Now Do You Understand?

[@SmugCanadian]

Imagine how massive they must have been compared to the scale of the ship when they were standing on it.

[@Diablo_Himself]

Very true. That was some bad scaling.

[@kavinskysmith4094]

funny thing is that's the 4 foot model their green screened against, meaning its not even canonically really the biggest model of the ship, and they would have looked even smaller if they had done this a season or two earlier

[@GeoStreber]

That shot of them standing on the top of the secondary hull was pretty damn cool. It's a shame we never really got to see an E.V.A. scene like this on the Enterprise D. Only with that deflector dish scene in "First Contact"

[@ModestNeophyte]

back in the day i used to do star trek text rp on some IRC server.. my character enjoyed driving a modified jeep that could drive on the outside of a ship (on the holodeck) it used forcefield generators in the tires to make grippy forcefields that would keep the jeep "glued" to the hull. i was doing donuts in said jeep on a sovereign class deflector dish :p i'll never forget that lol

[@Diablo_Himself]

That was a great shot, on the underside of the Sovereign. Seeing the ship UPSIDE DOWN was the highlight for me.

[@shawnchong5196]

I always found those handshaking gestures to teleport just a tad bit silly, but it's added human "flair" which I highly doubt the Q would do =)

[@AndyCutright]

Very much 'Bewitched'

[@Rensune]

She was raised as a Human

[@ModestNeophyte]

lol well being Q is apparently half "flair"

[@AlyssMa7rin]

It could very well be a matter of focus, and she was raised human.

[@ripple-effect-mlp]

I also think that we, as the audience, needed an indication that it was Amanda doing something and not Q, and this game of hide and seek made that apparent. If the "container" turned into Q without her hand gestures, we would have wondered how she actually found him. So I think these obvious hand gestures were really for when Q and Amanda were together. Notice that when she actively used her powers without his presence, her gestures were often more subtle.

[@WhiteScarsEmo]

Thinking about it, if he really wanted her to fail, he could've... not helped her, spurred her a bit with his little game.

[@sirannikus]

Olivia D'Abo! Sigh... 😍

[@TheCowpoke406]

These are some good beans

[@questtech2698]

bean dinner can be messy you know

[@KingOfMadCows]

We see a more advanced version of this in the Voyager episode Death Wish where Quinn tries to hide from Q. And we see that they're capable of way more than this. They're able to shrink down to the size of subatomic particles and they can go back to before the Big Bang.

[@farrictheranger]

Thankfully Kevin Spacey didn't play Q.

[@AndyCutright]

Q is lecherous.

[@Howdy76]

Q VS DOWD,,, That old boy could fart sideways and wipe out 50 billion HUUSHNACKS,...What do you think ?????

[@richtea615]

The Dowd are beta pacifists; the Q are giga-chads who do whatever they like.

[@travissmith2848]

Still not all of them everywhere with just a thought....... Q has made many seemingly physical beings, but we never see any of them sufficiently developed of mind to question him. Have we seen Q create a habitable zone on a dead planet? Spawn a full starship out of nothing? There are many quasi-deity like beings within Star Trek. We never really get to see the full depth and breadth of their abilities, but I have the impression that the Q are one of the lesser of their number being more style than substance and still in the arrogant phase of their near omnipotence. Possibly one of the "younger" of their kind.

[@shawnchong5196]

That's why I want non-kurtzman ST to continue, because it's such an open world for GREAT WRITERS NOT KURTZMAN. I want to know more about the DOWD and Q, the crystalline entity, the evolution of the borg in a GOOD ARC, not some POS PIC version. More on the ferengi, more on the trill, and elements in DS9!

[@terminat1]

Q is superior.

[@orwellboy1958]

Q doing a great impression of Biden.

[@teegees]

My thoughts exactly lol

[@jla3bc]

Screw you. Keep your MAGAt politics out of Star Trek.
