40. Impossible Girls (Picard 1.06)

78 min • 3 mars 2020

Just when we had gotten used to the idea that Star Trek: Picard was a bit rubbish, it went and threw a good episode at us! Anika and Liz are talking:

redemption and atonement arcs
Anika has a LOT of feelings about Narek, okay?
girl-as-mystery-box storytelling (with a semi-relevant interlude of Steven Moffat fangirling)
Voyager references
Rihannsu lore is creeping into canon and we are DELIGHTED
Elnor's unexpected emotional insight
Hugh and Seven: parallels and contrasts

We also consider Rios's internal decorating, the nature of citizenship in the Federation, and the rights of Romulan refugees. These issues are equally important, shut up.
