   Sounds to me like they mean she will explore her sex life. This is Berman   
   and Braga, what they lack in understanding of Trek (or scifi or character   
   development or casting or...) they make up for understanding of ratings   
   stunts.   
      
   And they will come up with some dumb premise to get her out of her Vulcan   
   make-up for one episode - "oh, look, the mysterious all-powerful being Y,   
   who is not a rip-off of Q, by the way, just transformed T'Pol in to a human!   
   Now she can explore the human condition and understand humans better, for   
   the next 42 minutes."   
      
   This next season will rank right up there with the time 7 of 9 battled the   
   Rock.
