Summary
A new clue leads Discovery to a dangerous expedition on the planet Trill.
Our Take
A middling hour that coasts on its one big idea: a body-swap episode where the guest gets more screen time than half the regular cast. Wilson Cruz does solid work carrying the emotional weight, but the away mission itself feels padded, and the villains barely register. Fine background viewing, though longtime fans will enjoy the Trill worldbuilding.
