Star Trek: Discovery actor Doug Jones says the season 5 ending brought him to tears.

The actor, who plays Saru in the show, participated inTREK Talks 3and shared his tease of the finale during a panel (H/TScreen Rant). “When I went back in to do my ADR voice looping for that final episode to clean up the dialogue and all that we do for every episode, I asked the people in the booth, ‘Can you play this entire epilogue for me so I can see how we end?'” he commented. “And by the time it was done, I was doing this: wiping tears, going: ‘I feel closure. That was great.’ It’s going to be gorgeous.”

The statement went on to tease an “exciting and satisfying conclusion,” and, judging by Jones’s words, it’ll be an emotional one, too. Just what that might entail remains to be seen for now, though.
