So I was looking around channels and I found this one called Heroes and Icons and I learned that they play every single Star Trek series that's in syndication (Minus TAS).

And it turns out the Red Angel they capture isn't Michael. But, since we are dealing with a time traveling suit does this mean they actually captured the Red Angel that had been acting at other times?

Jokes generally have to be funny. Endlessly rehashing the same "Orville is the real new trek because Discovery sucks" line over and over again isn't funny.
