Star Trek: Discovery
Season 01
S01E12 - Vaulting Ambition
Burnham and Lorca are summoned to the ISS Charon, the imperial flagship. Georgiou sends Lorca to a torturous agony booth, and has dinner with Burnham. Stamets finds himself within the mycelial network with the consciousness of his Mirror counterpart, learning that the network has been corrupted by the Mirror Stamets’ experiments. Stamets encounters a representation of Culber and accepts his loss, before waking up from his trance. He discovers that his spore collection has been infected. Georgiou laments allowing Lorca to become a father figure to Burnham, only for the pair to fall in love and plot to overthrow her. She plans to execute Burnham, who reveals the truth about being from another universe. Explaining how they had crossed over, Georgiou trades the spore drive’s schematics for information on alternative ways to cross between universes, which leads Burnham to realize that the Lorca she knows is actually originally from the Mirror Universe and has been manipulating events to get back to the Mirror Universe while also getting close to her. Lorca escapes from the agony booth.
