I want to smell dark matter
I started watching season 4.
4.1 - The episode is titled 'Kobayashi Maru' (because Discovery has to constantly reference things.) The President of the Federation comes on the Discovery for some reason and they just happen to be called to a "no win situation" type mission. I genuinely thought it was going to turn out that the whole thing was a holodeck simulation, with an unaware Michael being tested by the President to see how she'd react to a Kobayahsi Maru situation. But no, it was all real! That's all I remember.
4.2 - What's with all the fucking rocks flying out of the consoles when the ships are taking damage? Why are there rocks in there? What is this, the Enterprise-C? And the fucking FLAMES shooting out in the background of the Bridge! It makes it seem like the ships are much much less safe to serve on than 600 years earlier or whenever TOS was.
"Your robot body is ready!"
"Oh, wow, great! Hey, does this mean you've cured death? Anyone who dies can just be moved into a robot body?"
"No, for some reason only the consciousnesses of some guy named Picard and this one specific Trill ghost can be moved to robot bodies. NOBODY ELSE."
"That's strange..."
"Also your robot body will age and die."
"Wait, what..."
"Just consider yourself lucky we're doing this at all when the whole point of joined Trills is that the host lives on in the symbiont after death."
"Oh yeah, and won't the new host of the symbiont miss having my part of the personality to access?"
"You're such a traitor to your culture!"

I mean, we've all heard about the "it's so bad it's good" scenario with other shows and movies. Nah, brah. This is just bad.

4.3 - I totally forgot that Michael's mom is a time-traveller who was taken in by those fucking Romulan warrior nuns from Picard. Because why would I want to retain that memory. One of her friends pointlessly kills a Starflett officer and one of her fellow nuns because it's against their religion to explain situations or some shit. Michael and Tilly have decent friendship chemistry and I think Michael is better in scenes with her than whe she's being all Michale (I'm tying to be positive!)
4.4 - The backdoor pilot for the Starflett Academy show nobody wants. Tilly and some cadets run around an ice planet shooting bad CGI monsters after Tilly tells the cadets not to be racist. Nobody else in the galaxy is qualifed to do this so she gets a job offer. There's some boring politics shit with the Romulan nuns that I zoned out on and can't remember how it ended.
