Spoilers Lower Decks General Discussion Thread

I'm hoping we'll finally learn what Migleemo is and where he came from. Mike McMahan revealed they have a backstory kicking around for him that they're waiting for an excuse to use in an episode. The birb may be useless, but he's pretty cute :adore:

I hope he's an Aurellian but when they bring up he's a parrot instead of an Eagle, he's like, "WHAT RACIST TRIPE IS THAT!? So we all have to look alike to you!?"
 
I wonder where T'Lynn is, Mike said we'd see her again, maybe he didn't mean Season 3. There is one more episode, so who knows.

Yeah, wondered the exact same thing. Was expecting her to show up all season, but I guess it didn't work out. If we don't see her next week I hope they'll bring her back in season four.
 
I'm pretty sure Mike McMahan said that T'Lyn wouldn't be in S3 but that she would feature in S4? I can't remember where I read that - either on this board somewhere, or on his Twitter account. I'm guessing that by the time 'wej Duj' aired and T'Lyn's popularity became apparent, it was too late to add her to S3?
 
I tracked down the interview where Mike McMahan talked about T'Lyn. I guess it's vaguely worded. Though the interviewer does specifically ask if T'Lyn will be in season 3, McMahan just says that she is returning, though she won't be on the Cerritos.
In episode 9, which was amazing, you also introduced new Lower Deckers on other ships. Will we see T’Lyn (Gabrielle Ruiz) again in season 3?

Mike McMahan: You will see T'Lyn again, but her story does not take her to the Cerritos any time soon.
Understandable why many might think he meant she'd show up in season 3, but the answer is vague enough to be open to interpretation. All we really know is she is returning but won't be visiting the Cerritos.

Only way I could see T'Lyn being in the finale is if Mariner and her friend run into her on their adventure.

TREKCORE: Fans are clamoring to see T’Lyn again, they really fell in love with her.

McMAHAN: Kathryn Lyn wrote it, and she’s so deep into it — literally, T’Lyn is the name of the Vulcan she has cosplayed as for years at conventions.

There are a lot of people who are like, “Have her join the Cerritos!” — but listen, I have a story for T’Lyn figured out. Season 3 is written, and like, the first episode of Season 3, she’s not on the Cerritos, you know what I mean? But I have stories for T’Lyn that are coming. I love T’Lyn — and I love Ma’ah! My whole thing with Klingons is that I just love a Klingon that doesn’t backstab. A Klingon that’s like, the most honest in their motivations.

I’m just so proud and happy of that episode, and coming into the finale, I’m like “Oh man, now the finale has to be super good now because of how much 209 rules!”
