Picard And Jurati In His Vineyard In The Past | Star Trek Picard S02e04

[@alannatherson7721]

I liked how the Picard family backstory explained one of the lingering questions I had in Next Generation: why the French guy had an English accent.

[@trence5]

I know right 🤣😂.

[@Maplecook]

But he's still yelling, "Maman! Maman!" as a child, living in France, which would strongly suggest that he has no reason to have an English accent.

[@xephorce]

I love that the ship dosent have the power to keep them warm but sure as hell has enough power to run the cloak. lmao

[@SKy_the_Thunder]

I love that Picard picks up on the number "coincidences" so quickly. Might seem awfully convenient without background knowledge - but similar things happened around him in TNG. The one that specifically comes to mind was when they were trapped in a time loop and suddenly Data started coming across the number 3 because he had received it as a signal from the previous loop to try and break out. Between probably recounting past time travel/timeline related events and just having witnessed a situation similar to when Data was almost corrupted by a Borg Queen, it's no surprise he'd pick up on a pattern like that.

[@Dowlphin]

And yet Guinan at some point said he is not a good observer. BTW, those numerical synchronicities can be noticed in reality. (And the term "in reality" becomes ponderworthy in that context, but you know what I mean. ... 'Our world'.)

[@erinjackson6243]

The Dixon Hill reference was a nice nod to TNG, as well as Picard once again showing how quickly he becomes aware of hints and patterns around him.

[@michaelleung4816]

It's nice that the finally explained why a French captain had an English accent.

[@michelseibriger12]

Yes, and even quite plausibly so!

[@trence5]

in the simplest way possible 🤣

[@mutopis]

TNG writer 1: "Don't you think having a Frenchman captain with a British accent that drinks tea and reads Shakespeare won't cause questions from fans?" TNG writer 2: "Don't worry, I am sure we will answer that question in season 1, is not like we are going to forget about it and answer it decades later." Decades later:

And what about Romulans with Irish or Australian accents? lol

[@lovehawks2814]

Season one proved why we never wanted Picard to have a French accent.

[@rubysultra]

Most people from France....learn british english (a lot of emphasis put on articulation).....and sound way better.....or they can be raised in both cultures and learn accents that way. By the time Picard was a child....the world was globalized so much that accents did not matter if you were being beamed all lover the planet for school.

[@serge747b]

He cannot even pronounce his name carrectly. The 'D' is silent in Picard

[@Nyg5618]

The song just makes me think of Inception every time.

[@ttanza4004]

The sound of the cloaking device activating sounds almost the same as the Bird of Prey in "STAR TREK III: THE SEARCH FOR SPOCK" when it's cloaking device was activated.

[@kriss_b]

It's the same audio file I believe

[@LinkTardis]

Shocking the same technology has the same sound effect

[@mikeb6902]

I think its more closely to the Bird of Prey in Star Trek 6 The Undiscovered Country

[@shanenolan8252]

England was a nice touch to explain his accent. And in fairness i do know some anglo French people and there English is wonderful. Very mild French accent, usually an English parent

[@lecturesfromleeds614]

Patrick Stewart is from Yorkshire, in northern England, but he doesn't have a Yorkshire accent or even a northern English accent

[@IndomitableT]

@@lecturesfromleeds614. Well his professional background is the Old Vic Theatre School, the Old Vic Company, and the Royal Shakespeare Company. That should explain his English pronunciation enough, right?😉

[@danivarius]

Lectures from Leeds if you look up his address to the Oxford Union, you’ll notice Sir Patrick’s Yorkshire accent come out here and there!

3 days before the timeline changes means that they have 72 hours to correct it.

Dawn of the 1st day 72 hours remain

[@brothersgt.grauwolff6716]

I couldn't help but notice 3 days until the change occurs? is that a nod to Ledgend of Zelda Majoras Mask where you only have 3 days to fix everything?

[@Dowlphin]

Likely not. It's a common choice for storytelling. Although we could imagine a connection to the numbers-spotting aspect in this scene and the related theme in one episode of TNG where 3s were manifesting everywhere.

He should reprise Ebenezer Scrooge rather than Picard. He's too feeble to play a feeble ex Starship Captain.
