I hadn’t seen any mention in the Trek fandom that the Kzinti are now canon. (Yes, they appeared in TAS but Roddenberry had declared TAS except for the episode Yesteryear to be non-canon.) If you’re unfamiliar with the race, they were adapted by Larry Niven from his Known Space series of stories for TAS. They’re described as looking like tigers except for being bipedal, standing 8 feet (2.4 meters) tall, weighing 500 pounds (227kg), with a naked rat-like tail. They’re very fast, very strong, and very aggressive.
The Kzinti fought a series of wars with humans and lost each one very badly. Part of the problem was that when Kzinti first encountered humans, Earth had been at peace for a long time and the Kzinti telepaths declared humans to be pacifists whose ships were unarmed. But humans being highly adaptable were able to use the reaction drives of their ships as improvised weapons to wreak havoc on Kzinti warships. Even though humanity fought well against them, you still wouldn’t want to have been captured by the Kzinti as they would typically turn human captives into a meal.
All of TAS has been restored to canon. Executive Producer Akiva Goldsman revealed such in a recent Picard podcast. Which explains a few prior callbacks to it in Discovery, as well. They view it as TOS season 4.
“The transience of the blossoms, the exquisite beauty and volatility, has often been associated with mortality and graceful and readily acceptance of destiny and karma.“
Will comes to a conclusion at the beginning of this episode. He knows what he has to do and is ready to accept his destiny, whatever it is. He has accepted himself completely. At the end of this episode we see a new painting at Bedelia’s living room (a branch of a cherry tree).
