THIS PAGE IS A WORK IN PROGRESS

Lora Baines (played by actress Cindy Morgan) is one of the key characters in TRON. She and Walter Gibbs created the laser that was responsible for transporting Kevin Flynn to the Digital World.

TRON
Although Lora's age and background are not known, she was first introduced during the movie as a computer scientist (and perhaps physicist) working directly for ENCOM founder Walter Gibbs, with whom she worked in the digitization lab.

During the movie, she learned from her then-boyfriend Alan Bradley, that his access had been canceled due to a security breach within ENCOM. Lora was immediately suspicious that her former boyfriend and ex-ENCOM employee, Kevin Flynn, may have been behind the security breach. Lora then decided to warn Flynn that Ed Dillinger, the CEO of ENCOM, knew about his attempts to hack into the ENCOM mainframe.

Lora sneaked Flynn into the digitizing lab where he was unwittingly digitized by the MCP and transported into the Game Grid, a previously unknown world on the other side of the screen. Although she could do little to help him during his digital adventure, a program of hers named Yori did cross paths with him and provided aid in the conflict against the MCP. Lora's relationship with Alan was similarly reflected in a digital relationship between Yori and Tron.

Lora and Alan met up with Flynn again after his reappearance. The three had become good friends, bonded by their experience together.
