Star Trek: Lower Decks' Tendi and Rutherford enjoyed a big Season 4 development when she returned to the Orion homeworld after negotiating for a battleship to help Starfleet. While we know from Season 5 clips we'll see Orion Pirate Tendi in full effect , trailers have also shown her reunion with best Starfleet buddy Rutherford. So, will their time apart lead their relationshio into a potential romance? I have some answers from Eugene Cordero and Nöel Wells, and have some thoughts about how they responded.
I had the honor of talking to the cast of Lower Decks before the final season premiere for those with a Paramount+ subscription . Of course, I had to ask about what "surprises" may happen between Tendi and Rutherford and had the voice actors responsible give their takes on it, and I feel like I learned a lot. How Eugene Cordero and Nöel Wells Described Rutherford And Tendi's Relationship In Season 5 Without any upcoming Trek series guaranteed to feature Tendi or Rutherford, I had to ask if fan shippers of the duo will be satiated by this final Lower Decks season.
Here's how Eugene Cordero responded when I asked about "surprises" in store for Rutherford's relationship with Tendi: Not surprises necessarily. I think they constantly get surprised by each other of how well they are connected. There's just more of that.
I mean, the cool thing that you don't get to see on shows, especially comedies, is a couple just being really great friends and that's it. I mean, we don't kno.
