1
00:00:01.334 --> 00:00:03.545
Season 2 of Strange New Worlds,

2
00:00:03.545 --> 00:00:07.298
it just amps up everything
a thousand times more.

3
00:00:07.298 --> 00:00:09.300
Season 2 is more.

4
00:00:09.300 --> 00:00:10.468
We just did more.

5
00:00:10.468 --> 00:00:11.594
We did bigger.

6
00:00:11.594 --> 00:00:13.096
We did more bigger.

7
00:00:13.096 --> 00:00:14.973
Now, hold on to your saddles.

8
00:00:20.395 --> 00:00:21.896
At the beginning of Season 2,

9
00:00:21.896 --> 00:00:25.150
the crew of the Enterprise
are sort of split asunder.

10
00:00:25.150 --> 00:00:27.819
Una is in prison, awaiting her trial.

11
00:00:27.819 --> 00:00:29.821
She got sent to prison
at the end of Season 1

12
00:00:29.821 --> 00:00:32.615
for lying to Starfleet
about being an Illyrian.

13
00:00:32.615 --> 00:00:34.409
Initially, and it said in Season 1

14
00:00:34.409 --> 00:00:38.038
that if Una's identity as
an Illyrian ever came up,

15
00:00:38.038 --> 00:00:43.043
that Pike welcomed that
conversation with Starfleet brass.

16
00:00:43.585 --> 00:00:46.421
Unfortunately, he's found
that it's going to be a trial

17
00:00:46.421 --> 00:00:48.965
and so he's left in a lurch

18
00:00:48.965 --> 00:00:51.551
and has to employ every trick in the book

19
00:00:51.551 --> 00:00:53.595
to try to get her out of the situation.

20
00:00:53.595 --> 00:00:55.805
Last season, in Episode 9,

21
00:00:55.805 --> 00:01:00.393
La'An takes Ariana off to go
and help her find her family.

22
00:01:00.393 --> 00:01:04.481
In Season 2, we pick up
on this incredible planet,

23
00:01:05.523 --> 00:01:08.151
and I can't say, 'cause
I'm gonna give it away.

24
00:01:08.151 --> 00:01:13.073
M'benga, he's trying to help
Spock solve some issues.

25
00:01:13.073 --> 00:01:16.034
Some, perhaps, human
issues he may be having.

26
00:01:16.034 --> 00:01:20.288
He's really in conflict with
his human and Vulcan sides.

27
00:01:20.288 --> 00:01:22.040
So, he's trying to work out

28
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:24.375
how human to be, and
how useful it is to be

29
00:01:24.375 --> 00:01:26.377
more human than he has been previously.

30
00:01:26.377 --> 00:01:27.462
Where we pick up with Chapel

31
00:01:27.462 --> 00:01:30.924
is pretty much straight after Episode 9

32
00:01:30.924 --> 00:01:33.051
where Chapel and Spock have

33
00:01:33.051 --> 00:01:34.719
quite an intimate moment in the corridor.

34
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.180
They kind of start Season 2

35
00:01:37.180 --> 00:01:39.516
in a bit of a complicated place

36
00:01:39.516 --> 00:01:41.893
where it's very evident that
they both have feelings,

37
00:01:41.893 --> 00:01:43.603
but no one really wants
to do anything about it,

38
00:01:44.687 --> 00:01:46.481
and drama ensues.

39
00:01:46.481 --> 00:01:50.652
So, we pick up with Nyota
Uhura right after Season 1.

40
00:01:50.652 --> 00:01:53.530
She is still getting
comfortable on the Enterprise

41
00:01:53.530 --> 00:01:55.031
but she definitely has a few more

42
00:01:55.031 --> 00:01:56.741
incredible experiences under her belt,

43
00:01:56.741 --> 00:01:59.702
and she's just really excited
to continue her journey here.

44
00:01:59.702 --> 00:02:01.996
What I see from the fans is
that they want more Ortegas,

45
00:02:01.996 --> 00:02:03.706
and at the top of Season 2

46
00:02:03.706 --> 00:02:05.166
that's what they're gonna get.

47
00:02:06.793 --> 00:02:08.169
The crew is gonna face

48
00:02:08.169 --> 00:02:10.130
a whole bunch of new journeys this year.

49
00:02:10.130 --> 00:02:11.714
And we're gonna do something in Season 2

50
00:02:11.714 --> 00:02:13.800
that's never been done in
any Star Trek show before.

51
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:15.760
When they first pitched the idea

52
00:02:15.760 --> 00:02:18.054
and said we're gonna
do a crossover episode

53
00:02:18.054 --> 00:02:18.888
with Lower Decks,

54
00:02:18.888 --> 00:02:20.306
I was like, "That's brilliant."

55
00:02:20.306 --> 00:02:21.141
I'll never forget it.

56
00:02:21.141 --> 00:02:22.559
It was an amazing episode to film.

57
00:02:22.559 --> 00:02:25.061
We are delighted to be able to offer up

58
00:02:25.061 --> 00:02:27.730
another set of varying tones,

59
00:02:27.730 --> 00:02:30.316
another set of varying story structures,

60
00:02:30.316 --> 00:02:33.611
and deepening and evolving
character stories.

61
00:02:34.571 --> 00:02:36.072
I would like the ship to go.

62
00:02:37.991 --> 00:02:38.825
Now.
