Star Trek: Discovery - Ups And Downs For Season 3 Episode 4 Forget Me Not

6. Leave Trill Immediately (DOWN)

Schitt's Creek fans were pleased to see Karen Robinson pop up in this week's episode of Star Trek: Discovery, however the depiction of the Trill council left a little something to be desired. There was a lack of consistency among them - not just between the different members, but also in the characters themselves.

Adira has no sooner been introduced to them before they condemn Adira. Humans are not to be blended with Trill symbionts and so, without much in the way of discussion, Burnham and Adira are banished from Trill.

This seems like a huge misstep - whether or not Adira is welcome, or the Federation themselves - the Trill are banishing a viable symbiont for no reason other than they don't like the wrapper it comes in.

This scene was truly one of the episode's low points.
