

Right.

Because we've been stuck
in an open loop

in this time, this time.

I have all the pieces
to close it.

Once you do,
Control cannot evolve.

So I'll go back to the asteroid
and set the first signal

and then set all the rest again.

They will lead you back here.

And then do you believe
we'll be able to go

to the future we want?

Of that, I cannot be certain.

So you're asking me
to take a leap of faith.

One that is only logical.

Unable to locate Sphere data.

I know where it is.

Leland, you look well.

For a couple of batteries
and a data core

stuffed in a meat sack.

Kind of like an A.I. sausage.
Ew.

Women, stop talking.

Remember this?

That's a quantum signal
amplifier.

I gave it to you
to transfer

the Sphere data
to my ship.

I assume you're holding it
now to demonstrate...

Why you won't find
the Sphere data anywhere here.

Where can I access my data?

Your data?
Hmm.

So many fun ways
to answer that question.

Torpedo's in there.

It's safe to enter.

Number One, status update.

On-site, Captain.

The blast door is jammed.

Its release mechanism
is fried.

I'm trying to override
the primary circuits

and reroute through
secondary relays.

Admiral, how are things
on your end?

Bad.

Define "bad," please, Admiral.

Secondary detonation's
already been triggered.

I'd say about 15 minutes before
it takes out half the ship.

What about the
injured on deck 12?

We get them stable,
we get them out. You got it?

On it.

Commander, I'm...

Paul?

Hi.

Hugh?
Hi.

But...

I know you're in a lot of pain.

Paul,

your injuries

are pretty severe.
I'm going to induce coma.

You'll be fine.

Just listen to my voice.
You can hear me.

I thought I could make
my home on Enterprise.

You're doing fine.

Then I realized that,
uh, you're my home.

So I came back.

Everything...

always...
came back around to you.

I'm just sorry it took me
so long to see it.

So you go to sleep now, okay?

And you let me take care of you.

I'm your family.

Wherever we go from here...

...we go together.

I've set all my jumps.

All five. I think...

The future is still
unwritten, Michael.

The outcome can still change.

Spock!

Go, Michael! Now!

doing so. Not in this battle.

Not with the amount of damage

I don't want to let go.

Neither... do I.

I already lost you once.

You never lost me, Michael.

it was possible to travel both.

You found me.

You saved me.

That wasn't me.

That was always in you.

you always have been, and I...

am afraid

that I will not find it
again without you.

Okay.

Listen to me.

Listen to me, little brother.

disappearance,

our long-range
sensors

detected high-energy
gamma rays

and gravitational waves
consistent with a

quantum singularity.
How do you explain that?

It is hardly my responsibility

to provide what your
own sensors could not.

I saw Discovery explode.
I saw Discovery explode.

They're all gone.

That's your
official response?

For the third time, yeah.

Anything else?

Commander
Michael Burnham,

do you think she...?
Do I think she what?

Commander Burnham

went above and beyond
before her death.

Section 31, whether
by error or corruption,

took its eye off the ball

and is indirectly responsible
for this catastrophe.

We agree the
organization requires

a radical overhaul

and perhaps far
more transparency.

With the loss
of Admiral Cornwell

and Captain Georgiou,

we'd like to remove the "Acting"
from your title,

make it permanent.

Wasn't so long ago,

I had to fight just to wear
a Starfleet uniform.

And that dedication,
coupled with a perspective,

Commander, it's safe to say
that your worldview

is uniquely suited

to the dualities
intrinsic to Section 31.

Have you eliminated Control
entirely?

We have.

The destruction
of Discovery was tragic

but does in and of itself
resolve the issue.

Even more radical steps
must be taken

to ensure that type of scenario
never repeats itself.

I'm eager to hear your
recommendations, Lieutenant.

Regulation 157, Section Three,

requires Starfleet officers
to abstain

from participating
in historical events.

Any residual trace or knowledge
of Discovery's data,

or the time suit,
offers a foothold

for those who might not see
how critical,

how deeply critical,
that directive is.

Therefore, to insure the
Federation never finds itself

facing the same danger,
all officers

remaining with knowledge
of these events must be

ordered never to speak
of Discovery, its spore drive,

or her crew again.

Under penalty of treason.

Thank you,
Mr. Spock.

We'll take it under advisement.

Personal log.

Stardate: 1201.7.

124 days have passed

since your disappearance.

It has been difficult,

but we've managed
not to reveal the truth

of Discovery's fate
to Starfleet.

To have done so was to risk

rendering your sacrifice
meaningless.

If we learned anything,

we learned we're not yet ready
to learn everything.

Mother and Father
are diplomatically immune

from interrogation,

and they fully understand
our silence

is meant to keep you safe.

We have sworn never
to speak your name

in the presence of others.

Yet I feel you with me, always.

With every moment, I grow
more sure-footed in this...

in-between place.

More certain
of who I am becoming.

You teach me, sister, even now.

Every night I look to the stars
for your signal,

and every night
I have to remind myself

of the scientific truth
that time is relative.

124 days for one

is the blink of an eye
for another.

It is difficult
to reconcile, logically.

But to paraphrase
an Earth physicist,

"The universe

is under no obligation
to make sense to me."

I believe that
you were successful.

I choose to believe it.

That is the only gift

I have left to give you.

It may not be logical, but I am

proud to bear it.

PIKE
Mr. Spock to the bridge.

You've detected
an anomaly, Captain?

Number One's
running it now,

but, uh,

looks like it's
in the Beta Quadrant.

That's correct, sir.

And we have
confirmation.

The location
of the seventh signal.

51,000 light-years
from our present position.

I'll run
the analytics.

Where to, Number One?

You're the captain,

Captain.

I hear we discovered
a new moon at Edrin Two.

That we did, sir.

Thank you, Number One.

In that case,

let's give her a spin.

That sound good to you,
Mr. Spock?

Yes, Captain.

Let us see
what the future holds.

Ready for warp, sir.

Hit it.
