Anthony Rapp as Lt. Commander Paul Stamets and Wilson Cruz as Doctor Hugh Culber kiss before Stamets initiates 133 spore jumps. Stamets and Culber's kiss (the first kiss between two cis males in STAR TREK) was imlortant according to Cruz who said it "was a big deal for us ...and we wanted to make sure we got it right."

Hugh Culber and Paul Stamets stand at a bathroom mirror together brushing their teeth. They are wearing matching red Starfleet issue pajamas. There is an open doorway visible behind them. Peeking out from around that doorway are Bert and Ernie of Sesame Street.

Wilson Cruz as Doctor Hugh Culber and Mary Wiseman as Cadet Sylvia Tilly in "Into the Forest I Go", STAR TREK: DISCOVERY (2017)
Wilson Cruz as Doctor Hugh Culber and Mary Wiseman as Cadet Sylvia Tilly in engineering as Stamets navigates Discovery through 133 spore jumps. According to the installment of AFTER TREK immediately following "Into the Forest I Go", writers Erika Lippoldt and Bo Yeon Kim toyed with making the number of Stamets' jumps be 525,600, a reference to "Seasons of Love" from RENT (for which Rapp famously originated the character of Mark Cohen). The writers, however, ultimately settled on 133 jumps, a reference to the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA episode "33".

Still thinking about how invested I was in Michael and Book’s relationship in Star Trek: Discovery.

I’d be pacing in front of the tv loudly saying JUST GO TALK TO EACH OTHER. YALL CAN WORK IT OUT!

Whew, that is so intense emotionally.

And that’s not even talking about Stamets and Culber.

It does doesn’t it. Hugh/Stamets, Jet, etc.

Although in Lower Decks, don’t forget Mariner being super pan.

Hugh, Stamets, Reno, Georgiou, Adira, Gray (and whatever Detmer and Owosekun had going on), I don’t think we’ll get that many queer characters in a show anytime in the near future.

According to AFTER TREK airing immediately after "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad", Wilson adlibbed several of Mudd's insults for various Discovery crew members including referring to Doug Jones' Saru as "Lurch", "Stilts", and "Avatar".

Wilson Cruz as Doctor Hugh Culber, Anthony Rapp as Lt. Paul Stamets, Shazad Latif as Lt. Ash Tyler and Sonequa Martin-Green as Specialist Michael Burnham as they learn about Mudd's time loop. Rapp discussed his thoughts on Stamets' handling of the repeating timeline saying "It was really interesting, 'cause, like, I think that Stamets approached that just like he would approach so many things, ultimately like a problem to solve. Like, a scientist would approach that, I think, like, 'What are the questions here? Now, how do I answer these questions?'"

Anthony Rapp as Lieutenant Paul Stamets, Rainn Wilson as Harry Mudd, and Sonequa Martin-Green as Specialist Michael Burnham in "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad", STAR TREK: DISCOVERY (2017)
Anthony Rapp as Lieutenant Paul Stamets and Sonequa Martin-Green as Specialist Michael Burnham held hostage by Rainn Wilson's Harry Mudd. Prior to the release of Mudd's second appearance on STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, Wilson discussed the producers' intent to flesh out his character: "When I spoke to them — we had a conference call about Harry Mudd when they first offered it to me — and the writers and producers were like, 'Listen, this is a modern-age, this is a real Harry Mudd. He’s got to be a real, flesh-and-blood character. He’s got a backstory — he’s got history. He’s got to have an edge to him for it all to work.' So I knew that this would be a great opportunity for me. I was really excited to dig into that, you know?"

Both Wilson Cruz and Anthony Rapp were effusive about the toothbrushing scene that capped off "Choose Your Pain", Rapp saying: "When I first read the tooth-brushing scene, I was really, um… grateful for that chance, you know, to show something really domestic and simple and heartfelt, but also not mushy."

Doug Jones as Commander Saru, Wilson Cruz as Doctor Hugh Culber, and Anthony Rapp as Lt. Commander Paul Stamets debating the use of the tardigrade to operate the spore drive. According to Executive Producer Aaron Harberts, "Choose Your Pain" was written to, in part, show that Saru had strengths that were not dictated by his fearful Kelpien nature: "We really wanted to make sure that the audience could understand that those on the bridge would understand that the things that make him Saru are a giant strength."
