Star Trek: Discovery - The War Without, The War Within

I have no idea how they're going to wrap this up in one episode, because nothing happened in this one. Or practically nothing. Maybe they're just setting it up for the next season, but if so then I don't think next season's going to be any good at all.

Also Sarek is in this episode.
The Admiral beams onboard and takes over the ship. Security guy / secret Klingon seems to be not a Klingon any more so he's free to wander the ship as he pleases, but he's kicked out of Starfleet. They used some superscience to make more mushrooms to power their spore drive. They come up with a plan to map the Klingon home planet so they can attack it. And right at the end of the episode the admiral brought out the emperor disguised as her good universe counterpart and said "Hey look everyone, look who's back and not dead somehow and there's absolutely nothing suspicious about this so don't ask any questions, OK? She's in charge now.

"Hi, it's me, the emp- I mean captain. This is not suspicious."
I guess they figure that their first evil-universe captain was doing such a good job before he died that they'd stick with what works. Michael and Saru are clearly not happy about it but they're not blowing her cover yet. And that's all that happened.

They covered a planet in fungus in literally seconds.
