That sounds a lot worse that missile toes.
 
 

Fred says to Joe, "I found this pen, is it yours?"
Joe replies, "Don't know, give it here."
He then uses it and says "Yes, it is."
Fred asks, "How do you know?"
Joe replies, "That's my handwriting."

Hemmer was one of my favorite characters in Season 1, but I don't want to see him come back. Unlike certain other Trek characters I could mention (Tasha Yar, Jadzia Dax), Hemmer's death had meaning. To bring him back would cheapen his sacrifice. I don't want Hemmer to become the Jean Grey of Strange New Worlds.
 
But I agree that Carol Kane's character is a placeholder, just as Hemmer was. I know this because neither character has a proper Scottish accent. 
 
One thing I missed in my earlier post: Dr. M'Benga has a dark past, and it doesn't involve his daughter. I wonder how big a deal they're planning to make of it.
