Scotty’s appearance in the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 finale explains why showrunners Akiva Goldsman and Henry Alonso Myers clammed up when asked about the character during an interview with ComicBook.com ahead of the season’s premiere. We know that Scotty eventually becomes the Enterprise‘s Chief Engineer, and Pelia (Carol Kane) is only filling the role on a temporary basis. Whether this means Scotty becomes part of the regular cast in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 remains to be seen. By likely coincidence, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds may be setting up Spock and Scotty’s first meeting at the same time that they’ve finally been reunited more than a century later.
Mr. Scott in the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 finale.
An away team from the enterprise consisting of Captain Pike, Doctor M’Benga, La’an Noonien Singh (Christina Chong), and Erica Ortegas (Melissa Navia) make the dangerous trip to Parnassus Beta after the Gorn strike the colony. There, they meet Mr. Scott, who had been on a research station struck by the Gorn. Scotty fled from the Gorn and miraculously managed to survive by using a device he created from repurposed, but he only made it as far as Parnassus Beta, the next planet in his path.
Pike and Captain Batel (Melanie Scrofano) join Scott in attempting to get back to his crashed shuttle and retrieve his device in the hopes that it will help the away team and the colonists escape the planet. The three of them make it back to the ship (which apparently marks Scotty’s first time aboard the Enterprise), where we learn that Scotty was among Pelia’s brightest students at Starfleet Academy despite his terrible grades. Scott is still aboard the Enterprise when the “To be continued” shows up at the end of the cliffhanger episode.
