The episode Liasons

[Nakita Akita]

Picard determined that there was a structure 2 km from the crashed shuttle with him and the alien, so he is going out to walk to the structure.
It looks like he has only gone a very short distance when he is knocked out by the Lightning.(or whatever it was supposed to be, it looked like lightning)
So then he gets dragged 2km by a skinny little woman?
Why didn't he think that was odd?
Shouldn't he have been way more leery of her from the start?
I think that was what I didn't like about the episode. Well, Picard's section of the episode. They had him acting SO clueless.
As a skinny woman if my Boyfriend falls over and can't get up, I could try to drag him. But he is probably going to be REALLY torn up when I get him to wherever.
Anyway, I just found him not wondering at all about that sort of beyond belief.

 

[Mojochi]

It's possible. There are many techniques for transporting an injured person, not the least of which is to fashion a sled to drag him on. She could've done that rather quickly, especially if you assume she's supposedly living there & might need to transport other heavy stuff for supplies. So she might already have something like that, or at least Picard might be thinking that way. I didn't find him all that clueless.

 

[JesterFace]

Didn't Picard just walk for few hundred meters at most and then got struck by lightning? Anna / Voval only had to drag him back. Am I missing something?

And who knows, Voval might be superstrong compared to humans.

 

[Nakita Akita]

I just found it strange that Picard woke up and there was s skinny armed woman, human, it seemed, that dragged him 2 km to the shelter.
She could have had some sort of sled to drag him on that she used for other things, but it seems that something like that would be stored by the door.

Even on a sled, he would be quite a heavy thing to drag for 2 km.
Just saying. As a fellow skinny armed woman.......
You men think that we are a LOT stronger than we really are.

It would have been more believable if she had told him that his ribs were broken because she'd dropped him a few times.

 

[DonIago]

You men think that we are a LOT stronger than we really are.

What's that supposed to mean?

And I've had both women and men assume I am a LOT stronger than I really am.

 

[Orac]

1 possibility: She used telekinesis.
But wait! If memory serves wasn't she revealed to be a man at the end, disguised as a woman to try and steal a kiss from Picard?

 

[JirinPanthosa]

In a world where it's not a surprise that Kira can best a Klingon twice her size in a fist fight, this is not surprising.

Remember characters in sci-fi shows have chronic pattern amnesia. They never recognize the sort of things that seem to happen to them every week, so every new situation they treat like it's the first strange thing to ever happen.

And 'A woman transported me somehow' is less of a reach through that lens is 'A man is posing as a woman and seducing me in a scheme to replicate a love story.'

Good point. I mean, if Picard is accepting her story, then she's a woman who's survived like what? 7 years alone on a desolate & inhospitable planet? A woman like that would probably be a pretty tough customer

 

[Jayson1]

Plus their is always the options she was genetically engineered or was half alien or that it took her hours to drag him because it's not like Picard is wearing a watch.

Jason

 

[Paradise City]

She may have access to wheels on her little sled.

Okay, I guess I watched it and forgot all of the other "mysterious " stuff that happens.

She/Voval clearly had the means to transport or anything else. No surprise here.. Except that once again Jean Luc is taken easily off the Enterprise and into dangers hands.. Thats the biggie of the episode if you ask me.. For gods sakes someone put value and a no taketh the captain for this series FFS!
