A living, intelligent, planetoid-sized Sphere pulls Discovery out of warp and immobilizes it. The crew surmises that the Sphere is well-intentioned and has gathered huge amounts of data from all over the galaxy that it does not want to be lost before it dies. However, the Sphere's hold on Discovery triggers the Vahar'ai in Commander Saru, a fatal condition to his species, the Kelpiens. The Sphere transmits its information to the crew and dies, releasing Discovery so that it will not be caught in the ensuing explosion. Saru asks Burnham to euthanize him by removing his threat ganglia, which sense danger. However, they fall out on their own and leave Saru healthy and living without the overwhelming fear his species is known for. Meanwhile, the parasite attaches itself to Tilly again, once again accessing her memories to communicate as a hallucination of May.
