Coming Home
Summary
Tarka begins dismantling the power source's container, causing dangerous plasma bursts. T'Rina learns that the minds of the 10-C are connected and they do not understand that Tarka is acting independently of Discovery. The crew overloads Discovery spore drive to escape the orb, but are unable to approach Book's ship due to the plasma. Ndoye offers to make amends by ramming Book's ship with a shuttlecraft, killing Tarka. Ndoye and Reno are beamed to safety, but Book seemingly dies. The crew of Discovery meet members of 10-C on a planet inside the hyperfield and explain that Tarka was working alone, and why. The 10-C turn off the DMA, sparing Earth and Ni'Var, and reveal that they saved Book.
