Season 5 is off to an awful start. Or is it just me?
Have I lost my sense of fun? Why can't I let some nonsense pass in order to enjoy the show? I do it for other shows, plenty of them. So, why can't I let Discovery have a pass.
I don't know.
Anyway. When sent on a crucial mission Burnham backs down to allow thieves, murderous thieves we learn later on, escape with vital technology.
How a two person scavenger shop can outclass two federation starships is never explained either
They escape using 20 decoy warp signals. Burnham does not use her ship's unique drive to instantly leap through all 20 endpoints which she could do in 20 seconds.
Instead she slinks back to base to pick up her boyfriend who correctly guesses the right one.
That could have been a email, right?
With two starships in orbit they can't locate the villains, allowing them to murder away and escape!
There's 1000 people on these ships so they send 3 people to the surface to find and capture 2 people.
Blah de blah they escape again on spacebikes (which could be picked off from space, surely) but not before stopping to try and kill thousands of people with a landslide and again they out pace two starships. One with an instant drive.
All this while Burnham has a direct order to use lethal force of necessary.
Christ on a spacebike.
