Review: Star Trek: Discovery, "Whistlespeak"

Last week, Burnham and Book went on an adventure together, so this week, we get Burnham and Tilly. (No complaints from Rayner this time about Michael going on mission, I guess a pre-warp planet is less dangerous than a scary space cloud.) The two have a long history together, and in theory I like the idea of Burnham spending one on one time with each of the characters who’s important to her before the series ends. Of course, after this week, we’re pretty much down to “people who are no longer on the series” for potential bonding partners, so maybe “Whistlespeak” is the end of this particular format.
