Klingon homeworld7/14/2023 If it didn’t, she would blow up the Klingon homeworld. L’Rell is now the chancellor because Starfleet planted a bomb deep inside Qo’noS, and Burnham gave her the detonator to use, essentially, to blackmail the Klingon High Council to make her the boss. The writers for “Discovery” - this was penned by Andrew Colville and directed by Olatunde Osunsanmi - backed themselves into a corner with where they last left the Klingon Empire. It’s not a coincidence that this episode featured the return of the Klingons (this time with hair!), one of the most confusing plot points of the first season. By which I mean it offered crowded, haphazard and choppy storytelling with bold choices that depart from historic Trek norms. Let’s call this a return to form for “Star Trek: Discovery,” in that “Point Of Light” was the first episode this season to remind me of last season.
