In the final episode of this retrospective on Star Trek: Discovery, we look at the series' fifth season. Dr. Kovich assigns Captain Burnham and the crew a top-secret Red Directive mission. He wants them to investigate an ancient Romulan science vessel. It soon turns into a race across the galaxy against two couriers known as Moll and L'ak. They stole a Romulan puzzle box containing a journal linked to 24th-century scientists searching for Progenitor technology, which was used to seed life across the galaxy. Burnham must assemble a galactic map to locate the technology while keeping Moll and L'ak from beating her to the next clue.
