Patrick Stewart once kissed his BFF Ian McKellan IRL. Why not?
Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 1x09 - "Et in Arcadia Ego, Part 1"
- Thread starter pst
- Start date
But it will turn out the babys have goatees because they are from mirror Kelvinverse and Janice Rand is their mother
@KennyB. Just curious, but what's the policy re $poilers for unreleased episode trailers? I only come into these topics once I've seen the episode in question, this can't be spoiled on it, but I do not watch the trailers, but, as above, people here discuss those, too.
I think that's why Jurati is going to be in charge of the "golem". She's supposed to transfer Soong, but will resurrect Data instead. That mention in episode 1 was too clear for them to just drop it later when you have a new android body that looks like Data just waiting for a new brain.
Does Sirena even HAVE a brig?
Perhaps that's Picard's endgame: resurrecting Data.
My guess is that a prisoner would be watched at gunpoint, confined behind a force field or locked inside a storage compartment or room. Runabouts aren't much smaller or are roughly the same size and you really couldn't do much with prisoners other than watch them.
Transferring Data's mind into a new body would've resolved the issue that Spiner declines to play him anymore since he gets old. A new and younger Data would've ensured his future in the Trek-verse for decades to come
I see a lot of posts talking about Picard’s mind being transferred to an android. What a horrible idea, I am hoping the writers are better than that.
Picard being played by someone other than sir Patrick, when he is still available, is idiotic. And if the android looks like him it is just as bad, and I doubt if PS would agree to play an android version of his character.
so this is not happening. Of course I was similarly sure that the terrible idea of Lorca being from the mirror universe was not happening either.

Now, now, let's not be unkind. Chabon is a legitimately great writer.
The spectacular failure of "Picard" is definitely a group effort.
What I took from this episode was that Sutra executed a perfect false flag operation and that the Romulans are now the good guys.
Though I know it won't happen, I would really hope that the Romulans would win and destroy all these synths. I have no sympathy for them.
And, the reason for the hostility between organics and synthetics is absurd to me. Organics yearn perfection so they build machines which are close to perfection. These machines don't age, like organics, so organics come to fear them and, driven by fear, come to destroy them. Nothing about slavery, nothing about exploitation.

Dukat was an ally, and on relatively good terms with most of the station's crew, throughout S4 and S5. He definitely wasn't depicted as a "Bad Guy".
He doesn't have to be inside the robot. maybe you put the synth brain inside of him. transfer all his marbles in there, plug him in and bam, hope it works out better than that whole Vedek Bareil thing
Even at his most "allied" they showed him as moustache twirling evil, like blowing up the Klingons when his Klingon holoprojector wasn't working in Apocalypse Rising. Right in Season 5.
P.S. So, how about all that constant lightning on the planet they identified because it has two red moons and continuous lightning storms?
Sunny day
Sweeping the clouds away...
I did see some dark clouds in the corner of the sky at a couple points in the episode.
Can't rate it except as an expository episode, which it did quite well, I suppose 8 worthy. Part II better build to a crescendo though, or the season might end on a flat note.
