Discovery 3x02 - "Far From Home"

[lizbee]

Bit late this week, sorry -- for some reason moving house has really impacted my fannish work. I need to reassess my priorities.

Okay, I admit I do not watch this show tremendously carefully, but I feel like I missed something regarding Georgiou being referred to as Commander. Did the show ever explain that, given that they were pretending to outsiders that she was still Prime-Universe Captain Georgiou? Or have they just given up on that completely, since all of Disco was in the Mirror Universe, in which case I'm kind of surprised they accord her the honour of a rank at all?

Gosh, I loved watching Saru and Tilly together. Saru has grown so far from his initial fearfulness, and he's so good at noticing and supporting similar anxieties.

[lizbee]

I wondered the same thing! I've decided that, in the absence of instructions to the contrary, Saru has made the executive decision to demote her, and is daring her to say something and thus suggest she cares about mere Starfleet titles.

lol I love this 😂

[tellitslant]

Ha, I approve of this take :D

OMG. 😂 Unless and until this is explicitly counteracted on screen, I'm accepting this headcanon.

I LOVE the push and pull between them. It delights me. I love so much that "dinner" is holding his own against the ex-Emperor, and also that Pippa is, idk, being a useful horrible goose? Largely out of attachment to Michael, but I'm glad she doesn't seem to want to run the ship (or even the universe, at the moment). She's more fun kicking people inna head (and I think she thinks so too).

Hunh, maybe she got the rank of Commander when they recruited her into Section 31?

[tellitslant]

That was my initial thought, but then anyone who encountered her through S31 would have needed an explanation as to why 'Captain' Georgiou got demoted... right?

[kore]

Heh, I'm a lazy viewer because details like that tend not to bother me I guess....
