While on the planet Ni’Var, president T’rina offers Book some “redspice.” This is a very deep cut to the Deep Space Nineepisode “Second Sight,” in which this ingredient was used to make a very specific broth, which in turn, was put into a stew.

In The Original Series episode “For the World is Hollow I Have Touched the Sky,” an asteroid was discovered to actually be a starship. There’s also a few precedents for spatial bodies actually being spaceships in the Trek canon. When Gabrielle says “this isn’t a moon…it’s a ship…” it seems like Star Trek is referencing Star Wars ! Quite famously, Obi-Wan Kenobi said “that’s no moon…it’s a space station” in Star Wars: A New Hope. Season 2 was also the first appearance of Gabrielle Burnham. named “Control,” manipulated holograms to make it look like Spock killed some people. Subscribe “When Spock was accused of murder”īurnham’s mom mentions the moment when “Spock was accused of murder.” This references the events of Discovery Season 2, in which a rogue A.I. This idea was first introduced in Star Trek: Picard, again, in the episode “Absolute Candor,” when Elnor bound himself to the lost cause of Jean-Luc trying to find Soji and the cause of Dahj’s death. Gabrielle mentions that J’Vini is probably on a quest connected to a “Qalankhkai.” This is a Qowat Milat term that means the person on the quest has bound their blade to a lost cause. In Discovery, it appears that both Vulcans and Romulans (and at least one human) can be a part of this order. The Qowat Milat originated in the PicardSeason 1 episode, “Absolute Candor,” though canonically, this Romulan order has existed for much longer.In this episode, we learned that the person who helped Gabrielle adjust to living in this new future is the now-rogue Qowat Milat, J’Vini. The difference being, that Gabrielle arrived in the 32nd century several decades before the crew of DISCO. At that point, we learned that just like Michael and the crew of the Discovery Gabrielle was drawn into the future. The reappearance of Gabrielle Burnham, a human sister within the order of the Qowat Milat, is a callback to Discovery Season 3.For all you completists, the nerve pinch was first used in the TOSepisode “The Enemy Within.” Gabrielle Burnham and the Qowat Milat In the first episode of Discovery, Michael Burnham - a human raised by Vulcans - used the nerve pinch on Captain Georgiou. The Next Generation established that the nerve pinch can be done by non-Vulcans, notably, Jean-Luc Picard and Data.

Whether she’s actually Romulan or Vulcan isn’t super relevant here. Before drawing her sword, J’Vini appears to use a Vulcan nerve pinch on one of the Starfleet officers.
