To be sure, we're jumping to conclusions based on somebody just saying "We haven't met since the Tomed mission" or words to that effect to T'Pol.
Tomed *might* be a place where this mission took place. Or then it's Vulcanese for "Overlord" or "Torch" or "Coridani Freedom". Or the Vulcan synonym for frell (as in, "We really tomed that mission, now didn't we, T'Pol?"). Or then T'Med is the name of another agent serving with T'Pol and the guard. Or the guy they were supposed to assassinate. Or then a Romulan starship that they were supposed to blow up, one out of a continuous line of ships thus named....

Yeah, I juest checked, and it was just "the Tomed mission". So, I guess, ignore the last line of my earlier post.

Mabye it's the midway point between Andoria and Vulcan. Something strategic at any rate.

Well even if it lies between Andoria and Vulcan, what Romulan incident would occur there? A botched Romulan invasion to Vulcan?

Or a horrible failed Romulan Transwarp experiment resulting in their entire race having "Moe Hair" forever.

On Romulus there must be both ridged and non-ridged Romulans... otherwise Spock would have had to have been surgically altered to allow him to wander Romulus so easily.

True. Obviously Picard went to resonable lengths to conceal his own identity, but if I recall correctly, Spock simply donned Romulan garbs. Maybe he was allowed onto the planet as an ambassador. :/

More likely that it would have taken away from the OMGIT'SSPOCK-ness of the whole thing.
