Here we have a ceremony with Beverly and Jean Luc's child offering some flowers to a Borg on their admittance into the Federation
Yeah! That's rather unthinkable! I can buy into the idea of a tribble commanding a starship more easily! So far, for concept, this one takes the cake! Sincerely, Bill
The rain, while sort of funny, really doesn't work since they could easily just throw up a force field.....and that's assuming that they don't have weather control tech or that they just have zero ability with all their advanced technology to predict the weather for that day. It's like they don't really want to welcome the Borg and are just being dicks to everyone at the ceremony by letting them get rained on. The sunny images work better IMO.
Picard's got a history with malfunctioning weather control. and i might swap the pistol for a Chicago Typewriter.
Well I figured that it would be very ominous to have the Borg invited to Earth. All the technology couldn't stop mother nature cursing.
I think the sunny version works better, to be honest... Given the Federation is always so happy and hunky-dory Utopian. Cheers, -CM-
