They’re in disguise :rolleyes:
Wow, the Betazed guy went straight from kind of a dick to total evil. WTF?
Barking up the wrong tree there, honey. 
“Nevin, I changed my appearance, like you asked…”
The secret of starting a successful relationship. 
Running around with the eeeeevil cardassian for too long?
Don’t you mean…
…wait for it…
…Keeping up with the Cardassians? :groucho:
I don’t remember romulans having that pronounced a ridge on the forehead?
Oooooh that was bad…
I think they did in their first appearance in TOS. They’ve changed a lot over the decades.
That’s a post-TOS thing. I guess they were jealous of the Klingons.
From Memory Alpha:
Most Romulans had two brow ridges above the bridge of their nose, forming a V-shape on the forehead. However, a minority of Romulans lack these ridges, making them outwardly indistinguishable from Vulcans.
[INDENT]These “browless” Romulans were predominant in the 23rd century, (TOS; Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) but were not seen in the 24th century en masse until Nero and his crew in Star Trek. No in-universe explanation has ever been given for the difference in appearance. StarTrek.com suggested that the ridged majority of Romulans were a different race that evolved on Vulcan simultaneously with them. [X]wbm In an interview, Neville Page, the head art designer for Star Trek 2009 had a different explanation. During his work on the movie, he first created a back-story to justify the change their faces had undergone, explaining that as a result of their grief, anger, and general bad-ass persona, the Romulans chose to cut and scar themselves, leaving behind such significant keloids on their foreheads that it eventually wended its way into the gene pool over many years, eventually becoming a natural characteristic of all Romulans and thus creating the distinct difference between them and their Vulcan cousins.

According to a deleted scene in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, General Korrd indicated in a conversation with Caithlin Dar that Romulan women may have a unique anatomical makeup, although such comments were never substantiated.[/INDENT]
Lamarckism in Trek? :eek:
I like the upholstered Romulans. Very old school. 
Epigenetics is all the rage these days.
I like the Tholian ship design.
Wait, is he just now coming out as gay?
That’s not terribly enlightened for the 24th century. :eyebrow:
He might be realizing he’s bi.
Even that. I can see that being a post-pubescent revelatory moment in a relatively sexually repressed society, but the Federation is supposed to be past all that, aren’t they? Picard said that they can detect the seeds of criminal behavior in the psychological make-up; is sexuality really that much more complex?
Well, you’d have reason to do a pre-crime scan. Would you have reason to do a pre-prediliction scan?
I’d think that both would just be part of routine medical checkups. It’s not like privacy is particularly valued in the future. :rolleyes:
