This one is terrific. Another fun romp getting the cast where they need to be. Parts of this season remind me of Voyager's "Future's End". Stranded crew. Trying to blend in. Overall, a really good episode.

Watcher

With time running out to save the future, Picard takes matters into his own hands and seeks out an old friend for help. Rios ends up on the wrong side of the law. Jurati makes a deal with the Borg Queen.

Jack's Review
I could have given this one a full five pips for the interplay between Raffi and Seven as well as the greatest cameo in Trek history - but the episode does lean towards being preachy. Old Trek would tackle modern issues by using allegory with alien cultures. Modern Trek just throws it right out there. Don't show us how bad things are. We know. Show us how to solve them. Last gripe for me is...why didn't Guinan recognize Picard? They met in 1893. Same timeline they are in now. They jumped back in time before the timeline skewed off....She should know who he is.
