@@nazreenpg This is so going ot become a running gag. With the limited mobilty of the costume, this is a good excuse to have him (literally) just show up randomly.
Paul jumps the ship through space, met his doppelganger while in a coma, saved Hugh from the Sporeverse, and is now a father figure to a non-binary person with an invisible boyfriend. If nothing else, Paul has become my top favorite Engineer and among my top five favorite Star Trek Characters of all time.
Technically, he's not an engineer. He's a science officer. Reno is the closest thing to a chief engineer. Edit: Apparently there was a production error, where Stamets was listed as Chief Engineer of the Discovery in his file. He is however, the chief of the Spore Drive division, which is run in Science and Engineering.
At first I thought a previous host appearing like this was odd. But then I remembered the "Rite of Emergence" that Ezri once did to drag out Joran to understand a serial killer.
As a Star Trek fan and as a gay man in his mid thirties, I cannot begin to tell you what this scene means. It is a collision of so many sweet painful parts of having an LGBTQ+ identity, what it means to have an older gay mentor, and how our unique individuality can make it all better.
As a bisexual man in his 30s I can say that while I appreciate the sentiment of this scene I'm not a big fan of them introducing an even more marginalised character who just so happens to be even more special than the previously most marginalised one.
This is what Star Trek stands for. Integrating the oppressed. It started with Nichelle Nicols as Uhura. These days we have an openly gay couple taking care of a non-binary person. Let's keep in mind, many red states are passing ridiculous legislation to hinder trans people. Star Trek is setting an example against that lunacy. I would say that is exactly what Roddenberry stand for. Well done.
I love their interactions, the Trill by nature are non-binary and having a non-binary human as a host fits them perfectly. They've represented LGBTQ+ community for almost 40 years now from TNG "The Host" to now, so I don't think it's that absurd to see such interactions. Adira's character may be young and smart, but they are not annoying like other young adults in Trek, i.e. Will Wheaton/Wesley. I'm happy with the character and Paul's interaction with them is a good move.
This is actually pretty sweet and before y'all get bitchy about Gray being visible to Adira, let's not forget Joran was visible to Ezri when that Vulcan was on some rampage on DS9. We don't know exactly how much a Trill interacts with a Human host as Riker was only host for a few hours.
@@hey2775 I dont remember the actual DS9 episode name but that was when Jadzia met all of her past hosts for the symbiont. Took a minute but it is "Facets" season 3 episode 25
The trill are my favorite Star Trek alien species, unique, non-judgemental (usually) due to lifetimes of experience, and the embodiment of great science fiction. They are at least somewhat telepathic or empathic, I believe it's just a subtle thing that they don't want to highlight about their nature. They're not evil alien symbionts bent on galactic civilization like most tropes, they're shy and self-conscious about what others think of them, in essence they are very grounded.
literally the only character in all of star trek who could say, "I redesigned the spore drive..." Adira Tal will always be my favorite. Always. They are 100% pure star trek.
Since Discovery started, haters have been crying foul over this Trek being too preachy and pandering to SJWs and yadda yadda yadda, then the writers clap back with, "By the way, the new Non-Binary character now has two gay dads" I have NEVER seen the double bird to the haters being flipped so BEAUTIFULLY!
I think they never really understood that the core of Star Trek was inherently progressive :). It always asked us to see not what was, but imagine what could be if we approached the world with tolerance and kindness.
For the life of Spock... I don't understand why Star Trek fans shut themselves off to so much good content simply out of spite for what they refuse to understand about human nature.
I love this scene. It so quintessential Star Trek but it also speaks to me as a mental health nurse and I love the acknowledgement that our experiences are our own and they are real.
Having seen the evolution of Paul's and Hugh's relationship through the lens of life, death and spores, you a really see Stamets' trajectory of growth by this encounter. He would have been a jerk to Adira had they met in Season 1.

Yeah, but after the finale i think hes gonna leave the ship or the federation.

Next to the Doctor, Janeway, SevenofNine and Q?

yep, and add in the stable human host variable... not going to be the usual bonding.
The relationship between Adira, Stamets and Culber is some of the best and most wholesome stuff I have seen in a modern show.
They are like a family on and off screen and it's ya so wholesome!
Cringe worthy more like
Space dads
Space dads
Yea, sure
I wholeheartedly agree
I’m not saying I need Stamits and Hugh to adopt Adria.... but I need this family unit in my life.
I just wasn’t him in an upcoming episode just to come to the realisation “oh god, I’ve become a dad.”
Maybe he just want to go straight for a change.
Space Dads
They adopted theeem, the last episode
@@fadlya.rahman4113 no
I think Adira and Wesley Crusher would've been best friends had they existed in the same timeframe 🥺
Same
Wesley is on our comprehension of time and space
I love that Stamets gained humility. He said, "Thank you'!!!
In fairness, he gives those away like casinos give away cash.

It is a collision of so many sweet painful parts of having an LGBTQ+ identity, what it means to have an older gay mentor, and how our unique individuality can make it all better.
It really does seem like so many positive things coming together in one scene, doesn't it? This scene is what Star Trek is really about.
Cool. Good Character.

I think it's quite clear that this is not normally how it works with Trills, and what's really going on with Adira will eventually be revealed later.
Did we forget Curzon leaving and taking over Odo for awhile?

So Stamets doesn't have to be poked anymore in order to activate the spore drive?
Yup
