She’s already wrapped S2 of Ted, and clearly she likes working with Seth, so since Lysella stayed on board in the end, wouldn’t it be awesome if she became a recurring character or even a cast member?

If she does return, it would be good to see her be like a Dr. Taylor from The Voyage Home, someone out of place in time (as it were) but putting her skills to use in the Union none-the-less.

Well, except Dr. Taylor was a marine biologist with a PhD, whereas Lysella was a barista/cashier. But my thoughts were that since we're already inevitably dealing with a bit of time lapse which it is likely they will integrate in the story where they pickup, it could be presented that she's been through the academy and is now a junior officer. She would integrate right into the setting in a perfectly plausible way.
