Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

The Roger Korby androids could copy a biological subject's mind down to the smallest memories.

They couldn't cope with basic emotion, so that is a big strike out.

No wonder McCoy never liked androids. Sorry, Data.

Would that mean that giving Data the responsibility of being McCoy's tour guide was Picard's way of insulting Admiral McCoy? And we thought Liam Shaw was cold.

Not necessarily Picard's decision. It could have been whoever was acting first officer for the trip to Deneb V. It would also mean that Picard was aware of the likes and dislikes of a geriatric Admiral who he likely never spent any time with.

Data was probably just the one who was available and thus chosen to be the tour guide.

It's a flag officer so an officer within the chain of command as a line officer would be appropriate as an escort.

And as early as the first half of Season 1. The Roger Korby androids could copy a biological subject's mind down to the smallest memories.

Yes, and reasonably that knowledge and Sargon's might have supported what gave us Picard.

Not even a tour guide, Data was just taking McCoy from the Enterprise to the Hood via shuttle.
