Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x03 - "Seventeen Seconds"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Seeing that flashback scene was heartwarming between Picard and Riker and them talking about Thad. Love Deanna's scene as well.
Oh my god, that was an intense last few minutes.
I'm still having a cognitive disconnect with Jack's supposed age and his undeniably handsome yet definitely 30-ish appearance.
Also, I love this older wiser calmer Worf very much. He is delightful and kind of hot.

The de-aging in the 2381 flashback scene wasn't bad at all. Riker at moments had almost an Uncanny Valley property to his eyes and forehead but they definitely looked like only a couple of years had passed since the events of NEM.
So what do Changelings want or need with Jack Crusher? Isn't he just a worthless solid to them? (further solidified now that the Changeling on the Titan outright tried to kill him) Picard was basically irrelevant in the Dominion War unless I missed something in DS9. Shouldn't the Changelings be going after Jake Sisko?
And yeah, hate to say "I told you so" but there really was no justifiable reason for Beverly to hide Jack at all and those insisting there would be some deep revelatory reason don't seem to have been correct.

I like the new effect for a Founder in their liquid state. They kept the best things about the old DS9 effect and simply upgraded it.
Worf must have meant Odo, it's just odd that he didn't say it
I feel like it was more powerful this way, personally. Plus, there's plenty of time for him to outright name-drop Odo later on.
"Slayer of Gowron."
That line filled me with, oh, what's the word...GLORY.

I would like to see Odo again, I feel a recast could be done well and they could say that Odo perfected the human face and now looks like whoever the new actor playing him looks like.
that line was fantastic. The movies tried really hard to forget Worf was on DS9 so his introduction made me really smile. I do wonder what his official capacity is now. I can’t image he’s still federation ambassador to Quo’nos.
Damn... maybe like a 9.8? What's really crazy is this was co-written by Jane Maggs (204, 206, 207)... I guess she can do more than agitprop and dream sequences. It does tie in with Picard and his father storyline from season 2, and there's another synthetic/positronic reference.
The lighting finally seems fine, even on the bridge. DISCOVERY's Crescenzo G.P. Notarile was the DP for this episode. Credit where credit is due.
Amazing score... great to see more of the Titan interior... Worf! Changeling splinter faction! Odo implied but not named... TNG character conflict but not melodrama...
I buy the Picard / Crusher pregnancy storyline. Post-NEM is liekly the best place to slot it in.
Need to watch again, but I think this episode might wipe out "The Last Best Hope" season 1 prequel novel by having Picard on the Enterprise during the Romulan evacuation negotiations.

I don’t know of I want to see Odo again. That was Rene’s character and I don’t know if anyone else can do it justice.
If his family is fine with it I don't see why not. All the TOS characters have been recast in one way or another at this point now.
Rene didn't strike me as the kind of actor who would demand no one else play a character if he's not able to play it, but to be fair I didn't know him and am just extrapolating from what I read about him.
Exactly. Honestly it took place right around Lower Decks Season 2/3.
Lower Decks has already confirmed that Picard had left the Enterprise by 2381 and he was aboard the Verity according to the Last Best Hope and the Countdown comic.
But the foam was odd. Can you imagine the T-k with silver foam bits?
Immediately followed by: Making chamomile tea.
Clearly the Great Link has experimented with root beer and chili dogs.

I don't think Riker should've dressed down Picard in front of the crew, it was unprofessional. Yes, that backfired attack was Picard's suggestion but Riker was the one who followed through on it. I find this hard to believe this is the same Riker who kept his cool and ordered to ram into the Borg ship during the presumed assimilation of Earth in Best of Both Worlds.
Riker should've just taken Picard aside and said to stay in his quarters and that would've been that. It wouldn't have changed anything anyway. The showrunners hyped up there'd be conflict between the TNG crew but I think they're overdoing it, or doing it in a way that comes off as artificial. Case in point the basic character assassination of Beverly Crusher--the TNG Beverly never would've kept Picard from his son.
