Episode 19 - The Case For The Defense

What's HAL's side of the story? Evidence that Clarke may be revealing more than we previously imagined about what's under the circuitry of the defendant and whether he has malevolent or melancholy machinations. 

How does personhood change the measure of the men, the machine, and the consequences aboard Discovery? Also, it's time to zoom in on the space pods themselves and the revolutionary sound design of these scenes.

Plus: Pythagoras, pod puppets, and prohibited palace pooting.
