Last time we saw the former Emperor of the Terran Empire (full title: her most Imperial Majesty, Mother of the Fatherland, Overlord of Vulcan, Dominus of Qo’noS, Regina Andor), the Guardian of Forever had sent her back in time from the distant future of the 32nd century.
In the meantime, Yeoh has won herself an Oscar for “Everything Everywhere All at Once“, while Georgiou has been running a nightclub way beyond Federation space. That’s where we find the reformed tyrant when Section 31 — Starfleet’s morally flexible spy branch — knocks on her door, looking to recruit her for a top-secret mission that could shape the future of the entire Federation.
