At the very least the Time Agents could send La-An a therapist or something.

Anyone else notice that The Orville has an episode with this same name? S02E13, "Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow"

Another surprisingly good episode, this season is turning out the be a banger.

Is La'an supposed to be stronger than regular humans? She gave that Romulan some good ass kicking. That's really impressive

"This was supposed to happen in 1992!"

Is that a reference to how the eugenics wars were supposed to happen in the 90's but obviously those came and went so they're softly retconning when the eugenics wars took place?

Man poor La'an. That ending broke my heart.

[–] plasmoidal@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

Just here to note two details I appreciated:

  1. La'an still doesn't know what a Romulan looks like after her adventure. The only one she met was surgically altered to look human, although Sera did drop a hint by complaining about the ears. Still, there's plenty of aliens with non-human ears, so not really much to go on.
  2. If she was paying attention, though, La'an did get another clue about Romulan physiology: When she shot Sera, the blood spray was green! Of course, Sera remembered her grandma's old recipe for molecular solvent, so La'an may have thought that was the reason for the coloration.

Maybe once Mariner gets there, La'an can finally talk about what she went through.

I am so late to this. I was up at the cottage for the long weekend and missed the episode until today.

Khan could be my neighbour.
