Each one an android. Meaning he found the android world and has done better this time than in TOS. But it really makes me think Discovery is in the Kelvin timeline.
As to the trick? I got a laugh on that one.
Though I miss the mustache of the original.

This episode was Harry Mudd being Harry Mudd. What's not to love? Unless of course you hate Harry Mudd.

He has a decade to grow the stache in.
This feel more like Mudd than his appearance in the series. Collecting the multiple bounties on his head himself using androids is a scheme he would so get behind.
You know, it would be fun to have a Short Trek series that covers all time periods. So one episode could be in the TNG era, another could be Deep Space Nine, yet another could be Enterprise. It would be a chance to tell stories the series just couldn't tell.

This one looks like it was an actual fun, smart episode. There's probably only so long Harry can go on before word gets out about the scheme, but even after then it might work a little because if you catch a Harry you might not know it's the Harry you want, unless you have a tricorder.
Or see if their spine lights up during sex, but is any bounty really worth that?

Oh. I hadn't seen the episode in a long time, so I forgot the cat was just suddenly there.
I wonder how they came to the decision to give Data a cat in the first place.
Exec 1: "Data needs to be more relatable to the audience."
Exec 2: "Let's give him a pet."
Exec 1: "BRILLIANT!"
