Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

Have a ten-year-old kid show up named Phillip. Adam Soong can call him "one of my greatest achievements."
 
True about there still being time, but there isn't much. Also, while the mercy just made their first appearance, they were mentioned several episodes ago.
Takes like two seconds for Soong to call one of the mercs "Green". Not sure we'll be spending a lot of time getting to know "Green Squadron". ;)
 
On a side note, and I don't know if mentioned before: PIC is the only series which does not make usage of the original series typefont for the words 'Star Trek', but instead, uses the updated variation initially created for DSC S1 and S2. From DSC S3 onwards, ALL series have used the original TOS font (DSC, LDS, PRO, SNW), except PIC... They made a clear attempt to unify the ST logo, wonder why it wasn't done for PIC as well......?
 
I was thinking the other night that someone else might be the goth Borg Queen.

She knows to tell JL to "look up". That was mother Picard's line, or else someone who's been inside JL's mind. Therefore it's Tallinn.
Tallinn has to sacrifice herself to extract the Borg Queen from Jurati. It makes sense.

Unless it's the more obvious, but unlikely option of...

Picard's mother herself. She is in the future at this point.
 
This season has just been pretty mediocre so far. Nuggets of good scenes that don't come together in a cohesive whole. A bunch of good characters who don't come together as an ensemble at all. No consistency in tone, extreme contrivance to the point of arbitrariness.

Like, I don't care that Picard should have had memories of his mother as an old woman (Although I guess that's based on one hallucination that's interpretable as what she *would* have looked like), but what they did instead doesn't tie into who he became as a person at all. It's like they're trying to retread what they did with him in Generations but not in a way with any clear message that ties into the character we know.

And I'm all for having emotional content in the story but Seven suddenly snapping at Rafi like a couple in marriage counseling just for pointing out that she has experience as a Borg that could help them in the current apocalyptic situation they find themselves in seems petty and not relevant to the current crisis. Like none of the characters but Picard have more than teenage level emotional development. That's a 'Downtime' kind of fight to have. Not a 'While we're fighting to prevent the history of mankind from being undone' fight.
