Nurse Chappelle’s Strange New Worlds Discovery May Be Explained by Star Trek: Discovery’s Klingon War

As a war veteran, Chappell may have known about surgically-altered Klingon spies

Nurse Chappell’s invention to turn Starfleet officers into aliens can be explained by Star Trek: Discoverys Klingon War. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2, Episode 8, “Under the Cloak of War”, reveals more details about Nurse Chapel’s experience as a veteran of the Klingon War with the Federation. Chappell was deployed to J’Gal, where she was Dr. Joseph M’Benga (Babs Olasunmokun) chief nurse in Starfleet’s Mobile Combat Surgical Unit. There, Chappell may have been exposed to Klingon sleeper agents like Taylor/VocWhich may have inspired Christine Chappell to start working on a more humane method for Starfleet to have its own undercover agents.

Starfleet’s undercover agents could also be used for humanitarian purposes, such as seamless integration into pre-warp alien populations during first contact missions. Knowing that the Klingon method is brutal and irreversible, Nurse Chappell would theorize that there is a better way to turn someone into a different alien species, and invent it herself. Instead of physically reforming a patient’s body, Chappell’s method alters the subject’s DNA with samples from the target species. Chappell’s hipspray-based method is still painful, but far more humane, and results in Starfleet officers being temporarily indistinguishable from aliens until their original DNA reasserts itself.
