"I came close to killing everyone I knew! Everyone I loved! You don't know what it is to be controlled by them. What she can make you do."

[@Cwebbussenterprise]

The most gut-wrenching thing is that alot of people blame The Borg while others blame Picard when they turned him into Locutus.

[@andrewnlarsen]

And amongst the people that Picard could have killed when he was Borg included Jack's mother as well...and imagine if the Borg queen had such an intense amount of interest in Picard (similar to that of a jilted ex-wife) imagine if the Borg queen had run into Beverly Crusher...

[@pugking4518]

@@Cwebbussenterprise Agreed Picard not only blames The Borg but also himself for what he did as Locutus a good example of the damage he did when Picard was a Borg is in STDS9 first episode when Picard meets Sisko for the first time

[@deathstrike]

Yes because one thing has plagued Picard since his assimilation. The deaths of over 11 thousand at Wolf 359,.and all the information about Starfleet Picard possessed at the time. This gets the Borg nearly the ability to conquer Earth. And with only ONE of its lower class cubes. They didn't send any of their top of the line Tactical Cubes or V'Ger style ships. So with all this weight on Picard. Plus his exposure to what Q showed him. The vile monster Picard was with the "Confederation" and his ship the CSS World Razer. The collection of skulls at his Chateau. It's a miracle Picard didn't fracture. So much pain, and then to have a son from the woman who was married to his best friend Jack Crusher. And the pain of never knowing. Being hidden from him by Beverly (To protect him). So much for one man.

[@Artisan1979]

The questions that Jack is asking, those existentialist questions, as to how much of him is him, have probably been what his father had been asking himself since he was rescued from the Borg. Jean Luc should have said that.

"This is my problem, and I can handle it myself." Not exactly Big Boy.

[@racheleaton6022]

This would be such a gut-wrenching thing to learn 😢

[@arnaudlelievre70]

Apart from Jean Luc Picard and Jack Crusher, there is another person who was in direct contact with the Borgs nanoprobes of Locutus, it's Beverly Crusher during the conception of her child, nevertheless the Borgs feared the presence of mind of Beverly which could eviscerate the Borg's revenge plans.

[@arvinbuenaagua5161]

When you're young and you don't know who you are, you try to hold on to what you can pinpoint about yourself as if it is something permanent, just so you can retain a sense of control over your identity. Even if that thing hurts you. And so you become threatened by treatment, or by other people trying to help you, because you think they're doing it because they don't like who you are. But sometimes, they do know better. And they love you. So let them help. Go to rehab. Go to the hospital. Get therapy. It's okay.

[@therealdankclank]

Thanks.

[@jamiefoyers2800]

Hell of an episode this!. So much of this must've influenced the dream I had last night of my own dad. I mind I saw a vision of him...not the feeling of him being there...just a vision but I think watching the episode last night set me off. The sins of the father visited on the child... And it's hidden in the DNA and that wasn't the only connection I was thinking about in this episode either...

[@AizenTeicho]

the only scene I disliked in this entire epic mind-blowing third season of picard. some of the best and most emotional Star Trek ever written. I wish they could have found another way to get Jack into the hands of the board then the route they chose here. I do not see Picard doing this to his son after everything. it was ugly and I understand a means to get him where he needed to go for the plot. but this makes me feel so nasty inside. but this is still the most legendary, I don't even have the words for how great this goodbye for the TNG cast was. I watched it at least once every few weeks.

[@sarahberkner]

"The board" lol. Maybe you're right, but my only problem with that season was the idea that they could run the Enterprise with only a handful of crew members.

[@nicholasclarke171]

If it were me I would be on my knees and thanking Picard for giving me over to people who could help me actually be me. I have autism, and my parents instead of punishing me for it or abandoning me for it, gave me the guidance I needed to qualify as a human being and not a dumb animal. Its not the same, but the principle is identical. And "I can handle it" is just Jack being selfish and self-deluded. Picard taught me a lot, but the best thing he taught me was to never confuse want with the truth.

[@augustwyllt2421]

omg I am so sorry you feel that way. I don't know who made you believe that, but the fact that you have autism doesn't make you any less of a human being. You are not a dumb animal, you don't need other people to tell you what you should be, you are your own person with your own unique mind. What you want is the only thing that is important. That is the truth of the matter.

[@sayres99]

Im sorry but i remember this queen being killed at least three different times.

[@TheCoolProfessor]

Why does Jack have a British accent? Was he raised in Brighton?

[@finnishyank7413]

Beverly said he went to school in London thus his accent.

[@nieshamccoy9419]

Ed Speeler (Jack) is actually British.

[@r.c.auclair2042]

Jean-Luc's been playing a French captain w/a British accent for decades. That's your objection?

[@superscott9780]

The only sad part about this whole season is that the Borg lost

[@JHdamnihatehandles]

Nah, voyagers post 8472 borg episodes ruined them, better to finally put them out of their misery.

[@superscott9780]

@@JHdamnihatehandles I disagree they should have made them terrifying again

[@r.c.auclair2042]

Really? You can think of no other sad parts?

[@superscott9780]

@@r.c.auclair2042 yeah the Federation is still alive lol

[@r.c.auclair2042]

@@superscott9780 , yes, it is. And how many kids just got traumatized for life being assimilated by the Borg and killing people? Remember Sidney's reaction when Jack told over her mind for a minute to save her life and killed someone? Fine. Now multiply that times all the kids who got assimilated against their will and killed Starfleet officers, crews, & ships? You were either too dumb to think of that or too soulless to care. Neither makes you worth my time.
