We’ve been teased that a second tragedy, which hasn’t been disclosed, coupled with the Data tragedy caused Picard to leave Star Fleet and return to his family’s vineyard, where he adopted a sweet dog named Number One. I wonder if this is supposed to be a flashback or maybe tapping into Picard’s brain somehow?

Lal was a Soong-type android constructed by Data in 2366 on the USS Enterprise-D. She exceeded Data's capabilities in several ways, notably by being able to complete more than sixty trillion calculations per second, using verbal contractions, and feeling emotions such as fear and love.

He’s played by Evan Evagora and is named Elmor. Despite all evidence to the contrary, Haftel is convinced that a bar is an unacceptable environment for Lal and orders her removed from Ten Forward.

Who is the woman seeking out Picard and why is she so important? Alex Kurtzman noted during Comic-Con: “We are shaking up the character (Picard) while staying true to who he is…” Picard, he added, is an entirely different story than Discovery.

Spock's quarter-Vulcan daughter (hence the round ears)? Express. © 2019 CBS Interactive. [13], In 2020, SyFy Wire noted this episode for its relationship between Picard and Data, and also for being "heartbreaking" when Data makes a robot kid. Star Trek Picard trailer: Why is Jean-Luc Picard in a vineyard? Picard: "If she is who I think she is....", a) he doesn't recognize herb) he hasn't performed any number of simple tests to see if she's an android.

[14], Screen Rant, IGN and Space.com recommended this episode as background for the series Star Trek: Picard. His only comforts are his few surviving friends, his dog, and his wine.

There are so many fan theories, it’s tough to keep up. Although according to how the trailer is worded, we’re certainly led to believe that we’re seeing Data’s body.

Could it be Lore’s body parts possibly? Have thoughts about the trailer? Some time later, a worn-out Haftel leaves the lab and informs Troi, Wesley, and Geordi that they have failed. Is Seven of Nine still with Chakotay? Longtime Star Trek fans will remember that Data once built an android daughter, Lal, in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “The Offspring,” but Lal needed to be shut down.

Only by further investigating her existence does Picard discover that her twin exists. Is she Lal resurrected, mind-wiped and wearing a new face? But if so, why would she be such a huge threat? Data apologizes to Lal that he could not save her, but Lal thanks Data for her creation.

And the rock in the photo above looks A LOT like Who Watches the Watchers (Episode 3×04) where Picard encountered the Proto-Vulcans. However, there are some clues about her identity - namely the bloody scar on her forehead suggesting she may have had a Borg implant removed. "The Offspring" is the 16th episode of the third season of the American science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation, and the 64th episode of the series overall. I'm not sure what you mean? All credit goes to Paramount Pictures. Data copied his memories into B-4’s positronic net. [10], In 2019, The Hollywood Reporter ranked it among the top 25 episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Or perhaps parts that Soong left but never created into a full android. It could also be B-4, who was discovered in 2379, one of three prototype Soong androids.

In The Next Generation, Lore drifted in space for two years before a trade ship rescued him and Lore responded to a homing signal from Soong. (Please no…) And was there a callout to Deep Space Nine in the trailer too?

Some have theorized that this woman is Selma’s daughter. Still others are wondering if she might be Sela’s daughter. “It’s slower, more lyrical, more character-focused.” This is a “darker time” the panel says, but Picard is still standing for what is important.

Guinan allowed Lal to work in Ten-Forward so that she could study socialization and humanoid behavior.

Others think this will be a Khan type of situation. Star Trek: Picard reveals that the character Dahj, played by Isa Briones, is a synthetic lifeform. I imagine he’ll be reprising his role.

Picard: "If she is who I think she is...." Implying that. But could someone could have taken those memories and put them into a new body?
