Returning to a planet that dredges up tragic memories, Captain Pike and his landing party find themselves forgetting everything, including their own identities as he confronts a ghost from his past.
I’m primarily curious about Batel’s job responsibilities. Her main job seems to be as a JAG officer but she also has a field command on the Cayuga?
She was in command of the Cayuga in “A Quality of Mercy” as well - it seems that’s her regular gig, and she was assigned Una’s prosecution because…well, that’s how Starfleet rolls, I guess.
I think she was asked by starfleet since she was close, then asked to do jag duty (?!) As a test of her fitness for higher command, which she should have passed.
Everyone knows that ship captains are the best lawyers. That’s why starfleet keeps using them as attorneys in all their trials
