okay, had to register this here on patron as well. so, I felt that the (spoilers) tension between Michael and the admiral was completely natural and I bought it hook-line-and-sinker. the way Starfleet was so cautious and suspicious is completely logical... they thought Disco was a ship full of Time Agents, I'm kinda surprised there wasn't open hostility now that I think about it. so we different, you n me, and that's cool. and about Nan leaving Disco, I think that's kinda her 'thing', she jumped ship from Enterprise and Pike and now she's moving on again; so, I think that is constant with her past choices.

( SPOILERS ) I disliked how they did exactly the same with Nhan that they did with Airiam last season, have this notable character hanging around in the background doing nothing more than be an extra with a few lines, then bring them to prominence in an episode that ends with writing them out. I'd never particularly cared about Nhan as the episode started and by 35 minutes in I was interested and invested in her. And now she's gone! Ghah!

yeah, that is an irritating habit they have. it'd be better to have all that character sprinkled in over the past few episodes

Re: the ending: in my reading, they don't remove the man from the ship, and Nhan stays behind so he doesn't have to die alone. It's kind of a grim choice, but I see the reasoning. The conflict is between (1) do we 'rescue' him, but against his express wishes, because 'we don't leave anyone behind' and because we think he is being irrational? Or (2) do we respect it to be his own damn choice, even if we hate it. But in that case, it would mean leaving him behind to die alone, and the ship being effectively abandoned. So Nhan volunteers to stay behind and to see to him and the bodies of his family members being taken care of. The problem being discussed here is effectively one of suicide: do we respect a person expressing a choice leading to their death, or is that by definition a symptom of their being irrational and thus being in need of rescue from themselves? Society tends to favour the second choice, as does Michael in this episode, but this can cause great harm in itself. I have known people who spent time in closed wards because they expressed some sort of suicidal ideation, and the resulting trauma just by being held there against their will was not trivial. I have heard more than once "well, next time I just won't say anything anymore", meaning in the worst case scenario they will just do it. In other words, intervention against a person's will is a very, very difficult moral question.

yes. I'm an RN, and have dealt with so many of these situations, and argued with family and co-workers about it. What makes it more confusing is I have had suicidal ideation myself, I see both sides - rescue and let them be. To this day I feel morally ambiguous most of the time about these kinds of issues.

Agreed! Let's develop a character then leave her for "good". Though I at least feel Nhan will come back at some point.
