Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x09 - "Võx"

[Nerys Myk]

The ship display shows the Oberon, Gilgamesh, Okuda, Sutherland, Ganymede, Callisto, Venture, Drexler, Huygens, Akira

Resnik, Excelsior, Clark, Ross, Magellan, Appalachia, Gagarin, Reliant, Tourangeau, Reliant, Thunderchild, Harlan, another Clark?, John Kelly, Forrest, Zheng He, Helios, Shackleton, Christopher

Any non-Terran names out there?

So Seven and Raffi stayed aboard the Titan to save Shaw, I assume? Because where else did they go. lol

That's what I saw. I assume they and the Titan will figure in the final episode.

This Bridge is too dark. This other Bridge is too bright.

Yeah, i mentioned this in my review too. It seems like neither really would want to work with the other. They're both based on the total subjugation of other species, or at least complete control.

Nah, it was just to create a spectacle. Look, it's not just the Changelings!!! It's them plus the BORG!

Despite facing both threats, we still only have a single episode for the resolution!

It's not the Founders, or at least not the Changelings who are part of the Great Link that's in control of the Dominion. Worf's lines to Raffi when he meets her implies Odo warned Worf about the threat, which would imply the Dominion isn't part of this.

It's a renegade sect of Changelings that wants revenge and willing to work with the Borg to achieve it.

I know I'm coming in late and well past many conversations... but "The Borg haven't been heard from in over 10 years?"

Umm yea... Except for last season on Star Trek Picard. Did that like not even happen? Wouldn't that have been an appropriate time/point to reference something?

Also was cool to Shelby, but honestly if she was killed there it does kinda feel like karma cuz Riker brought up what I was thinking lol. Hell they already had a problem before with ships controlled by AI/cybernetic minds so yea let's just link up the whole fleet... What could go wrong?

 

[Mr Awe]

Makes me wonder what the in-universe point of the Scary Face was, if Vadic knew she was talking to the Borg Queen.

Yeah, that is weird one. And why did the Queen appear to her that way? Was the Queen controlling a Changeling?

Vadic and her hand were unceremoniously dumped from the story!

We are the Canadian Borg. Resistance would be impolite. Please RSVP to be assimilated.

(Pour l'assimilation en francais, veuillez appuyer sur le '2'.)

FTFY

Different Borg collective.

This Bridge is too dark. This other Bridge is too bright.

And tbe Enterprise F bridge lighting is just right..

 

[The Old Mixer]

Oh billy badass lol.

You're not exactly setting a good example here.

Sounds unhealthy and something that anyone with scruples wouldn't want to encourage.Keep farming those paid photographs and signatures, scumbags...

I haven't even caught up on all of your posts yet; and I'll be the first to argue that this forum isn't supposed to be a bubble for people who like the show; it's for people with negative opinions as well. But you need to tone down the aggressiveness if you don't want to start earning warnings. In this case, as it's a given that many posters here do attend conventions, referring to convention-goers as "scumbags" might be considered flaming, and could certainly be taken as trolling.

There is far too much noise out there.

And you've been contributing more than your share today. It may be time to go cool off a little.

Press F to pay respects.

Here's a question for the group:

What possible purpose did it serve for the Borg to communicate with Vadic through the thing on her hand?

I know the story reason why it exists (i.e., we need to keep it a mystery for the audience who this mysterious face is that appears off a pile of protoplasm), but what would be the in-universe reason for why it was necessary? Vadic is on-board the Shrike among her crew of Changelings when she speaks to them about Jack. There's no reason for Vadic to keep her co-conspirators a secret.

To manipulate them with pain.

... Anyone see any Cali Class???? ...

Every ship in the fleet.. Except the Cali Class.. F#!% them..

 

[Noname Given]

That's ok. I brought my own lights.

Scene from Episode 10:

Picard (On 1701-D Bridge, to Geordi): "How many lights overhead?"

Geordi: "There are 5 lights...How many do you see?"

Picard: "THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!" >Collapses and assumes fetal position<

Riker and Troi (In Unison): "Dammit Geordi!"

Um, that goes without saying...

 

[valkyrie013]

Jack Quaid as Captain Boimler .. Riding in on the Ceritos to save the day or im rioting!!

 

[TRON JA307020]

I also loved that they saved Majels voice for the D. Pretty sneaky but it worked out great.

 

[jaime]

The one thing I don't understand is... what was the Queen's original plan with Picard's tailor-made receiver-transmitter genes? The one we saw executed not only hinges on a third party intentionally propagating it through individual transporter units, but also on him having naturally conceived offspring who inherits his genome in a specific way that allows him to act as a transmitter for the assimilation signal when plugged into the Collective. How would that work with what we have seen with Locutus acting as a mouthpiece for what appears to be a standard send-a-single-cube assimilation plan?

I get the impression that it was an unexpected bonus to the collective rather than an outright plan — that or she really did intend to be the ones making babies with Locutus, and this is just a different outcome. Ties in with all the ‘evolution’ speeches.

 

[jaime]

Like we did in 1987 with TOS????

1979 with TMP though…
(And we did visit a few people and places later too on TV)
