• Michael Burnham : I saw a recording of the speech you gave at the captain's funeral. It was beautiful. I never thought I'd get a chance to say this to you. I think about what happened every day, all the time, and I owe you. I'm trying to say...

  Saru : "I'm sorry"?

  Michael Burnham : Yes.

  Saru : I believe you feel regret. But... in my mind, you are dangerous. Captain Lorca is a man who... does not fear the things normal people fear. But I do. And you are someone to fear, Michael Burnham.

  Michael Burnham : I just want to get back on that shuttle, Commander. I won't make any trouble for you here.

  Saru : Well, that is certain. But if you try, know that I intend to do a better job protecting my captain than you did yours.

• Saru : It has not gone unnoticed that, during your time on this ship, you conducted yourself in a respectable manner. And from what I understand, you were invaluable to the boarding party, which I was pleased to hear since I was the one who recommended your involvement.

  Michael Burnham : I appreciate your faith in me.

  Saru : You were always a good officer. Until you weren't. If only you hadn't... You're a valuable asset. It is a loss for Starfleet.
