Married or Divorced?

[Guy Gardener]

Jana Marie Hupp portrayed Lt Monroe and Ensign Pavlik.

Disaster (18 Jan. 1995) - Lieutenant Monroe (Command Red.)


Galaxy's Child (5 Oct. 1994) - Ensign Pavlik (Engineering Gold.)

She either got married and promoted, or divorced and promoted inside the space of 6 months.

No.

She is not two different characters.

TNG wouldn't do that to me.

Did this woman follow her true love to the other end of the ship or run from the dirtbag who ruined her life to the other end of the ship, or as a post-modern woman, her career is not dictated by the man in her life while she ran to the other end of the ship for an undisclosed reason.

Maybe she was suddenly adopted?

 

[Bry_Sinclair]

Divorced.

She had just gotten out of a horrendous marriage, her life was starting to look up, with her promotion and the future of her career, before she is tragically KIA. It turns her into a tragic character.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Maybe they're twin sisters?

 

[DonIago]

Monroe is Pavlik from an alternate timeline.

 

[2takesfrakes]

They were going to get a divorce, until he realised, "... it's cheaper to keep her."

 

[Kevman7987]

I'm going to go the Taurik/Vorik route; they're twin sisters and I'm also assuming one or both are married.

 

[T'Girl]

Her long time widowed Father (Henry Pavlik) met and married a lovely Betazed woman (Stanni Monroe), following Betazed tradition he took his new wife's family name.

In a show of support and family unity Ensign Pavlik and her two siblings changed their last names to Monroe.

Subsequently Ensign Monroe was promoted to Lieutenant.

 

[Armored Saint]

But which was Barry Russo's character maiden name in TOS? Giotto or Wesley?

This.

So Captain Picard has to stamp the paperwork to authorize every wedding, even those he doesn't officiate since he is the law of the land if the ship is outside Federation Space... Does he have to do the same for divorce?

Of course human resources is the XO's job.

Riker probably has Picard's rubber stamp, and only gets called in if Riker fluffs up.

Aren't only people of the same rank allowed to be in a "relationship" to avoid any abuse of power situations?

Is it possible that Pavik couldn't be promoted until she was divorced from her Ensign husband, or that she couldn't serve in the same department as her husband?

Maybe there's no formal agreement like divorce in the 24th century, and you just move out when you're sick of somebody.

Was the word 'divorce' ever uttered during 'All Good Things'?

I know it's stated that Bev and Jean-Luc were married in the future timeline and then went splitsville ("You kept the name.") But I just can't recall if the term 'divorce' was used on screen in the episode or not.

 

[Melakon]

Good point, I forgot about that. But then again, that was a possible future and not definite. I'm still not convinced it wasn't all one of Q's tricks anyway. We can't expect him to tell the truth about anything.

 

[Guy Gardener]

CRUSHER: I understand that you would never have tolerated that kind of behaviour back on the Enterprise and I won't here. I don't care if you're my ex-Captain or my ex-husband.

And...

CRUSHER: Yes. Jean-Luc, crossing into Klingon territory. It's absurd. But then I never could say no to you.
PICARD: Oh. So that's why you married me.
CRUSHER: Well now, the first order of business is to get clearance to cross the Klingon border.

Who really needs to remember anything when there's google?

Did Bev leave him because he was sick, or did Jean-Luc leave her because he didn't want to be a burden?

(It was probably unrelated.)

If one of them was the Captain on a ship where they were married does that mean, judging from my previous guesses did they marry under their own authority... I remember something, a comedy, and this guy became Pope or something like Pope and he was walking around verbally marrying people without their permission.. "Bang! You're hitched! Deal with it!"

Maybe it was a green card thing?

Pavlik married someone to give them Federation Citizenship?

Actually other than that probably being highly illegal, considering her promotion on top of something so legally dubious, which she got right on top of that marriage, maybe Picard or the Federation bribed her with a promotion to marry someone they wanted to tuck into the Federation on the sly?

 

[Armored Saint]

She is not two different characters.

TNG wouldn't do that to me.

So, Rom changed name twice before DS9? TNG always did that.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Maybe there's no formal agreement like divorce in the 24th century, and you just move out when you're sick of somebody.

Much as I shudder to mention the TMP novelization, it mentioned the concept of "contract" marriages which are good for a set length of time, and must be renewed to keep them valid. Perhaps this is what Bev and Jean-Luc had.

 

[Mojochi]

Monroe is Pavlik's daughter from an altered timeline where she travelled into the past 25 years & died there

Pulaski says she had been divorced three times in "The Icarus Factor".

 

[Lance]

^ That's true.

 

[Guy Gardener]

Yeah, but all three divorces were from the same bloke at the same time because he wanted make sure that it took.
