Anticipation is high for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3 following season 2’s nail-biting cliffhanger. Strange New Worlds season 2’s finale, “Hegemony,” saw Captain Pike (Anson Mount) and the crew of the USS Enterprise defy Starfleet orders to rescue Captain Marie Batel (Melanie Scrofano) and the colonists of the planet Parnassus Beta. By the end of Strange New Worlds‘ thrilling season 2 finale, Lt. Noonien-Singh (Christina Chong), Lt. Sam Kirk (Dan Jeannotte), Dr. M’Benga (Babs Olusanmokun), and Lt. Ortegas (Melissa Navia) are captured by the Gorn and Batel has become a host to the terrifying alien species’ parasitic eggs.
