I can get it being back by the 32nd century, but I still wonder why Nova Squadron (or any elite academy group beyond a simple honors society) came back in Prodigy relatively shortly after:

  1. The Locarno incidents
  2. That time Red Squad tried to take over THE ENTIRE FREAKIN’ FEDERATION.

I have a feeling that Ocam Sadal (played by Canadian Romeo Carrere) could be an interesting third wheel in the dynamic between Daren and Caleb.

He’s such a contrast to his sister Tarima, and really gives off that Lwaxana Betazoid, says whatever he’s thinking because he knows what you’re thinking vibe.

I don’t see Brazilian-Canadian actor Rafa Virago as Pritchard in any of these publicity stills but it looks like there may be one or two new background regulars that we’ll be seeing.

Unfortunately, that's also made me wonder if his days are numbered...

I really hope not. However, this generation of writers are firmly in the grip of ‘trauma is necessary for interesting characters’ and the Hero’s Journey Pop anthropological theory of the 1970s that took over film schools.

So sure, why wouldn’t everyone need to be traumatized by a Betazoid dying horribly?!! /s
