In Star Trek: Discovery Season 5, Episode 6, titled Whistlespeak, Captain Michael Burnham and Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly go on an undercover assignment on a pre-warp planet to find evidence of the Progenitors' technology and, at the same time, observe the Prime Directive.

The mission gives Tilly a reflective adventure, where she undertakes the difficult ritual of the Mother Compeer's Journey and aces her ability to bond powerfully with others, especially Ravah, a local child. This connection is crucial since they find out that the ritual ends with a sacrificial practice, which Burnham intervenes to prevent.

The crew on USS Discovery has to grapple with personal and group challenges in the search for meaning as characters like Adira and Tilly question their role and effectiveness. The episode delves into the implications of the Prime Directive, which is an interesting collusion of non-interference with a need for interference.

Ultimately, Whistlespeak reinforces the thematic pillars of Star Trek about exploration, ethical dilemmas, and personal growth.
