“Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” offers the usual pairing of Lieutenant La’an Noonien-Singh (Christina Chong) and an alternate timeline version of Captain James T. Kirk (Paul Wesley) who end up in the 21st Century searching for someone or something that has altered the timeline to prevent Starfleet from ever being formed and led to a darker future for humankind. We get the usual Star Trek bits of working to fit into the time period and making use of current technology, and the episode helps explain the addition of Pelia (Carol Kane) to the crew earlier this season as her long life allows La’an to go to a younger version of the character for help (and leaves someone other than La’an with some knowledge of what happened).

Although other characters get small moments here, such as Lieutenant La’an Noonien-Singh‘s (Christina Chong) struggle to discover how Una’s secret was discovered, this is really an episode for Rebecca Romijn who doesn’t disappoint.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds kicks off its Second Season not with delving into the fallout of the arrest of Number One (Rebecca Romijn) and her impending trial, which is briefly mentioned but almost immediately shelved, but instead picking up the thread of Lieutenant La’an Noonien-Singh‘s (Christina Chong) universal walkabout. With the ship in space dock, Captain Pike (Anson Mount) has left to find a lawyer for his friend leaving Spock (Ethan Peck) in command when La’an’s call for help arrives from a key planet to both the Klingons and the Federation warning of dangers to the fragile peace.
