Yeah, the whole thing about the Travelers and Supervisors watching over the galaxy and also recruiting people from history really makes you question where they were throughout all of Star Trek's history.
And what's the point of having temporal investigators/timecops, etc?
 
If Jurati's Borg aren't connected to the "normal" Borg...what happens when the two meet? Because you KNOW they will. :borg:

Also, I find it extremely likely that Project Khan is a deliberate reference to the Eugenics Wars of 1996. Whether nor not Adam Soong actually created Khan, or just had a hand in it (or indeed he could have just been looking at someone else's research), remains to be seen.

In any case, looks like the fears of Terry :censored:ing Matalas playing fast and loose with the timeline of the E-Wars were largely unfounded.

As for Q dying: In "Death Wish" he said he hoped he would make a worthy student of Quinn (who definitely wanted to die). Perhaps Q's own death is the ultimate manifestation of that? Quinn got to die, so this opened the floodgates for other Q's to die if they so chose.

Perhaps they were not big enough to overwhelm the full Collective with their own. So they waited until the opportune moment to join, allowing their will to supersede over the previous Queen in her absence. A real coup if you will.

Or it could simply be his idea for a master race or a king race, as inspired by past genetic experimentation, which he was already shown to be enamored with.
 
Well I thought that was an absolute belter. A wonderful cameo and Q's sendoff was definitely touching. Yes, the overall season's pacing may have been uneven – but god I love these characters and I can't wait to see what season three brings.
 
Hopefully all Q.

But, probably just this Q.
Where's the spinoff series with Q's son??

There's a not unbelievable fan theory Q made up the rest of the Continuum and every encounter with other Q is just Q impersonating them.

Which isn't probably canon but I always liked as it explained goofier episodes as continuing the trial.
I guess that'd make the Voyager episode where he has "sex" with another Q to create a new Q a form of godlike masturbation. lol

Jesus, that's brilliant. We did see how he could create a copy of himself (VOY 'Death Wish') and create scenarios he couldn't anticipate (TNG 'Qpid'). Neat to think of all those other Qs merely being representative of his personality. No wonder he didn't want to die alone.

Unlikely. "Khan" is just too loaded a word. That's definitely not a coincidence.

And the file was dated 1996, which is when the Eugenics Wars took place. That's not happenstance either. :)

Apparently, the US military commissioned Khan and he took over a huge chunk of Asia.

So, yeah, that tracks with some terrible CIA plans.

Deja Q would seem to blow that theory to pieces. Why would Q pretend to have no powers, and then pretend to be a second Q who appears to Q with no one else present and have a conversation with him and gives his powers back?
