Into The Forest I Go

Star Trek Discovery
S01E09
Season 1 Episode 9

Another mess of an episode. 

They went to Pahvo to see if they could use "space sonar" to detect the cloaked Klingon ships, but then they fly to Star Base 46 at warp 5. Yet somehow they can detect, on long-range scanners, while flying away at warp 5, a cloaked vessel at the planet!?! Did they forget what this entire episode is about? So they return to try to figure out a way to detect cloaked vessels!? It was so incredibly stupid. Then they planted those enormous transmitters in plain sight on the ship. They didn't even put a blanket on it to hide the lights.

And they needed 155 spore jumps for it to work? That was nonsense. Just fly around at impulse. Plus the Klingons just drifted there while they watched the Discovery teleport around them. It was so stupid. They should have dropped cloak & fired. Then Captain Lorca decides, for no good reason, that they should jump to the star base & they end up so deep in Klingon space that they don't know where they are, unless they accidentaly time traveled & the stars are in different positions.

The Rent joke wasn't even funny after all that stupidity. So he has PTSD but he's going on Away missions to Klingon ships, but Captain Lorca has trouble sleeping & the Admiral wants to relieve him of command. How do they not have regulations for personnel who have PTSD? Not that it matters because it sure seems like he's Voq pretending to be human.
