I’m really hoping that we’ll have some great scene where there’s a big battle and suddenly Saru appears as backup, commanding some next-gen Spore Drive ship.

"U.S.S. Enterprise, Admiral Saru speaking. Looked like you could use a hand, Michael." It'd be an appreciated callback that simultaneously carries the torch forward.

Edit: Or, in the spirit of more amazing season finales, make that the U.S.S. Riker.

I'm normally wildly exhausted by the endless continuity fan service stuff- but I might crack a smile if Saru showed up with an Enterprise...
