I wanted to thank you for following orders and maintaining our cover despite your captain's impairment. And, by impairment, I mean having a phaser go off in my chest.
Pike
Burnham: You wanted to see me?
Pike: Yes. And don't make me laugh.
Burnham: Fortunately for you, I was raised on Vulcan. We don't do funny.
Welcome back, Captain, you made it. But your ribs? They're going to feel like the xylophone in a Klingon marching band.
Dr. Pollard
Saru: Perhaps you should disobey my direct orders more often, Ensign.
Tilly: No, I think your orders are probably really good. I need to pass out now.
Detmers: In order for the asteroid to exit at the correct angle, I would have to execute a sustained circular drift.
Tilly: A donut. You would be doing A DONUT in a starship!
Detmers: That's true.
If we were brought here, perhaps this is why. We're responsible -- not only to our landing party -- but to every living being on that planet. Discovery will not allow a catastrophe on her watch.
Saru

Tilly: BOOM

Astromycology has taught me that nothing is ever truly gone. Fungi are the universe's recyclers. This is how termination begins creation. It's why life is eternal.
Stamets
Burnham: In order to guide us through the mycelial network, Commander Stamets injected himself with tardigrade DNA, a violation of Starfleet's ban on genetic manipulation.
Saru: They were willing to overlook this during the war however.
Pike: A tardigrade?
Saru: I suppose you had to be there.
