10 MORE Huge Revelations You Missed From Star Trek: Prodigy (Season 2)

2. Wesley And Fellow Travellers

From behind a vault door, Wesley Crusher stepped out through the mist, orange sweater first. In December 2023, the Hagemans had said that there were "bigger characters than the Doctor in season two that are not Voyager-related," but the former (acting) Ensign of the Enterprise-D was a shock.

Wesley's reveal in The Devourer of All Things, Part I, was only part of it. His starring role throughout the rest of the season was a triumph. Once so misunderstood and maligned, he got his chance to shine, show his true potential, and thrive. Fans welcomed him with open arms. The voice of THE Traveller (over two giant statues of himself), actor Eric Menyuk returned in cameo form.

There were revelations about the Travellers as a whole, not the least of which was their trans-dimensional time ziggurat. That served, at least in part, as a training facility for their "field agents," the Supervisors, with one very "groovy," Gary Seven-esque, hidden room. 

We also learnt that the Travellers had been hit hard by the Temporal Wars. There simply weren't "many left to repair timelines". All remaining Travellers had found the Protostar paradox "too impossible to fix," and high-tailed it out of the Prime universe as a result. Perhaps they fled to the "Narada Incursion."

Wesley stuck around in Prime because that's where his Mum lived. Season two gave us cameos from Doctor Beverly Crusher. For the first, over the comm with Admiral Janeway, Doctor Noum had "twisted some arms at Starfleet Medical". Beverly was "surprisingly hard to track down these days" (the early-to-mid 2380s).

For the second, Wesley finally paid his Mum a visit. There, in London, he also got to meet his younger brother Jack, who never did shake the accent.
