They manage to fool Zora's sensors and attach themselves to Discovery's hull as they pass through the galactic barrier.īurnham and Discovery go where no one in the franchise has gone before, and explore the space beyond the Milky Way. Book is concerned that Tarka is less than trustworthy, but continues to work with him. Tarka wants to use the DMA's power source to try and reunite with Oras. He befriended and eventually fell in love with Oras, an equally brilliant scientist who had designed an interdimensional transporter. Tarka was a prisoner of the Emerald Chain, the enslaving warmonger collective Discovery managed to disrupt during Season 3.
STAR TREK DISCOVERY SEASON 4 EPISODE 5 HOW TO
The last half of the season becomes a race against time: Burnham and Discovery must track Book and Tarka down before they can complete the weapon while they figure out how to they'll find and try to communicate with the 10-C.īook learns more about the brilliant Tarka, who wants to prevent more destruction, but acts out of a place of grief similar to Book. Tarka and Book leave in Book's ship, intent on destroying the DMA's power source with a weapon Tarka has designed. This puts her in direct conflict with Book, with whom she is romantically involved. Zora agrees, and reveals the coordinates of where she has determined Species 10-C must be: outside the galactic barrier.īurnham convinces the council to choose a peaceful first contact. As a sentient being, Zora has the right to choose her own path, but must become a member of Starfleet. However, the Discovery personnel convinces Kovich that since Zora is a product of the sphere data evolving as it interacted with the ship's crew, she is actually a completely new life-form. Kovich ( David Cronenberg) arguing that since Starfleet has regulations against allowing a self-aware AI to remain in control of a starship, Zora's reasoning is not valid. On Discovery, another parallel debate finds the ever-mysterious operative Dr.
She refuses to share the information on what they call Species 10-C out of her fear for the crew's safety. Meanwhile, Discovery's sentient computer, named Zora (a system that evolved from the "sphere data," information the crew retrieved from an ancient, advanced creature and went forward in time to keep out of the wrong hands), determines where the DMA must have originated. Tarka develops a model of the DMA's power source in the hopes of finding a way to stop the anomaly.
When the roguish Risan scientist Ruon Tarka ( Shawn Doyle) joins Discovery to study the DMA, Book finds a kindred spirit. After investigating a subspace rift left behind in the DMA's wake, Discovery determines that where it goes, it leaves a toxic void drifting through space behind it.Īs a highly sensitive empath, Book struggles with his anger and grief. After the DMA inexplicably vanishes and then reappears about 1,000 light-years away, the Federation determines that only an extraordinarily advanced life form could have the technology to create and control such a thing. After a close call when what comes to be known as the Dark Matter Anomaly (or DMA, for the convenience of the show's writers) suddenly changes course, the Discovery crew works to hold the still-fragile Federation together.
