All of this was a Q illusion to manipulate Picard into becoming a more aggressive military commander
Might’ve overcompensated.
Maybe RealHeartPicard was able to have a full life that PicardPrime (with kung fu grip) couldn’t have. He could have gotten married, had a bunch of cute kids, saved his brother and nephew and celebrated an old fashioned Joyeux Noël, with everyone dressed in natural fabrics and big hair ribbons. No Blazin’ Bev, but still, it could have been the best outcome.
Lt. JG Picard once they’re switched back: “Are you shitting me?!”
I should think he’d be more relieved as he’s basically Broccoli.
Of course, now I wanna see an alternate timeline where he’s the confident captain.
I kinda need confident broccoli memes in my life now. How’s one go about doing the memes like you tech savvy youngsters?
You’re right. He probably blew up the ship within about 20 minutes.
I didn’t think that was a switch as much as an alternate reality Q created solely for Picard to make a point. Like the warp bubble that Crusher got trapped in once.
