Star Trek: Picard

I was just thinking of the whole changelings and borg connection and then i remember the game st armada i dunno which but it had in one of the borg story arcs where the borg wanted locutus back so u had to find a dominion clonining facility and since they probs had his dna on file cloned him that way, i know its not really similar but the link of dom and borg and picard involvement doesnt make me think of that game when i watch picard s3, just a little.

Worf was confirmed as being captain of the E, and there was an "incident"

The Fate Of The Enterprise-E Has Been Revealed At Last

We already knew Kirk had to destroy his Enterprise, but now another hero blew another one to pieces? Here's what we know!

I suspect that's the incident but the Enterprise E was not destroyed.

Rather, I suspect that it is still fullly functional, but it has developed "other" issues since that incident. The reason for this theory, is after reaching the bridge of the D, Worf continues to lament the downgrade of the Galaxy class armaments, rattling off about the increased Phaser Banks, shields, torpedo (on the E)- before they were cut off by Troi and agreeing it was excellent seeing the D again.

A person who knows that the E was destroyed (completely unable to be used entirely) would not speak of wishing they were on the E in a wishful manner, but would be more sombre about it.

That's why I'm theorising that something else happened to the E (Another Computer that became sentient perhaps and developed a pacifist personality and so refused to fire weapons, etc). And that we will see the big E again at another time. :)
 
Ever since the shot of the big d in the opening scene of season 1 it's the one member of the tng crew I've really missed. Never got a proper go in the movies. The whole cast (shut up Wesley) together and not Ent, it would have been missing something. Got a bit misty eyed.

Not upset about it being the Borg, the proper Borg this time. Season one a cube was a setting for a lot of it but they weren't really important to the limited plot (a shame as the whole Romulan/AI/Borg origins thing could have been interesting).
Season 2 they were again most definitely not the Borg proper (aside the initial encounter with the Queen) and again makes me think season 2 was written and put into production way before it was ready because of covid.
We're finally getting big bad scary Borg after Voyager kind of neutered them a bit. So in my head 1996 was the last time we really saw them.

Chatting with a friend and think I’ve cracked the big bad…
after jack due to something locutus related he’s inherited. Able to network into starfleet with admiral dna, all ships in one place. Bit bsg like but ok.
Aliens, species 8472. Bio tech so able to mess with the changlings and have something in common. Starfleet engineered weapons to wipe them out too. Voyager gave them to the Borg of all races… fair enough they wanted to kill all life in normal space but whatever.

Might be way off and doesn’t explain the red door or jacks telepathy though…

Just thinking out loud again, have we seen these changlings use a shuttle yet?
Attack Beverly, shuttles. Ro laren, shuttle, boarding titan, shuttle.

Gah half right on Jack and was onto something with the Changlings refusing to use Transporters!
 
I thought the season ended last week - was surprised to see another episode and another next week. I've seen some posts so attempting to answer / expand.

Admiral Shelby - Riker wasn't a fan of her in 'The Best Of Both Worlds' and she was the tactical specialist brought onto the Enterprise D to counteract the Borg threat

Transwarp Hubs - Seven mentioned in a Voyager episode that the Borg had I think five of these...so maybe only four left?

Fleet Network - a Borg idea and the ships when linked / taken over seem to arrange themselves in the shape of the Borg language / sign I think

Transporters - clever use of the JLP DNA being added by the Changelings to each ship and then to each officer through stealth...like an opposite of what the bio filters are supposed to do

End Titles - the on screen displays and Okudagrams gave away future episodes parts as each display is used in an episode (Data's neural battle / Jacks' transmitter signal / Beverley's song?)

Enterprise D - the brighter nacelles when it goes to warp :D...and yes it can be operated by only a few people (sure it was mentioned in an episode) - but Beverley asks the computer in TNG episode 'Remember Me' when everyone disappears that with a ship this size why would I be the only crew member? :D Picard: it cannot be salvaged - well give Geordi 20 years and he'll get it backup and running...

Wasn't Elnor on the Excelsior?

Less said about that, the better. I bet they thought that this character was going to be great, sweeping in with his sword and saving Picard from some angry mob, but in reality it was just jarring and not fitting in with Star Trek at all. Possible the 2nd or third worst new character they introduced.

I’ve heard that episode 10 will be feature length and focus solely on Raffy - notably absent from the return to the D (which will quickly explode after the intro, ending those character’s screen time) - some new characters will be introduced as her sidekicks and this will set up the loosely-linked sequel series called ‘Raffy’.

In all seriousness, I do feel bad for the actress - she is just sort of tagalong and in the background now, it would honestly be kinder to have just killed the character off in a heroic way than go through this display of nobody (including the writers) caring about her :o

I think Worf and Elnor could have worked as a duo too. I’m still not sure what happened to his character! Can’t recall if we got a ‘he’s alive!’ scene. That alone speaks volumes of season 2.

Elnor got a 'he's alive scene' during season 2 (I'm not putting this in spoiler, it's old now lol)... it featured raffy contacting the ship he was on because their shield wasn't in sync with the others when the agnes borg was taking control to save everyone from the new transwarp corridor....

yes both have been completely forgotton this season... unless...
the big finale of season 3 has a large armada of old borgs coming through the new transwarp corridor and agnes borg being superior and killing them off as they leave the corridor.

She's sort of been ok in this series, but as you say probably because she's mostly been in the background.
