I am genuinely excited to see the Kalar return. The last time Pike encountered them, three crew people died and it caused him to almost resign his commission and become an Orion trader. The Kalar should be to Pike as the Cardassians are to O’Brien.

“I don’t hate you, Kalar, I hate that you almost made me become someone who deals in green animal women.”

So very many fun things to come!

Yes Boimler, it is the golden age of exploration.
