Top 3 Things You Missed in Star Trek Discovery Mid Season Premiere


okay this isn’t one of the things but
Tyler is definitely a Klingon and sooner
or later he’s gonna end up in Lorca’s
office with the Tribble and it’s gonna
give him away just like with Darvin in
the original series episode trouble with
tribbles they don’t like you mr. Darwin

Star Trek discovery is back with
probably the best episode so far and
there’s more to come
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the best
surprises and Easter eggs you might have
missed in season 1 episode 10 despite
yourself number 3 directed by Jonathan
Frakes also known as commander riker
everyone knows Jonathan Frakes as the
actor who played the next generations
dashing commander Will Riker but ever
since the 90s
Frakes has been directing as well with
not only Star Trek episodes under his
belt but feature films as well including
1996’s Star Trek first contact
Frakes has also directed other sci-fi
shows like agents of shield and very
appropriately horville despite yourself
Marx freaks directorial debut on Star
Trek disco maybe that’s why the episode
was so good long live the Empire number
2 the Scottish engineer opening channel
audio holy belay that when the USS
discovery has an audio-only exchange
with the ISS Cooper captain Lorca can’t
be the one to respond because in this
universe he isn’t the ship’s captain
that’s me that’s me
instead Tillie needs to pose as the
captain but after an awkward and poorly
improvised back and forth with Cooper’s
captain Tillie turns the comms over to
Lorca who poses as the chief engineer
Lorca disguises his voice by using a
thick and not very accurate Scottish
accent how you doing captain squared
away here we’ve got trouble with a
visual emitters and the starboard
nacelle
but tweaking we’ll be good to go this is
obviously a nod to commander Scotty the
chief engineer from the original series
Enterprise bloody don’t you think you
should rephrase that before we get to
our top moment here are some of the best
lines from this week’s episode to join
us mr. Tom I know it was only a yellow
alert and you talk as little as possible
that’s good that might be a lot harder
might have you noticed that I talk a lot
defy your every inspector if you greeted
me that way Connor I cut out your tongue
and use it to lick my boots
number one the USS Defiant no not that
defiant
the Defiant registry and CC 176 for
maybe an obscure ship but it has quite
the history in Star Trek lore first
appearing in the original series classic
episode the Tholian web it vanished
without a trace the ship eventually
resurfaced 37 real-life years later in
the enterprise episode in a mirror
darkly the Tholians quantum dated a
piece of the hull the ship is not only
from another universe it’s from another
time about a hundred years into the
future
turns out the ship went back through
time and jumped into the evil dimension
where mirror Captain Archer and his crew
discovered it and brought it into
service for the Terran Empire the ship
is mentioned again and despite yourself
and we may even get to see it in person
in a future episode here’s hoping some
of the classic uniforms are stowed away
somewhere for Michael and Luca – where I
found it in captain – Atropa people had
some strange ideas about uniforms do you
