L'Rell's new long hair Klingon look was revealed prior to the season 2 premiere and will evidently be on full display in this week's episode. Interestingly, Ash Tyler has also grown out his locks into some kind of mini ponytail that The Walking Dead's Jesus would be proud of. L'Rell was romantically involved with Tyler when he was still known as the Klingon Voq, and it's interesting to see that spark rekindled, since Ash and Burnham previously developed feelings for each other during their time on the Discovery. These images perhaps suggest that Ash is over his relationship with Starfleet's first mutineer.

It's also fascinating to see Georgiou return to the Discovery fold, as CBS have already announced that the character will be getting her own spinoff series in the near future. The Georgiou solo series is confirmed to focus on the former Emperor's recruitment into the Section 31 clandestine squad, but it appears that the nucleus of that story will first be explored in Star Trek: Discovery.

Star Trek: Discovery continues with "Point of Light" January 31st on CBS All Access and February 1st on Netflix internationally.
