"And, joy is there so you have something real to fight for."

So many emotional pay-offs in this ep.: the different types of relationships and their meanings, the issues and continuing work being done around Spock's life work towards reunification, and the questioning torment Michael Burnham rightly puts herself through for choosing to break the Federation's most basic rules.... Even the small kudos between Book & Michael (Your family are seriously chronic overachievers) and Tilly & Stamets, tickle me in just the right places!
A real dopamine fest! haha

I just wish we could have heard the phrase, "Choose to live my brothers!" from Michael's Mom, and whip out that sword. hahaha

@vwfringe And Tilly, man those years of being an Ensign really payed off - being promoted into a position usually held by a comander - not having to go through this tedious process of promotions like maybe collecting experience as a Lt JG, Lt and LT Cmdr first...

No Leadership ability (at least not seen on air) - but I guess being liked is the only qualification one needs to be responsible for a few hundred people should the Captain die or become incapacitated...

(But, I highly recommend all of the Short Treks!)
Tilly HAS leap-frogged over many others, but also has gained a spot light of being ambitious to leadership roles (and, part of that was her Terran doppleganger).
I know, though...compare that to Ensign Kim of Voyager, and she could, rightly, expect decades of waiting for advancement. I'm happy for her -- her advancement feels organic.
