It’s time for another week of Star Trek: Discovery episodic anticipation, as today we have a half-dozen new photos from “Point of Light,” featuring the return of characters not seen since last season!
The worlds of Section 31 and the Klingon Empire collide in this week’s new episode, as “Point of Light” brings secret agents Philippa Georgiou (Michelle Yeoh) and Leland (Alan Van Sprang) out of Section 31’s shadows and heads to Qo’noS — where High Chancellor L’Rell (Mary Chieffo) and her companion Ash Tyler (Shazad Latif) are operating at the height of power.
Also featured in these new images are more views of L’Rell’s royal suite, first seen in an image released back in October, and another glimpse of Leland’s Section 31 vessel seen in this year’s cast portraits — and Amanda Grayson (Mia Kirshner), visiting the USS Discovery for the first time.
For those who don’t remember, Leland’s character was introduced in a deleted scene from Season 1’s “Will You Take My Hand?,” which first premiered at last spring’s WonderCon convention, and has since spread onto the Discovery Season 1 Blu-ray special features.
A surprise visitor to the U.S.S. Discovery brings shocking news about Spock and dredges up past regrets for Burnham. Following the asteroid incident, Tilly struggles to keep a grip on her reality. L’Rell’s authority on Qo’noS is threatened.
If you skipped it last Thursday, here’s the trailer for “Point of Light,” thanks to Netflix:
