While it was possibly just for the sake of naturalistic dialogue, the Una/Pike scene was definitely written in such a way that it hyped up their ideal lawyer - intentionally circling but not stating their identity - a she, who is avoiding their calls.

“Did you manage to contact her?” “She’s avoiding my calls.” “Mine too.”

Is this going to be some kind of deep cut cameo? Can anyone recall a TOS era (or ENT depending on species) female character who was or could now logically be a lawyer?

    Is it possible it’s T’pol? Could she still be alive? According to memory Alpha some Vulcans lived to be around 220 years old, so I think she would be around 180 during SNW?

      That would be amazing, but I have to assume that if Jolene Blalock were guest starring, we’d have heard about it by now.

    There is a promo out with some scenes from Una’s trial, and her advocate seems like she might be just a spotlight character of the week, not necessarily a callback to anything in particular. But I could be wrong.
