This guy walks up to you and slaps your gf's ass. What do?

Is it not that the Klingon's wanted to ensure no one had a time crystal, so go around killing anyone who has one?

I must say, of all the canon facts to establish, the fact that it's the KLINGONS that decided never to mess with time again and are the custodians of this kind of untapped power is one of the more bizarre ones.

He got melted?

not even that, Burnham suffered radiation burns when they built their really elaborate trap to capture the Red Angel suit and in the next episode her wounds were completely healed, they have ridiculous medical technology in one episode and can't do more than basic shit in another

keep in mind that this part of the lore was established in the 60s

i-it was a different kind of radiation!

Starfleet undergoes budget cuts after the events of STD, it's why he just gets a beep chair and the original ships are made out of cardboard.

Quads of truth but I'm going to go with Starfleet ending all cybernetic enhancement on humans after the events of this season - that Airiam was able to be taken control of by an AI introduces tactical weakness. Pike also has shown an aversion to the advances in technology, perhaps he didn't want to be put in a robot body given he also had seen what could happen to Airiam first hand. Civilians could still use this tech but not enlisted personnel. I admit this is just filling in the gaps created by the show for literally no reason, but that's what Trek fans have been doing for 50 years right?

It was though. In the Menagerie when they find out Pike was hit by delta rays the reaction from Bones I believe suggests this is the worst possible situation to be in.

Also, they didn't have MAGIC RED ANGEL BEAM to fix Pike immediately after the accident.

Which part? That Klingons hold the key to time travel but luckily don't abuse it?

FUCK leggots

what doesn't make much sense thou is the blinking light thing

Because if they gave him some kind of thought-to-speech translator it would just be AHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCK MY FUCKING FACE FEELS LIKE IT'S CONSTANTLY MELTING FUCKING SOMEONE KILL ME SOMEONE FUCKING KILL ME

So they gave him the blinking light thing instead.

Pike's fate makes zero sense in the Trek universe. Unfortunate fact, but because it's canon it has to be preserved. They could, of course, have just not touched it. Given Pike is gone at the end of this season we didn't actually need a scene where he finds out about his future and "sets it" with a magic rock.

>They could, of course, have just not touched it.
That's their biggest problem though. They simply can't help giving themselves legitimacy through constant references. If they could have just resisted that urge they could have set the show 100 years in the future and had pretty much no issue syncing up with canon. Klingons/uniforms/ships look different now? It's been 100 years, duh. Everyone knows about Section 31 now? It's been 100 years, duh. Ships use different propulsion methods? It's been 100 years, duh. I mean, even the Mirror Universe. In the 100 years since Nemesis the rebels defeated the Alliance and reestablished the Empire. But they just can't help legitimizing themselves by recasting original series characters and shoehorning them in.

I agree, they could have avoided all these issues easily from the start. I don't know why everyone thinks the Trek fanbase just want canon gaps filled in and not to go forward from Nemesis. They've finally worked out that might be something people want with the Picard show, but of course because Stewart is a Shakespeare Queen we're going to get the dark, tragic end of Picard that no one asked for.

Nah, I wish. They're just going to let the politics of the actor inform this interpretation of the character. Look, most of us know and acknowledge racism and sexism is bad. Just because someone doesn't agree with Progressive solutions to those problems doesn't mean they are complicit in those social ills.
I feel like we're going to either get some off the rails wacky last adventure or Picard is going to spend 40 minutes lecturing us about how horrible we are for allowing Donald Trump to be President ir Brexit to happen (through ham-handed metaphors of course).

disco is only good when it builds brigdes to the classic series. thats all I m excited for when I m watching it.

I'd rather watch TOS instead

because pike was injured in the 60s

Just think of how many little black girls it'll inspire to feel special! And dyslexics, paraplegics and homosexuals!

Discovery is the best thing ever to happen to Trek!! *takes a knee*

Tell him I loved him in Spawn.

Presumably, so did she if her warp capable shuttle fucking exploded leaving only her brain intact.

Simply having the time crystal wasn't the point, it was that they had tuned it and embued it with that supernova power so they could actually control it and use it to travel through time through their Ant Man suit.

The crystals on Boreth are guarded by those guardians, who I'd assume by the Klingon's strong ritualistic sense of honor would not not just allow anyone to take the crystals, but even if they did, they were just random as fuck time crystals.

>use crystals to control time itself
So new ageism is actually real in star trek?
