    While Jurati certainly sounds like a South Asian surname, it's actually a Latin word - the plural of Juratus, which means witness or oathbound.

    It's the same root word that juror comes from.

    Combined with her first name, her name literally means pure/holy witness.

    There's been a discussion re: the naming of planets during this particular story arc, if memory serves...?

    Oh, ok. I thought you were referring to character names.

    There's apparently going to finally be some development on this side however.

    I hope they don't let Jurati cover it all up without suspicion.

    Raffi will get to the bottom of it.

    I used the spoiler tag for comedic effect, I don't really think Agnes is Khan.

    Kurtzman Trek always does this with the preview images. I think it's for two reasons. One is it gives nothing away about the plot. Two, these stills don't actually require any VFX.

    I have a feeling that the dormant Borg on that derelict cube are going to be waking up. But maybe that will be the cliffhanger ending for this episode? Just speculating..

    Its highly likely, they will provide the perfect cover for Soji and Picard to escape.

    Its also highly likely that either Picard or Soji will be the ones to wake them up.
