The only reason I could think to bringing back Kirk is to have him yell at Picard for not taking his advice about being an admiral.
 
Sidenote: You'd think being assimilated would cure any diseases the drone was ailing from. Hard to imagine a Borg with Irumodic Syndrom being an asset to the collective.
I’m sticking with my Philip J. Fry theory. His brain defect is actually a weapon that could pose a threat to Changelings.
 
I like how Geordi is caring about the treaty. Like the Romulans are any threat these days to make a fuss. :)

The Roman empire split in two, and one half lasted a thousand years longer than the other half.

The home world blew up.

Boo Hoo.

There's 10 thousand other planets in the Star Empire.

If a super Nova also shit out damage at warp velocities so that nearby planets 10s of light years were also fucked up, there's still 10,000 other Star systems in the Star Empire probably out of range of one super nova.

If one super nova can make 1/4 of known space uninhabitable, then the interstellar community as we know it is a hell of a lot fragile than we were led to believe.

Yes, the Klingons were brought to their knees from losing one moon.

Double boo hoo.
 
So. Challenging starfleets plan is to get the entire fleet at the museum on Frontier Day and Geordi was messaging them not to. Interesting.
 
Revitalized Picard speaks at Frontier Day. “Thanks to the Changelings I am alive. If the Federation surrenders to them we can all live forever.”

He’s both the demo and the speaker. Would be very effective.

So, if I have this right, you're saying that the Federation's archaic cultures are authority-driven, so to facilitate the Changelings' introduction into their societies, they decided that a human voice would speak for them, and Picard was chosen to be that voice?

Nah, it'll never happen. :p

yeah, what is it with Section 31 (and Starfleet) exhuming the remains of certain individuals (IE BOTH Kirk and Picard) and STORING them at a top secret laboratory facility? :wtf::rofl:

I mean, it would be exactly the kind of dipshit idea 31 would have. "We're concerned that hostile aliens will exhume Starfleet heroes and desecrate their corpses for their own malicious purposes using nightmareish, forbidden science beyond the ken of mere mortals... so we've decided to rob their graves first. We even managed to restore Jim Kirk's body into an endless living death! That's exactly what he'd want, right? It doesn't completely contradict Picard's report of the last conversation he had before he was killed?"

Was the replacement Defiant even fitted with a cloak?

We never saw it cloak. The novels assumed it got one, and the Romulans were willing to maintain the status quo if it would help keep the Dominion from coming back.

I just checked, and they did stick with it having the first Defiant's registry number, NX and all, though it's not perfectly legible. I guess me and Ron Moore can go cry into our cheap whiskey about them missing the opprotunity to retcon in that it was the Defiant-A after all.

I wonder if they did that intentionally so people who have read the novels can think it’s the Endeavor. I know it’s very unlikely but I like think that’s why they did it.
 
The USS Constellation NCC-1017 another Starship/Constellation Class ship (From TOS S2 The Doomsday Machine), would seem to bear out your hypothesis. ;)

The Constellation CLASS is the one with four nacelles. Like the Stargazer (and Shaw's old ship, the Constance).

The NCC-1017 Constellation, the one from TOS, was Constitution class.

As for the registry: We never actually knew what the USS Constitution's registry was. A lot of fans assume it was NCC-1700, but that hasn't been proven. There was a NCC-1700 in a TOS episode but we never learned its name.

Honestly don't care if the NX isn't the og enterprise. It can be.. Well any of them .im happy to see it!
 
Moriarty, Lal, B4, Geordi, Kirk's body, Tribbles, Voyager... And the Klingon bird of prey from The Voyage Home.

Loved it when they played the Voyager theme when Seven was thinking about home.

Brent Spiner played 4-5 characters.

Just an amazing synthesis of all the best of Star Trek.
