6 Ups & 3 Downs From Star Trek: Discovery 5.10 — Life, Itself

I don't think there would have been a plane with a banner big enough had we not got to see the wedding of the year, nay the next millennium! We still weren't on the guest list for the ceremony, but at least we got to gatecrash (down into) the reception. Whether planned or not pre-cancellation, keeping the nuptials fashionably late, as late as possible, in fact, was a choice matched in elegance by T'Rina and Saru's gowns. There were a couple of faces missing at the party, but we'll not get too crabby over that. This coda pre-Coda was about as good as it gets. To the newlyweds, bathed in orange hues!

Also late — blame the Talaxian pirates — but "very dapper," Booker arrives to greet an equally well dressed Michael Burnham. No sooner has he arrived than the pair are off alone for a stroll on the beach. I mean, are weddings really about the couple getting married anyway? Besides, Burnham and Book have left it long enough, although it's never too late to re-try.

Not to ignore Book, whose sentence has been commuted, but it's really just a delight to see Burnham so happy after so much heartache. "You, me, and Grudge, it is," Burnham concludes. It looks like Kovich might have to fit in there somewhere as well. Or perhaps he was just calling about the wedding? He's Daniels — 'fashionably late' might mean missing it by a century or two.
