Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

The only thing I have to say about this entire Pike fate discussion...

... and you can quote me on that!
Hey! You watch your language!
 
A throwaway line in Picard Season 2 will talk about how the synths have just left Talos IV and the operations to transfer Vina and Captain Pike into synth bodies was a success.
 
I just saw the casting announcement for some of the crew, and Yeoman Colt is missing. If Yeoman Colt isn't on the show I'm taking my toys and going home.

I'm sure those characters will be referenced or show up in guest spots at some point. Maybe even in a flashback scene. No way they keep Colt as a spikey alien though.

Come on, we all want to see Idris Elba and find out how Colt was forced to use Krall's tech on a hapless spiky alien to survive.
 
From the look of things, I'd say the chair was just barely keeping Pike alive.
It could be that the amount of Delta Radiation his body absorbed is continuing to degrade what's left of him.
That may be why Spock was in such an all fired up hurry to get Pike back to Talos IV.
Perhaps he only had a few more months to live and Spock wanted him to spend it with a lot more dignity rather than rotting away in that chair.

The Talosians may even be able to cure Pike in some manner.
Even though they lived underground, they obviously had a very advanced civilization.

Pike(thinking): "Dammit. And he still owes me fifteen credits from that poker game on Emperor Georgiou's ship.

ASSHOLE."
 
I mean the new characters they revealed in the video. They kill that Noonien Singh character before they even address that surname.
People have been speculating online that she might be a descendant of his and have some abilities, which has lead to people saying she is going to be their Illara. She’ll be opening Pike’s pickle jars. :)

And now you have discovered why Section 31 arranged that little accident with the baffle plate on that Class J training vessel, and why, despite significantly more advanced 23rd century technology in existence ten years previously, Captain Pike was confined to the beep-beep chair.

Ash will go to great lengths to avoid paying a poker debt.
