    The Escape Artist.

    The fourth episode of Star Trek: Short Treks highlights Harcourt Fenton Mudd, a character that has been around almost as long as Star Trek itself. Rainn Wilson not only portrays Mudd, but also directs. The twists and turns of Mudd being captured and turned over to Starfleet again and again make for a fun episode to watch while the writing and comedic timing make it even more fun to listen to.

    In this episode of The Edge, hosts Patrick Devlin and Amy Nelson are joined by Brandon-Shea Mutala of Warp Five and Melodic Treks to discuss the brilliance of "The Escape Artist" and the concept of Short Treks. We debate the Mudd timeline compared with The Original Series and which actions were taken by Mudd himself or which by his androids. And, in closing, we rank the four Short Treks episodes.

    Revisiting Context Is for Kings.

    In Michael Burnham, Starfleet has its first mutineer. However, she knows herself and continues to live by Starfleet's code as she is stripped of rank, holding herself to the standard expected of someone who once served as first officer. The best way she knows to do this is to cause no further trouble and carry out her sentence. Captain Gabriel Lorca, however, has other plans. Revealing that Discovery is creating a new way to fly, he commands Burnham to help not-Chief Engineer Paul Stamets with his research into spore drive technology. The universe, he says, doesn't like waste, and having her sit in a prison cell would be a waste of intelligence and resources.

    In this episode of The Edge, hosts Amy Nelson and Patrick Devlin discuss the third installment of Star Trek: Discovery, "Context is for Kings," as part of their first-season rewatch. We examine Commander Ellen Landry's dedication to Lorca and question if she is from the Mirror Universe. We explore Cadet Sylvia Tilly's contributions to the ship and relationship with Burnham, and debate whether Lorca knows Burnham better than she knows herself. Lastly, we question whether the spore drive is the work of Section 31 and how it takes Burnham to places located around the universe.

    The Brightest Star.

    Saru played a critical role in the first season of Star Trek: Discovery. Doug Jones's brilliant portrayal of an alien who must suppress fear to achieve Starfleet's mission of exploration added new layers to the franchise. But his species, the Kelpiens, are new to Star Trek and Discovery's freshman season gave us limited information about them. Short Treks remedies this with "The Brightest Star," in which we get to see Saru's culture, religion, and family.

    In this episode of The Edge, hosts Amy Nelson and Patrick Devlin discuss the beautiful themes of compassion, hope, and curiosity found in "The Brightest Star." We see an inquisitive Saru question the harvest and defy his father, leading to a very different first contact situation for Starfleet. While we do not see a hunter in a traditional sense, we do learn that religion plays a major role in the lives of Kelpiens. When Saru questions these traditions, his father orders him not to upset the Great Balance. This pushes Saru to ask more questions about the universe and forces him to choose between the stars or staying with his race.

    Laz Marquez Interview.

    Fans of a particular television series or universe love to show their appreciation for what the creators and actors have given them—and Star Trek is no exception. Some fans, such as Laz Marquez, even want to give back. In the case of Marquez, this takes the form or art.

    In this episode of The Edge, hosts Amy Nelson and Patrick Devlin are joined by Marquez to discuss his poster art for each episode of Star Trek: Discovery. We discuss his motivation and what drove him to give back—not only for himself but also for his mother—and why self-imposed deadlines are an important part of his workflow.
