The Spock: Lieutenant Commander T’lan, fittingly enough. When the ambassador at the Betazoid Embassy briefly relates his suspicions that he was intentionally placed on the under-staffed unfinished Starbase 138, T’lan’s response is to encourage him to “seek the logic.” |

comment |
Red Shirt: The former Chief Engineer of the USS Sally Ride during their "Episode 0" test session is something of a subversion, as their death is mentioned and felt well into the show and his death jumpstarts the plot-point of filling his now vacant position. In 'The Pull pt. 2' Security Officers Yalor and Rett are specifically described as such (though given the time period they are actually wearing yellow shirts.) |
