Star Trek: Picard- Commodore Oh theory
Mar. 22nd, 2020 10:28 pm3 episodes in to Picard.
I suspect there's more to Commodore Oh than has been revealed thus far. There is one huge reveal that I've seen(and had been spoiled on) but I suspect another is coming.
I think she is from the Mirror Universe.
She is Vulcan or at least a vulcanoid species. Vulcan was established many times to be a largely desert world. The areas of Mintaka III where the Enterprise encountered the Mintakans were also sunny desert. This is an evolutionary line that is selected for bright skies that humans would have serious trouble with.
So why is Commodore Oh not even taking the full brunt of the sun and wearing sunglasses? When a seemingly human character in full sun was not? This wasn't part of a disguise, she was if anything more noticeable like this.
Now Discovery S1 showed that Mirror Humans were light sensitive relative to Prime Humans. Perhaps this applies to vulcanoid species as well? Now, it's possible that Oh has a medical condition warranting sunglasses, but hell, that was Lorcas excuse too.
Perhaps i'll find out later this season, perhaps I won't.
