The line Shaw delivers "The book she is going to write will be great and rules she breaks,, maybe they were broken to begin with." that is pure respect.

[@dhinton1]

so much irony in that .......... especially considering how much of "the old book" Seven knew from her days as an assimilated member of Unimatrix Zero One

[@dhinton1]

and THAT line is why Seven of Nine is a worthy member of the most exclusive club in Starfleet: the Enterprise Captains Club.

TNG, DS9 and Voyager all coming together in a relatively coherent way made this season absolutely fantastic.

[@ART1984able]

It's only fitting, Voyager was part of that era as well as Deep Space 9 so this being a sort of send off to all three shows from the Next Gen era was cool even though Janeway should've been the one to give her the promotion in my view but it was still awesome to know Tuvok was still alive.

[@AltaniNerdAuRa]

@@ART1984able I think why it was Tuvok was Seven had more a connection as a friend and Tuvok while Janeway was in many ways her mentor. Which, knowing how Tuvok is, he'd have likely more impact on Seven delivering the line and Janeway knew it, which is why she sent him in her place. She'd want to be the one to present Seven her first command anyways.

Honestly, Shaw being pissed at Seven throughout the first half of this season's episodes makes a lot more sense when you consider that he actually recommended her for a promotion right before she pulled a mini mutiny on him.

Feels to me like he recorded this before their final return to Frontier Day, in case he didn't make it. He'd already butted heads with her, but seen her loyalty and leadership in action as well

[@ThatElfNerd]

[@margotundercliffe1399]

He was doing reports when Picard came on board so it was right before the mutiny. He pushed her even when Vadic had them hostage because he believed in her. She was actually his perfect first officer because she pushed him. He was angry at her as she just threw away his recommendation.

[@DevilPogoStick]

Yeah, the implication with the message was that despite his own issues, he always respected Seven. He's basically a jerk with a heart deep down that knew she had what it takes after working together before the season even started and Seven never quite realized this until Tuvok showed the message. It made a lot more sense now just why he kept her as his first officer and how they can actually work together when on the same page despite their arguments. If he truly resented her, Shaw would've longed kicked Seven out and get her transferred. Again, dude wasn't exactly a chipper fellow but he cared a lot more than he'd let anyone realized.

I was there right up to the throwing away and rewriting of the book. That reminded me this is a secret hideout production. They hate writing characters who stand by rules and regs…. But this is where they ultimately fail to understand what they writing for. They are writing for members of an institution that role every emergency service and scientific department into one machine called Starfleet. It need rules… and as Kirk once said, ‘We don’t send robots into space because rules are meant for perfect situations. But you won’t find perfect situations to apply the rules to. That’s why we go with our machines and computers. To make the situation fit the rules, or the other way around.’ Secret Hideouts infatuation with throwing the book away and rewriting it is the antithesis of respecting the last generation. Because the last generation was given a book too… and they added to and adapted it. They didn’t toss it away like garbage,

[@boba6890]

I've always loved Seven; Jeri Ryan is a brilliant actor. Seven's overwhelmed with by emotion, yet remains so understated and intense it's remarkable. Shaw of all people makes sure Seven finds her true place in Starfleet as a Captain. It starts out sounding like an insult yet is the highest of praise: "She's reckless, she's unrelenting, doesn't give a damn about protocol or procedure, however She is brave, and loyal, and the book that she writes it going to be great, and the rules that she breaks, maybe they were broken to begin with". Watching the recording Seven finally understands Shaw. She believed he selected her as First Officer to torture her as an ex-Borg; the truth is very different. People are complicated. Shaw has PTSD because of the Borg, yet he holds Seven in the highest regard. Seven's journey is remarkable; that entire journey has led her to this point. The last thing Seven would have ever imagined 20 years ago is leading a Starship in a massive battle and using what the Borg did to her against her will to combat and help defeat the Borg as all that remains of Starfleet. Seven thinks she's going to be told she's being thrown out of Starfleet for what she's done, but that the real reason she'll be thrown our is because of Who she is, and instead she's made the Captain of the Enterprise G based on her character, her heroics, and the recommendations of Shaw. That's some incredible storytelling. There is greatness here; I'm deeply grateful for the remarkable writing and acting. Todd Stashwick is a great actor and is amazing as Shaw; don't take my word for it, Jeri Ryan has repeatedly said it in interviews and the two have already become very close friends.

[@rolandmiller5456]

Bob A. Hearing Shaw's words from the grave so to speak is like finally getting approval from a parent who doesn't understand you. You long for those moments.... And you wonder if they ever will happen and when they do happen..... It is profoundly moving. 7 had a weight on her shoulders that very few people can possibly as she worked her way into Starfleet. Remember she was rejected by Starfleet at first. To finally win the the approval of a man who hated what she had been was the last hurdle she needed to clear.

[@wongscp1701]

Shaw, even with borg PTSD, shows how humanity in that Era has overcome the things Roddenberry said were a thing of the past. That shows the quality of the writing, they didn't have to EXPLAIN it, just show it and let the audience and characters react and relate. This is why STD is such garbage. Look at me! I'm non-binary, look at me, we are gay, gay kiss. Look at me, emotions and crying because I can't solve the problem! Waaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!

Seven's entire arc this seasons is textbook how you replace the old and bring up the new. If they had just dropped her in at Captain of the Enterprise on the first episode fans would of likely raged like crazy at it. But by giving her Shaw, a character she had to earn the respect of, and a character the fans could really love, they allowed her to grow into this position naturally through action and bravery. We loved the character already from Voyager, but that character wasn't ready to be a captain, and even through-out Picard she wasn't. Shaw's influence molded her for the captain's chair just like Janeway's influence restored her humanity. Now if they continue this with Star Trek Legacy, they can further grow her character, and her interactions alongside Jack will be interesting considering both of their Borg histories.

Shows take too long to debut. They need to step up and get the Capt. Seven era off the ground in 2024. She will be great, I have no doubt. I also believe Speleers will be great on the crew of Titan.

[@CoolsBreeze]

Never seen Seven cry as a human other than when Icheb risked his life to save her. What a great moment. Honestly this whole show has been more about making Seven an even more important character than Picard.

[@dhinton1]

Seven's evolution was a subplot for the TNG reunion tour. It was VERY intentional.

[@BrainNeedsFood]

The musical score in this season was amazing. When Tuvok informs Seven of her promotion to Captain, we hear just a little bit of the Voyager theme.

[@kaeaja]

I love seeing Seven smile, her smile has always been great and seeing her cry tears of amazement and joy in this scene made me wanna cry, just so much emotion from a character who has struggled with feelings in the past

[@darrellhall6622]

Seven of Nine has the spirit of the greatest federation captain, one James T. Kirk.

[@davidrussell7105]

They have to do a series which th 7 of 9 as captain. An unconventional captain and crew, breaking the rules, rewriting the rules, and doing great things, would bring a breathe of fresh air into the franchise.

[@JnEricsonx]

As soon as Jeri figures out what her going out phrase is!

[@stephenjackson6111]

Nice how the scene opening parallels the ending of Star Trek Undiscovered Country with Kirk's Enterprise and Sulu's Excelsior sailing off together.

[@velvetknapp]

Shaw " that's something a changeling would say".😂

[@tmoore4075]

When he refers to her as Seven of Nine, I got chills.

[@burningflamesofdivinedragon]

This is so cool Seven of Nine really deserved this promotion.

[@DimitriYar]

And best thing. On whitch ship is 7 mow Captain ? The freaking Enterprise !

[@wadearendsee4430]

Its pretty awesome to see Seven as a character grow so much, from struggling to be an individual to being captain of the Enterprise, damn. Also that shot of the D and the Titan/G (both old and the young), pretty great.

[@sonicxrich0789]

Annika Hansen / Seven of Nine becomes Captain of the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-G) Admiral Kathryn Janeway will be so proud. 🌟

[@christianmccann9400]

Would of liked to see admiral Janeway commanding the defense of the station ..

[@thomashong2938]

Not just captain. Captain of the Enterprise-G, the new flagship of Starfleet.

[@QuilavaMan]

I just realized something. There have been a total of 9 Enterprises featured in media now (the main timeliness, not the Kelvin timeline). And 7 of those are lettered ships, one of which is the Enterprise-G, which Annika is now the captain of. Get it? The SEVENTH lettered Enterprise of NINE total? Quite the interesting coincidence, isn't it?

[@kaidenshepard8446]

Indeed you can tell Tuvok is proud of Seven

[@Ladco77]

Tim Russ did such a fantastic job. He managed to convey so much pride and emotion while showing virtually none. Bravo.

[@jamesbell3780]

Omg Captain Katharine Janeway would be so proud wish she was in this scene as well congratulations seven of Nine 😢

[@palmshoot]

*Admiral

[@TheLSK]

In a way, she was. Tuvok is not mentioned or shown as having a ship...I suspect he was Admiral Janeway's adjutant. So you could say she was directly involved in Seven's promotion.

[@werewolfjones3178]

"She is Brave."

[@ChristopherG1990]

I was seriously, SERIOUSLY, expecting Janeway to walk in and place the pip on her 😥😭 and her saying something like Ensign Kim would be proud.

[@SuperAaron360]

LOL still an ensign 😂

[@Lightray110]

That fact that, as it turns out, Shaw respected her from the beginning made me tear up.

[@Mellowcanuck33]

I suspected that's why he was so angry at her. Then he realized. She's breaking his broken rules.

[@umairbutt1355]

@@Mellowcanuck33 He was angry at her because of his borg induced PTSD lol.

[@drchowder4605]

The cinematography of seven, watching through Shaw's hologram, directly to the true Tuvok is extremely underrated.

[@sarahberkner]

And yet people like to complain about the lighting being low, which I get but I still think the cinematography is so much improved over TNG. Also the uniforms look less like pajamas, but I think that's been the case for a while.

[@LaurenGlenn]

Her character is seriously one of the best aspects of Picard recently in addition to having the TNG staff there.... But that boldly going into a battle is what Star Trek needs far more of... That sense of danger and adventure

[@kbrich-nn8od]

Just love 7 of 9 my favorite Star Trek character of all tyme and she deserves her own series like Janeway'/!!!

[@zarakikenpachi-ds1ud]

id love a new series with 7of 9 as Captain of the Enterprise and a little more of Shaw. Bringing Q back was interesting...

[@Goldtaker23]

Im pretty sure its going to happen you dont set something that big up and just leave it there especially with the extra Q element at the end

[@jeremydale4548]

​@@Goldtaker23 I have a sneaking suspicion that this is what Q was doing for the last 20 years after he told Picard the trial never ends. Tormenting his son.

This scene.... one of the best Star Fleet Captain moments.

[@mikehance6086]

The eyebrow raise from tuvok he’s still got it the second best vulcan in star trek

[@DimitriYar]

Mine is T`Pol (Jolene Blalock) Maybie you know her from Star Trek Enterprise.

[@jonmyers8046]

Now that's just good Trek writing 👍

[@naikhemanta]

This is one of the best scene.

[@newyorknewsjunkie8883]

There’s a small bit of character growth for Tuvok here. When he was an ensign on the Excelsior, he publicly protested Sulu’s flagrant disregard of regulations. Now, he’s giving a promotion to someone for doing exactly that. He has a greater appreciation for the values of loyalty and trust.

[@jtkirkfan2002]

That smallest hint of a grin when Tukok calls her, "Captain" - that is why he was my second favorite Vulcan and my favorite Voyager character. Leonard Nimoy wrote the book on how to play a Vulcan, but Tim Russ wrote the second volume.

[@patgarci]

Ngl kinda wished Janeway was there too beside Tuvok but I'm happy with this too

[@trenillo]

Best cliffhanger ever. ❤️

[@acebrandon3522]

Now , who did not get somewhat teary eyed at that clip???? I became a happy

[@daviddriver2692]

I have watched this scene over& over...STILL brings tears to my eyes 😢, my greatest hope is these characters/stars..live long & prosper 🖖

[@MisterJax]

Great moment. My head canon tells me Tuvok is Admiral Janeway’s adjutant and was delivering her orders personally.

[@Albert23456]

Seven will make a fine Captain...thanks for sharing this...I hope we get the Legacy series

[@dstavrianos]

Hopefully Kate Mulgrew saw this. From what we’ve heard she wasn’t exactly too professional towards Jeri Ryan back in the day. Knowing this was likely done with a tennis ball and someone reading the line off screen, Jeri Ryan did a remarkable job conveying all her emotions from embarrassment, sadness, respect and appreciation all without saying a word. This is “just a sci-fi show” and as such, will likely never get the respect of Hollywood award shows - even though Hollywood is littered with every stupid superhero movie imaginable right now. Jeri Ryan is the real deal. She is a legitimate actor. Well done.

[@rolandmiller5456]

Actually Todd read that play back to her so she saw him when she read it. I believe I also saw an interview that Jeri actually did cry during that scene. Editing is a wonderful thing.

[@JamesF0790]

Yeah. That said they buried the hatchet apparently. Kate Mulgrew agreed that she wasn't being remotely fair and while they may or may not be friends they're on good terms now.

[@shinigami146]

Good for Seven! Jeri Ryan took the role and ran with it. There is quite a character arc here that would not have been possible without Jeri's work to make the character more 3D. She could have just been the hot chick, but she made it more. Her being cast in this series is proof of that.

[@boxonothing4087]

What makes this scene so powerful is while others supported and encouraged her, Shaw is the one who gives her what she always wanted. Recognition. While others have looked at her with pride, respect and admiration, he saw her. This is a pure "I see you" moment

[@davidgast3175]

UGHHH this scene beginning with Enterprise - D and Titan hits so much harder knowing Titan becomes Enterprise - G and seeing them side by side like that is UGHHHHHHH TERRY MATALAS so good

[@jricks3909]

If they won't bring him back from the dead, give him a prequel series. Even a limited one. Todd Stashwick earned it.

[@oldtwinsna8347]

Just bring him back as a golem. Easily solved.

[@grizzfan08]

I so called it with the transporter being used to get rid of the Borg in the under-25 yr olds, and also weeding out the Changelings as well. And I love the face-to-face reunion of Seven and Tuvok, it's come full-circle.

[@Jay-N-Night]

No matter how many times I watch this scene, always gets me in the feels.

[@dilatedbeholder3865]

Whatever the reasons, people should have made it work so that Janeway was the cameo in this scene

[@craigmacdonald7764]

Just seeing Tim russ back as tuvok was fucking brilliant

[@bernbsy]

Shaw's death added gravitas to the series no doubt but it's too bad he's dead. He had an interesting personality. Had his weaknesses. Was an ass at times and arrogant but honest and direct. Had a good sense of humour, was resourceful, courageous, and took no crap from anyone. Why did it take them so long to give us a good new ST character.

[@jimherbert007]

Fanboying over Geordie was brilliant as well

[@LGranthamsHeir]

0:33 - 0:46 I assume all DS9, VOY (incl Admiral Janeway), and LD characters were all captured by the Changelings and survived the Borg massacre. Presumably this includes Ro Laren as well. Terry Matalas confirmed in his AMA yesterday that she's still alive and was one of the officers rescued from the "Intrepid" along with Tuvok 😊
