Are you watching the next episode trailers?
Pimp hats with ostrich feathers. Works every time.
Anyway it does show them going there in next week's preview. Maybe the cube lets Locutus in.
They'll do a repeat of what we've seen with Elnor/Raffi etc.
Hugh: You think after ditching us for 30 years you can just fly in here and ask for whatever you want?
Picard: I'm sorry who are you again?
Hugh: Sigh.
Picard: Oh wait, I think I remember. Third of Five??!!
Hugh:
Picard: Bring Soji to me.
Hugh (in the tradition of every other character on this show who hates Picard after he ditched them for over a decade): Yes, Admiral.
I don't watch trailers. It takes the fun out of guessing.
You might want to take those Rose-Colored glasses off and review Trek History.
Star Trek actually tells us right from the get-go that humans in the future are trying to achieve that goal, not that they have completely.
There are so many examples of 23rd & 24th Century People not yet getting there, that I don't even know where to begin.

But you're asking a question about next week's episode and you are going to be informed about it by everyone who DID see the trailer.
Two people in on a ship
sailor 1: "I wonder what is across the sea. What do you think?"
sailor 2: "Another continent. There are a lot of people there, and some interesting animals. I saw this one.."
sailor 1: "But we don't know that"
sailor 2: "Yes we do. I was on the last voyage.I was there. Wait, weren't you there for the captain's speech before we set sail?"
sailor 1: "I did not want to ruin the mystery. I never go to those"
sailor 2: "then why did you ask what was across the sea?"
sailor 1: "because no one knows. it could be empty"
sailor 2: "it really couldn't.. nevermind."
On TOS we learned that there were only a handful of crazy people left in the whole galaxy and these were cured by the end of the episode. I'll say that's quite an accomplishment!
7th episode. It's pretty clear from the trailers and the like they pick up Soji next week, then Picard takes Soji to Riker's house...wherever that is.
I really doubt it. It's not an actual life imprisonment sentence crime in most civilised countries. She'd spend a few years in a rehabilitation colony.
And it really didn't seem that she was mind controlled at all. Mislead, at most.
Hey, maybe it's on Betazed!!
So, improving mental health automatically means humans have evolved? I'm a mental health practitioner and even I find that odd...
In France, she'd get at most twenty years but if they can find extenuating circumstances it could be only five.

What do you find odd? Being immune to madness would definitely be a major improvement, don't you think?
Exactly. If there is a big age difference, it is practically always that the guy is the one older.
And it is not just the extreme cases where the man could be the father or grandfather of the female character. Soji is played by an actress who just turned 21 last month while Narek is played by an actor who is 35 and this age gap is really obvious. The writing of couse also doesn't help making me see what she might see in him, but the optical age difference doesn't help either. Soji must think she was only a toddler when he was an adult already. In reality most women as young as her wouldn't think of dating someone in their mid 30s. They rather think of them as "antique" instead of a viable love interest. But again the minority of these kinds of relationships are totally overrepresented in series and movies, too.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_disparity_in_sexual_relationships
According to a survey from 2013 among heterosexual married couples in the USA in only 7.4 % of marriages is the man 10 or more years older than the woman. Briones and Treadayway are nearly 15 years apart. A husband being 15 years or more older than his wife only happens in 2.6 % of all marriages. These big age differences are quite rare, but on TV you can see them all the time.

Just look at these graphs for example. Big age gaps between actors playing love interests are very common in the media and sexims is really the only reason for it. Star Trek shouldn't add to it.
Do these threads count as clinical research?So, improving mental health automatically means humans have evolved? I'm a mental health practitioner and even I find that odd...
