Who knows? They never released one.

Edit: They finally released one - how novel to release the actual episode first!

Captain Freeman assigns the Lower Deckers an overly safe mission to try and keep a self-destructive Mariner out of danger.

Written by: It's a secret (it was Mike McMahan)

Directed by: We're not tellin' (it was Brandon Williams)

Hmm… according to Freeman’s intel… the Mystery ship was seeking out Lorcano… but as far as I can tell… he’s the mastermind.

Why would he want to find himself?

[-] ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 6 points 1 year ago

Hiding in plain sight, perhaps?

Alternatively, maybe he built the ship, but it's being used by someone else.

[-] Wooster@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

But the mystery ship is already built… implying they’ve had him for quite a while now. Why search for something they already have?

No idea - I was just digging for a possible alternative explanation. I don't really buy it, myself.
