Just watched season 2 episode 2 and am so lost, have no idea what the hell is going on. Too much time between seasons 1&2. Imma give up

I have to watch this show with the captions on. Everyone whispers or mumbles. 

Then don't watch it. Plenty of us enjoy the show. Sounds like the ridiculousness of The Voice is more your speed anyway 

I love time travel in Trek.

Yes, if Rick dies so does the heart of the show
