Previously on Star Trek: Discovery...

All hail her most Imperial Majesty,

mother of the Fatherland.

All hail the Emperor,

Philippa Georgiou Augustus
laponius Centaurius.

All hail the Emperor!

You're a fugitive wanted for my murder.

You attempted a coup
against the Emperor.

Listen to me.

I need you. You need you.

Your Georgiou is dead.

- Just a ghost.
- Captain Michael Burnham.

You brought us a gift?

Captain Gabriel Lorca.

In his universe,

that Stamets exploited the
network for his own gain.

- He's the one who corrupted it.
- There's no difference

between his network and our network.

It's just one.

And that's why the damage is spreading.

Eventually, everything
everywhere will be exterminated.

There's a clearing

in the forest.

That's how they go.

I'm sending you the coordinates
to the Emperor's ship now.

I would feel better
if Captain Lorca were the one

making this request for a rendezvous.

Trust me, so would I.

- Acknowledged.
- We'll see you soon.

You're sensitive to light.

Lorca is sensitive to light, too.

The Lorca I knew was my right hand.

I trusted him with you.

My so-called
captain's not from my universe.

He's from yours.

One year,

212 days of torture,

of agony, my friends,

my followers.

But I have returned to give
meaning to your suffering.

Today is the day we reclaim our empire.

Long live the Empire.
Long live the Empire.

Captain?

Welcome back, Commander Landry.

They told us you were dead.

And you believed them?

- Not for a second, sir.
- Sir.

Let's get you geared up.

Sir,

Charon has ten battalions of
Imperial guards on station.

I don't know how you got here,

or how you got us all out alive,
but we should withdraw, regroup.

We still have supporters
on several worlds.

The Emperor's ship is
exactly where we need to be.

I have been to another
universe and back.

You think I'd come all
this way without a plan?

Clear.

Stamets is gone.

Coward probably left at
the first sign of trouble.

All his research is still here.

I've known more than one Stamets,

and they both have one thing in common:

they love their work too much...

...to leave any of it behind!

Hello, Paul.

Gabriel.

I really hoped you were dead.

Well, you can't always
get what you want.

Hi, Doc.

Ironically, I have to thank you

for helping me finish what I started.

After you sold me out and
ruined our coup attempt,

I was down on Priors World

recruiting allies

when the Emperor caught
up with the Buran.

As I beamed back to join
the fight, her torpedoes hit.

And luckily, so did an ion storm,

which caused a transporter malfunction.

And...

know where I ended up?

Frankly, I'm still stuck
on the "not dead" part.

A parallel universe.

The ion storm must have

- swapped your transporter signatures.
- Mm.

To me, it was physics

acting as the hand of
destiny... My destiny.

The bioweapon you were
developing for the Emperor...

Show it to me.

Happily, sir.

Sensors have detected mass casualties

on decks through 17.

He's come back from the
grave to stage a revolution,

and that's the best he's got?

If he keeps doing that,

he'll reveal his location;
then he's mine.

Emperor, I've seen
firsthand how he operates.

He can get inside your head,
manipulate you.

You think I don't know that?

He is baiting you.
He wants you to come to him.

Let me contact my ship again.

They have no idea they're
flying into a battle zone.

Please, Philippa.

I'm not Philippa to you.

But you are right about one thing.

He preyed on my sentiment,
my weakness for your face.

It will not happen again.

Take her to the brig.

Your choices have

determined your fate.

No.

- They'll find her, Emperor.
- Take your men.

Bring Lorca to me alive.

I will kill him myself this time.

Captain's Log, stardate 1834.2.

Acting Captain Saru recording.

We are en route to the Terran flagship,

having been summoned
by Specialist Burnham.

Discovery's spore drive
is operational again,

thanks to the full recovery

of our navigator, Lieutenant Stamets.

Yet, despite his best efforts,
the lieutenant was unable

to save Discovery's mycelium crop.

His fear is that his Terran counterpart

has already contaminated the network,

and if so, the results
could be catastrophic.

What is it that you wish
to show me, Lieutenant?

We have less than 30 minutes before

we reach the Terran vessel.

Airiam flagged it...
A massive energy signature

coming off the central orb.

It's mycelial.

This is what my counterpart
has been using his mycelium for.

It powers their ship.

- As it does ours.
- Not exactly.

We ride along the network

with the spores.

That orb is pulling power
directly out of the network.

But I thought the network
could regenerate itself.

Typically it does, but...

this process is poisoning it,

spreading infection
back up into the system.

Without a fresh supply of
spores, it'll only get worse.

The Terrans must be aware of
this flaw; it's not sustainable.

I don't think sustainability

is their main objective,
but it does provide them

with far more energy than
I ever thought possible...

Enough to run their city-sized ship

and power weapons that
can destroy a planet.

As they did on Harlak.

How can a people be so shortsighted?

Well, the Terrans are
egotistical enough to believe

that they can replenish this
resource before it collapses.

The other Stamets must have
been looking for a solution

when he got trapped
in the network with me.

If we don't stop them soon,

the contamination will be irreversible.

The network will

continue to deteriorate everywhere.

Here, in this universe,

back in ours, across
the entire multiverse.

And when it does...

Life, as we know it,
will cease to exist.

Take this shipwide.

Hello, Philippa.

I've watched for years;

you let alien races
spill over the borders,

flourish in our backyard,

then have the gall to incite rebellion.

The Terrans need a leader

who will preserve our
way of life, our race.

Try as you might, it's clearly not you.

Even Michael knew that.

It was her great shame.

Well, it's indecorous of
me to share pillow talk.

To the rest, many of you know me.

Some of you served with me.

To all, I make this offer:

renounce Georgiou.

The Empire is dying in her hands.

But you don't have to... Not today.

Michael Burnham is not to be touched.

She is integral to our future plans,

a future where we together

will make the Empire glorious again.

Got him. He's in the main labs.

Lorca does not control this ship.

I do.

We take the fight to him.

All hail the Emperor!

Don't shoot.

Where are your troops, Commander?

We were ambushed.

How did you survive?

Lorca spared me.

He said he wanted you to know...

Know what?

That he was here.

Hello, Pippa.

Did you miss me?

Light her up.

Mr. Stamets?

Containment field at 30%. 25%.

Five, four, three, two.

It's down!

Flash grenade! Cover, cover!

Emergency transport!

You didn't warn me

she could do that, Mr. Stamets.

Please tell me we can kill him now.

Well, that depends if he can disable

an emergency transport system.

I can.

I can do that.

Good.

Set up a perimeter
around the throne room.

Let's tighten the noose.

Burnham to Discovery. Do you copy?

Come in, Discovery.

Burnham to Discovery. Do you copy?

Come in.

Discovery, do you copy?

Come in.

Please come in.

Discovery here.

We are receiving you.

It's good to see you, Saru.

You as well, my friend.

It appears your
situation has become dire.

Is the captain with you?

He's one of them. He's Terran.

He used us and the Discovery to
jump here, to his own universe.

It was his plan all along.

That's impossible.

Surely, we would have sensed
something. I would have.

That's why we didn't
end up at Starbase 46.

Lorca altered the
coordinates of my last jump.

How?

He-he got the data he
needed from those jumps I did

around the Klingon ship.

Then all that was left was to access

navigation control.

And he can do that from his chair.

Lorca's staging a coup
against the Emperor.

You have to abort coming
to the palace ship.

Get as far away as you can.

I will not consider leaving you behind.

Saru, he has no need for our crew.

He will kill all of you.

He might take Discovery
back to our universe

and bring the whole
Terran fleet with him.

Not if the Terrans have
wiped out all life already.

They have created a
super-mycelial reactor

on the Charon, and it's
destroying the network.

When it goes, it takes all
life with it, in all universes.

How do we stop it?

Lieutenant Stamets believes a direct hit

from our photon torpedoes
on their energy orb

would create a detonation
large enough to sever

the reactor's connection and

allow the network to heal itself.

We're running simulations to
account for energy dispersal.

But?

There's a containment
field protecting the orb.

Our weapons can't penetrate it.

Leave the containment field to me.

Stay at warp, so you can't be boarded,

and I'll find a way to
signal you when I'm in place.

Be ready to blow up
the reactor when I do.

Burnham out.

Believe in destiny now, Mr. Stamets?

That's, uh, rhetorical, right?

Your lack of vision
continues to disappoint me.

I used to suffer from that, too.

But nothing that's happened
to me was an accident.

Not ending up in another world,

not finding a ship that
would help me return here.

None of it.

I'm living proof

that fate is real.

Speaking of which,

we've reached the tipping point,
where your usefulness to me

is outweighed by the
risk of keeping you alive.

I mean, how am I ever gonna trust you?

Honestly.

The living core of the mycelial network.

It's poetic justice, don't you think?

A scientist destroyed
by his own creation?

Just kidding.

I hate poetry.

Sir, I'm getting word of an unauthorized

ship-to-ship transmission.

That'll be my Burnham.

Hello, Michael.

Judging from your communications hack,

you're somewhere on the third deck...

Where, precisely, I can't tell.

But no matter, I'm not
gonna hunt you down.

I'll wait for you to come to me.

What makes you think I'd do that?

Because you belong here.

With you?

In the real world.

I know that's hard for
you to see right now

because you're blinded by your emotions.

The only thing I was blinded by was you.

I know you understand that
I had to lie to you, Michael,

to get home.

Just like you know
that the Federation is

a social experiment doomed to failure.

Childish idealism.

Every species, every choice,
every opinion is not equal,

no matter how much they want it to be.

The strong and the
capable will always rise.

Like you and me.

And every living being
is safer and happier

knowing their place.

That's why we have a duty to lead.

Like what you did that
day at the Binaries.

Stay with me.

Stay here and help me
bring peace to this world

through strength and
order, the right way.

There was no one else
like the other you.

And what she and I set out to achieve

was gonna be remarkable.

And then I met you.

And the truth is... your gifts

far surpass hers.

I see you, Michael Burnham.

I see your power.

And I'm offering you a future.

I have since the day I
brought you onto the Discovery.

Take it.

She rerouted the feed and
disabled the carrier address.

She could be anywhere.

She'll come.

How did you find me?

My bracelet makes my
life signs undetectable.

This is your sanctuary.

Considering the situation,
it made sense you'd come here.

I should have known.

Lorca seduced you, too.

Why would you say that?

He broadcast for everyone to hear.

Why else would he protect you?

Lorca believes destiny
brought me to him.

But he doesn't get to
tell me what my future is.

I'm responsible for forging my own path.

We all are.

My Philippa taught me that.

This...

belonged to my Michael.

Now Lorca has taken everything from me.

You lost a daughter.

An empire.

I lost a captain.

And a life.

Both versions of me betrayed
both versions of you.

I won't let that happen again.

And I won't let you die again.

So that's what happened
to me on your side.

I'm gonna stop Lorca.

I see why he's so enamored with you.

You almost make me
believe you can do it.

I will do it.

For what he's done to me.

For what he's done to
all the innocent people

who have stood in his way.

And for the loss of life to
come if no one stops him here...

today.

What is your plan?

I have to disable the
orb's containment field.

Those controls are in the throne room.

How will you get to them?

By giving Lorca exactly what he wants.

We have a problem.

We knew the orb harnessed exotic energy

by blocking the flow of the network,

but we didn't know that all those

mycelial spores packed in together

created hyper-gravitational
and magnetic fields, too.

Even a blast from our photon torpedoes

won't be enough to free it.

Well, then we'll have to
create a chain reaction,

overload it with potential energy.

What do we have that
harnesses that kind of power?

Uh, our harvested spores.

They hold enough energy to
power us across galaxies.

We-we should modify our
warheads by loading them up.

And how much of our spore
supply would we need to use?

All of it.

We won't be able to jump back home.

We need to get in
close for a clear shot.

The orb is in the heart
of that superstructure.

I don't think we could outmaneuver

a blast like that if we're that close.

Um, I just ran the simulations.

Discovery's shields aren't
strong enough to protect us

from the energy wave
that will be released

when the network is freed.

The shock wave will incinerate us.

I don't think we can make it out alive.

It is well known

that my species has the ability
to sense the coming of death.

I do not sense it today.

I may not have all the answers;

however, I do know that I am surrounded

by a team I trust.

The finest a captain
could ever hope to command.

Lorca abused our idealism.

And make no mistake,

Discovery is no longer Lorca's.

She is ours.

And today

will be her maiden voyage.

We have a duty to perform,

and we will not accept
a no-win scenario.

You have your orders.

On your way.

Aye, Captain.

We've executed her lords
and senior officers, sir.

The rest of the crew are
swearing allegiance to you.

Good.

I was just thinking about
everyone who's ever said that

victory felt empty when it was attained.

What a bunch of idiots they were.

She's here.

Michael.

What's this about?

I won't let another crew
die on my watch, Gabriel.

I've been here long enough to know

that if you want your claim
to the throne to be legitimate,

you have to execute the Emperor.

And you're prepared to
condemn Philippa here to death?

What you said on the shuttle yesterday

was right... She's not my Philippa.

That's very Terran of you.

But you and I both know
that I have her now.

What are you really bargaining with?

I think you know.

In exchange for my crew, I offer you me.

Let them leave safely and I'm yours.

Like you said,

my future is here.

BUT KNOW THIS:

I'm offering you my mind, nothing more.

Until you've completely settled in...

I'm sure you understand.

Well...

it looks like you are
destined to be betrayed

by Burnhams in every universe.

No.

I'm destined to kill you.

Wow. That would certainly
be an impressive trick.

Welcome home, Michael.

Captain was right.

What about?

"Do not accept a no-win scenario."

They're may be a way
out of this after all.

I've reanalyzed the simulations.

Now, if we blow the reactor core,

the resulting explosion will be

pure mycelial energy, right?

Right. Right.

But not just an explosion.

According to this,

the mother of mycelial shockwaves.

If we can stay right on the
leading edge, we can ride it

long enough for the energy
to activate the drive,

and then you can navigate us home.

But, um...

the ship's shields still aren't
strong enough to protect us,

unless we modify

the spore drive to run concurrently

with the warp drive.

The resulting warp bubble may provide

a secondary layer of protection.

A shield from the blast.

If I reverse engineer the coordinates

that Lorca used to get us here,

I should be able to pinpoint
the-the right pathway to take.

And-and that will get us to
the same point in our timeline.

Or at least close to it.

There will be infinite pathways
opening up in front of you.

That-that's gonna be really...

"Hard" is the word you're looking for?

But I don't accept no-win scenarios.

Thank you for your inspiration, Cadet.

Now, please.

Inform the captain of your findings.

Looks like we may be
going home after all.

Message from the Charo sir.

We're advised that it's
safe to drop out of warp.

The message has Burnham's
security code on it.

Lieutenant Detmer,

- drop us out of warp.
- Yes, Captain.

Captain, we're being hailed.

It's Lorca, sir.

On screen.

Mr. Saru.

It's good to see you.

I'm glad I got a chance
to say good-bye to you,

and the rest of the crew.

I want you to know that
my admiration for you

was and is sincere.

When I look at you,

I see the formidable unit
of soldiers that I sculpted.

If I thought for a second
that any of you were capable

of relinquishing this cult-like
devotion to the Federation,

I'd enlist your skills today.

We are not interested
in your sentiments.

Where is Specialist Burnham?

She's fine.

You don't die today

'cause she chose to stay by my side.

I would like to hear that from her.

You are not a reliable source.

I'm where I need to be, Saru.

This is my place.

That is all I needed to see.

Fire!

Owosekun, keep your eye
on that containment field.

- Aye, Captain.
- Detmer, get ready

to give Rhys a clear shot.

- Yes, sir.
- Let's go, people.

Wait.

Stop!

Don't make me have to kill you.

You won't.

We would've helped you
get home if you had asked.

That's who Starfleet is.

That's who I am.

That's why I won't kill you now.

But I will!

We...

We could've...

It was a good plan.

Burnham did it.

The containment field is down.

Beam her back now.

I can't get a lock, Captain.

I'm working on it. Work faster.

You fought well.

For a moment...

I thought I had her back with me.

Lorca's troops.

I will buy you some time.

I am a defeated emperor.

They've seen my neck.

I have no future now.

But I will die on my feet
as fitting my station.

Go, Michael Burnham.

Find a way home.

Live.

Burnham to Discovery.

I've got her. Get her out of there now.

She's on board.

- Black alert.
- Aye, Captain.

Black alert. Black alert.

Lock weapons onto that ship!

The Terran ship is targeting us, sir.

It's now or never, Lieutenant Detmer.

Aye, Captain.

What the hell are they doing?

Is the containment field up?

Locked on, Captain. Fire, Mr. Rhys!

Aye, sir.

Warp speed now!

Yes, sir.

Ambient mycelial energy is
interacting with the drive.

- Cadet Tilly?
- Levels look good.

Engage the spore drive now.

Aye, Captain.

It's working.

The network is regenerating.

Heat shields at maximum.

The pathways are

bifurcating too quickly.

I don't know where to go.

The network is a gift.

It's the thread that
weaves life through space.

I can't even find my way out.

Follow the music, Paul.

Open your eyes.

Wait.

It's the clearing in the forest.

Thanks, Hugh.

Tilly.

Reboot the system and
find out where we are.

And when.

What have you done to me?

Captain, celestial patterns
and subatomic analysis confirm

we are in our Alpha Quadrant.

Oh. But...

we overshot by nine months.

Mr. Bryce.

Send a transmission to Starfleet.

Inform them we have returned.

Aye, Captain.

Mr. Rhys.

Update our tactical map.

- I need to see the status of the war.
- Aye, sir.

Captain, there's no response

from the Federation to our signal.

Not even an automated one.

What does that mean?

War map on screen, Captain.

Well, if the map is to be believed,

it appears...

the Klingons have won the war.
