When the crew ofStar Trek: Discoverytraveled into the future, Zora was the ship’s AI guide in navigating the new world. She went on to become one of the most important characters on the show. More than that, though, she became an essential part of the crew. Her emotional attachment to them wasn’t always the healthiest. In season 4, episode 7, “…But to Connect,” Zora actually refused a direct order from Captain Michael Burnham, in an attempt to protect them from the harm of trying to defeat the Dark Matter Anomaly. In trying to keep them safe, though, she slowed down an important mission and put them in greater danger.

It’s certainly not a problem thatThe Next Generationever faced with Data. But a new show brings unique complications. Seeing how new characters handle their own problems is part of the fun of being a fan. Zora had a capacity to love that she expressed through sentimental gestures, as well as by remaining dependable through a wild variety of high-stakes drama.
