Strange New Worlds can reveal 'the little blonde lab technician' Kirk almost married.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3 has the answer to a mystery that began in Star Trek: The Original Series 57 years ago if a pair of pivotal characters appear. Strange New Worlds successfully introduced Lieutenant James T. Kirk and integrated him into the crew of the USS Enterprise commanded by Captain Christopher Pike .

In Strange New Worlds season 2, Lt. Kirk met Ensign Nyota Uhura and his future best friend, Lt. Spock , for the first time, setting into motion over three decades of loyalty and adventures by the iconic Enterprise trio. Kirk also has another link to the Enterprise in his friendship with Lt. La'an Noonien-Singh . James and La'an share a mutual attraction, although Kirk can't act on it because he confessed to La'an that his on-again/off-again girlfriend, Carol Marcus, is pregnant.

By introducing Gary Mitchell, Strange New Worlds season 3 can finally solve this mystery, and the identity of the "little blonde lab technician" could very well be Carol Marcus. It's the simplest solution; after all, Carol is blonde, and she is the future mother of Kirk's son, David Marcus .

Will Carol Marcus & Gary Mitchell Appear In Strange New Worlds Season 3? Although it's not confirmed whether Paul Wesley will reprise Lt. James T. Kirk in Strange New Worlds season 3, it would make sense to not only continue the young Kirk's development and relationship with the Starship Enterprise's crew but also introduce younger versions of Star Trek: The Original Series characters tied to Kirk's history, including Gary Mitchell and Carol Marcus.

Carol Marcus was played by Bibi Besch in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, which happens about 25 years after Strange New Worlds season 2. Carol was also played by Alice Eve in Star Trek Into Darkness, which takes place in the alternate Kelvin Timeline of J.J. Abrams' Star Trek movies. Strange New Worlds has proven how deftly it can juggle multiple character arcs and relationship storylines, and it seamlessly wove James T. Kirk into the series.
