I’m glad Ortegas is finally getting a subplot. In the previous seasons she’s always felt like she was missing “her” focus episode which other members of the crew like M’Benga got. All she had was “I fly the ship” which was a bit lame.

Thank you. It felt to me like her entire character development arc has been her coming to terms with being a great pilot? But yet at the beginning of the series we didn’t have any sense that she had self confidence issues or was anything less than outstanding.

She’s always been an excellent pilot, but then we had a single episode where she briefly loses her memory and with it her sense of identity because now her entire thing is “I fly the ship.”
