    True. I'm good with this theory, then. Picard is involved with the Academy in his role as a retired Admiral so he'd know names of people he feels he might be able to trust with sensitive information.

    It's likely they were talking about the leader of the Klingons or the leader of the Andorians.

    The person in charge of the Academy is called a Commandant.

    Loved Ro's return. Loved the characters getting their groove back.

    Disliked the intrepid being being faceless and voiceless. Disliked that the Intrepid just sat there as the disaster unfolded. Surely some of the bridge crew should have been... er Captain...

    It turns out that because we had our time change here, but the UK hasn't had it yet, it'll be at 2 pm pacific / 5 pm eastern.
    Why countries don't synchronize their time changes to at least the same day is one of those mysteries of life, I guess :rolleyes:

    Picard was chancellor of the Academy in s2 and then retired, so that new chancellor is simply his successor, I think

    The only thing that makes sense is that the shuttle's communications with Intrepid were blocked and the crew just thought Ro was headed towards the shuttlebay.

    This series is losing me. And, god, it's just ugly to look at.

    Someone mentioned that Ro's shuttle should've had a spacesuit to put herself in then fly out the airlock out of range of the transporter inhibitor. Unless the changelings beamed the spacesuits out too. Or worst case scenario jump out the airlock without the spacesuit and hope they can beam her out before she dies (I believe Archer did this in one episode of Enterprise)

    Drama.

    Have we seen any other Federation shuttles with suits?

    Not sure.

    Did they ever explain why Shaw or the Intrepid captain (changeling or no) didn't find it strange that Ro just single handedly and arbitrarily reassigned most of the Titan crew to the Intrepid?

    Shaw probably was busy singing a tune about Picard and Riker facing the music. He may not have noticed, especially if Ro told Seven to have security escort crewmembers off.... Good question about the Intrepid Captain. Maybe she said something to the Captain beforehand. :shrug:

    So it is unclear if “Starfleet Intelligence” is a part of “Starfleet”?

    Hmmm… interesting… [​IMG]

    I don't think Ro looked ugly at all. She really looked quite fetching.

    That's not what they're saying.

    Remember Worf said he wasn't working starfleet intelligence directly but considered himself a sub contractor.

    "DAY OF HONOR", Tom and B'Elanna wore suits that were in a storage compartment in the shuttlecraft Cochrane.

    So that's the second time Ro has died in the past year. First in the NovelVerse on DS9 and now here.

    The changelings plan was to make it look like the picard, Riker and maybe even Shaw tried to destroy the Intrepid. Remember that the changelings are promoting to Starfleet Command/ the Federation government is that Picard and Riker commandeered the Titan for some nefarious reason. The Intrepid was sent to bring them back; and they attacked/attempted to destroy the Intrepid while trying to make it look like an accident.
