Teaser
In a log entry, Saru says that USS Discovery is preparing to arrive at the headquarters of the Federation and Starfleet and hopes for a welcome reception.

Burnham notes that there will be many questions about the Burn, but says she has other things to ask about as well – her mother, Gabrielle Burnham, who...
Act One

Saru is stunned to find that Kami...

Willa questions whether the ship can really do what Burnham has promised, drawing skeptical looks from the bridge crew. Discovery has three hours to obtain the seeds and synthesize the antidote. Burnham orders black alert, and the ship jumps away. It arrives just outside an ion storm, and they speculate the Tikhov is inside and must be retrieved. As it approaches, Discovery is hit by an energy blast...

In an impassioned plea, Saru references the painter Giotto (not to be confused with Giotto from Captain Kirk’s security detachment in the classic episode “The Devil in the Dark”) and the manner in which the Renaissance artist’s work helped elevate Earth out of its so-called “Dark Ages.”
Saru identifies European humanity with all of humanity. As is now common knowledge, the European "dark ages" were also the flowering of Islamic civilization. This kind of problematic view of history would fit right into TOS, which was made in the 60s, but is quite out of step with how we think about history in 2020.
