I have been told by a journalist friend that the cameo next week is a legacy characrer we would not guess would return in a million years.

I have been told by a journalist friend that the cameo next week is a legacy characrer we would not guess would return in a million years.

That to me makes it actually more likely that Tawny will appear as Mariner. We know she will be in the episode. And we know they will play an audio clip of Brooks repurposed as dialog from Sisko.

Maybe SAM is actually a Prophet?

 

[Michael]

I’m not sure why I’m only realizing this now, but actually SAM and Sisko do have something in common! They’ve both been created as emissaries to humanity/linear life forms. I wonder if that will be the vehicle that sets the plot in motion: Someone is telling SAM that there was another famous emissary who lived 800 years ago.

The next two tracks on the OST are

Job of an Emissary
A Song of Prophets

And said character served on DS9 iirc

Clever! Am I the only one who was a little disappointed those tracks weren’t quoting the Deep Space Nine theme in some way? It’s strange, because otherwise Jeff Russo seems to love including melodies from previous Trek scores. Or I just missed it, I don’t know.

That’s right, yes! During the Dominion war.

Has it been confirmed that Tawny is actually acting in it. As I was just referring to speculation.

EDIT: what would blow it off the scale would be if Tawny acts in the episode, and someone comments: "She looks like Beckett Mariner", to be replied with "No I don't see it". I think that would kill me.

That would be a hilarious callback to the Nick Locarno joke.

That‘s what I heard, yes. Although I can‘t remember right now where that piece of info came from.

Yes, but in what capacity i wasn't told.
