When the Age Difference was on the other Foot.

Actor David Birkin was 15 in 1992, which if that tracks, then young Picard was 15 in Rascals which is the year 2369 in story continuity, when Picard was actually 64 so he became 49 years younger from the accident. Although, maybe Bev said something about them all being Prepubescent? I forget. Then again with the genetic deformities which killed Shinzon, maybe Picard was a bit beefy at a younger age because of all the gene therapy compensating for his syndrome or whatever Nemesis claptrap he’d had fracking up his comfort.

Getting to the point.

Bev was 19 years younger than Picard. So she was 45 in 2369 while rascals was being produced which would only make her 30 years older than young Picard if David’s age can be taken as wrote?

Almost there.

…How far would young Picard have gotten, after dinner and a movie, a long walk on the beach front and staring into the starry skies discussing their dreams and ambitions, y’know after some intense attempts at courtship if he’d tried to get his leg over with Bev?

(Of courser the age difference was never an issue since it's taken for granted than Jack and Picard were the same age. Isn't it?)
 
I think he'd have to be an adult again first. If Beverly was bothered by Odan being in a woman's body, then I think she'd also be bothered by Picard being in a child's.
 
I dunno, she seemed awfully fond of Wesley and he was a lot younger than her. Wonder how far he got with her...




( :angel:)
 
Was Wes on board during Conumdrum?

Bev draws the line at woman? But a day earlier she'd been groping a monkey. And later on, she was dong it with a ghost... Which means she approves of necrophilia and bestiality. Red's moral compass is way off kilter.
 
Hey! You can't throw around words like "conundrum"! This is a PG-13 board! The correct term is "hoo-ha."
 
Starting with the OP, and all the replies, this is the funniest thread in a long while.

Thanks.

I always found the scenes between adult Miles and child Keiko a bit… well, thought-provoking to say the least.

What if they'd done it? Technically, there would be nothing wrong with it as Keiko was an adult.

All very creepy/confusing/strange.

I guess the thing that confuses me most is: were we supposed to think about Miles contemplating having sex with a woman who looks like a child? Or do I just have a dirty mind?

While I'm posting in this thread, I should mention that I was quite a fan of Megan Parlen (young Laren) back in the day. She went on to play MaryBeth in the teen sitcom Hang Time. Just a few years after her appearance as a kid in TNG, she was actually looking very hot. And she was always a really great actress. I thought she was easily the most convincing 'adult-kid' in Rascals.

Last I heard, she was a journalist.

Oh, and another thing… I always wondered why young Picard had different eye colour to old Picard!?
 
Keiko was rubbing his shoulders when miles spazzed out. maybe they have some sort of quid proquo? My old girlfriend used to say that I could either have sex or a backrub in exchange for a backrub. that deal quickly came off the table when she began noticing that I'd stopped ever chosing the sex.

Do you remember what Elizabeth Perkins did at the end of Big? At that point, half way through the show, they couldn't reverse the process, but they could probably repeat it. Could Miles have turned himself into a kid too and THEN made out with his wife without feeling guilty?
