His new friend is definitely the new Sarah Silverman character.

City on the Edge of Forever was kind of the opposite.
And "Carpenter Street(ENT)" meant telling the male human antagonist from 2004 (Loomis, played by Leland Orser) about what was happening. I don't remember any woman in 21st century Detroit being let in on the Xindi-Reptillian plot.
I had the same thought. They'll either be trapped in the past like in the Stargate SG-1 episodes Mobius Parts 1 & 2 or die to ensure the correct timeline like in Stargate: Continuum.
:drink take:
Sorry if this has already been mentioned already but Lea "Lorainne Back to the Future" Thompson directed this episode. Thought that was pretty cool.

And when he accidentally cuts himself and oozes green blood to astonished oohs and aahs, he could simply volunteer that he's been micro dosing himself with Prestone anti-freeze to transform it to that color since he was nine.
Kirk never came clean with Edith.
A Rain Robinson cameo would be awesome. I think the Chronowerx Industries building had a cameo...
Here is the scene where Jurari connects to the Borg Queen.
It is a brilliant scene IMO. Allison Pill's acting is terrific, the way she changes to express the emotions of the different "rooms" in her subconscience. The cinematography is also fantastic, the use of the camera angles. I love the shot of all three characters, like a trinity, with the Borg Queen elevated above them. And the shots back and forth between Jurati and the Queen are great. I also love when the voices switch and Jurati speaks as the Borg Queen and the Borg Queen speaks as Jurati. The writing is terrific. The music also really adds tension. Just fantastic!

The Chronoworx building is a real building in LA, Metropolitan Transportation Agency.

Another DS9 reference possibly spotted in a photo gallery for the episode on the official website, but I don't know if it's visible in the final episode.

Someone reading a physical newspaper? This really is an alternate/not "our" 2024.
I love that line from the Borg Queen, "What you've done here is far more difficult and dangerous... you've impressed me!" Chills.
I'm now leaning towards Jurati becoming the Black BQ, too. They've been hitting us over the head with references to her being lonely and more comfortable with machines than people. At first I suspected it was to set up ome kind of bonding storyline (and we now know she wished Picard was her daddy!), but probably that wasn't the reason.
And there are tons of Trek ways to time travel - convenient temporal wormholes opening up, a Very Special Anomaly, time cops restoring them to their original TL... If all else fails, Q can always snap his fingers.
Interesting idea, but... Would season 3 be all "Our heroes mastering the past aka almost-our-present?" I don't see it.

That part really sold me on her as the Borg Queen. I mean he crawling on the floor, "allow me", then the lines she cites while preparing the time warp were all good; but the way she delivered this line really felt chilling. Something you wouldn't want to hear from the Borg Queen.
She hasn't been this chilling since FC (including when the FC actress played her in the VGR finale.)

Janeway said they could've worn their uniforms in 96 and no one would've noticed
I first thought it's the notMaddox actor again
And next week's as well, and she'll be on the Ready Room
