1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.544
This isn't the Terran universe.
2
00:00:04.045 --> 00:00:06.965
A vulnerability is
not a death sentence.
3
00:00:07.924 --> 00:00:10.010
One of the interesting things
about their relationship
4
00:00:10.010 --> 00:00:11.428
that we try to
highlight in subtle ways
5
00:00:11.428 --> 00:00:13.138
over the course of the season,
6
00:00:13.138 --> 00:00:15.724
is that they are not
each other's person.
7
00:00:15.724 --> 00:00:18.893
This isn't Prime Georgiou and
this isn't Mirror Burnham.
8
00:00:18.893 --> 00:00:21.730
They are the mirrors of
one another put together.
9
00:00:21.730 --> 00:00:23.273
My hand...
10
00:00:23.273 --> 00:00:24.649
is fine.
11
00:00:24.649 --> 00:00:25.483
[plate clinking]
12
00:00:25.483 --> 00:00:26.317
[Tilly gasps]
13
00:00:26.317 --> 00:00:27.610
See.
14
00:00:27.610 --> 00:00:31.573
Where I'm from, wars would
have started over much less.
15
00:00:31.573 --> 00:00:33.700
Thankfully we're not there.
16
00:00:33.700 --> 00:00:37.662
For her to go back and realize
how disconnected she was,
17
00:00:37.662 --> 00:00:41.041
and that she hungered
for a connection
18
00:00:41.041 --> 00:00:42.792
that she didn't even
realize at the time.
19
00:00:42.792 --> 00:00:44.794
And she's now found
that with this crew,
20
00:00:44.794 --> 00:00:47.213
and with this person
in particular, Burnham.
21
00:00:47.213 --> 00:00:49.716
You gave me new life.
22
00:00:51.342 --> 00:00:54.804
And the rest of your
crew isn't so bad either.
23
00:00:54.804 --> 00:00:56.681
And it's sad for her at the end
24
00:00:56.681 --> 00:00:58.558
that she's gonna have to
go and let go of that.
25
00:01:01.603 --> 00:01:02.812
[Michelle] I think a
lot of the struggle in
26
00:01:02.812 --> 00:01:04.689
their relationship has been
trying to relate to one another
27
00:01:04.689 --> 00:01:07.108
as the person they knew,
not the person they are.
28
00:01:07.108 --> 00:01:08.985
But in that final moment together
29
00:01:08.985 --> 00:01:11.654
they're both able to
admit, you are my person.
30
00:01:11.654 --> 00:01:16.284
I've seen that some
endings are inevitable.
31
00:01:16.284 --> 00:01:17.577
Mine.
32
00:01:17.577 --> 00:01:18.995
Captain Burnham's.
33
00:01:19.913 --> 00:01:23.541
And perhaps your Philippa was
destined for her end as well.
34
00:01:27.087 --> 00:01:28.713
You are my Philippa.
35
00:01:28.713 --> 00:01:32.425
They have found a way to
love and honor one another
36
00:01:32.425 --> 00:01:33.301
for who they are.
37
00:01:33.301 --> 00:01:35.386
And that they've both been
changed by one another.
38
00:01:35.386 --> 00:01:36.513
I just think it's really beautiful
39
00:01:36.513 --> 00:01:38.515
that they were able
to get to that place.
40
00:01:38.515 --> 00:01:40.308
I'm gonna send
you back to a time
41
00:01:40.308 --> 00:01:42.393
when the Mirror Universe
and the Prime universe
42
00:01:42.393 --> 00:01:43.978
are still aligned.
43
00:01:44.479 --> 00:01:46.106
Then it's time
for Georgiou to leave
44
00:01:46.106 --> 00:01:47.190
and she has no choice.
45
00:01:47.190 --> 00:01:50.401
That's so you won't fall
apart, atomically speaking.
46
00:01:50.401 --> 00:01:53.154
Now she's wanting this
Burnham to come with her
47
00:01:53.154 --> 00:01:54.322
and that's not possible.
48
00:01:54.322 --> 00:01:56.449
Can Michael come with me?
49
00:01:56.658 --> 00:01:57.575
Afraid not.
50
00:01:58.284 --> 00:02:01.830
This Michael Burnham is
right where she needs to be.
51
00:02:02.163 --> 00:02:03.790
And then Georgiou
is able to leave
52
00:02:03.790 --> 00:02:06.167
and it's tragic and
wonderful and bittersweet
53
00:02:06.167 --> 00:02:06.918
all at the same time.
54
00:02:07.293 --> 00:02:08.211
Who are you?
55
00:02:09.170 --> 00:02:09.671
Really?
56
00:02:10.338 --> 00:02:10.839
Really?
57
00:02:12.715 --> 00:02:17.345
I am the Guardian of Forever.
58
00:02:23.601 --> 00:02:25.270
It was really interesting,
59
00:02:25.270 --> 00:02:27.063
when we start talking about
the Guardian of Forever
60
00:02:27.063 --> 00:02:29.023
because it's always great
to have these callbacks
61
00:02:29.023 --> 00:02:31.651
back to TOS.
62
00:02:31.651 --> 00:02:33.611
Because no matter how far
ahead we are in the future,
63
00:02:33.611 --> 00:02:36.698
it grounds us into what
Trek is really about.
64
00:02:36.698 --> 00:02:39.492
At the end, I think she
realizes that wherever she lands
65
00:02:39.492 --> 00:02:42.579
she can create a new life
that does have connection.
66
00:02:42.579 --> 00:02:44.747
She doesn't have to go
back to the person she was,
67
00:02:44.747 --> 00:02:46.916
she is as changeable as all of us,
68
00:02:46.916 --> 00:02:49.210
and she gets to choose the
future she wants for herself.
69
00:02:49.210 --> 00:02:52.255
And I think that's the
crossroads she finds herself in.
70
00:02:52.255 --> 00:02:54.090
[electrical whirring]
71
00:02:59.012 --> 00:03:00.471
When we first read Episode 10
72
00:03:00.471 --> 00:03:04.017
and realized that that was
gonna be Michelle's last episode
73
00:03:04.017 --> 00:03:04.934
it was pretty emotional
[everyone cheering]
74
00:03:04.934 --> 00:03:06.561
for us on Discovery.
75
00:03:06.561 --> 00:03:07.812
It was really important to us
76
00:03:07.812 --> 00:03:10.273
that we gave her the
send-off of an emperor.
77
00:03:10.273 --> 00:03:12.525
Let's put this on the coolest
location we could find,
78
00:03:12.525 --> 00:03:13.359
which it is.
79
00:03:13.359 --> 00:03:16.362
And let's build the coolest
Gate of Forever which we could,
80
00:03:16.362 --> 00:03:17.197
which we did.
81
00:03:17.197 --> 00:03:18.990
And it was very emotional
saying goodbye to her
82
00:03:18.990 --> 00:03:20.074
on that last day.
83
00:03:20.074 --> 00:03:21.492
It's a pretty big deal for us.
84
00:03:21.492 --> 00:03:23.620
[everyone clapping]
