First panel beautifully encapsulates Troi’s character

That third panel came out of nowhere for me lmao
Even though I had it saved and saw it before, I still ended up crying with laughter before posting it.
Just Locutus things…
I honestly feel like that was a really cheap way of putting tension between Sisco and Picard.
DS9 is a very different show than TNG. Picard and Sisco have an extremely different philosophy towards command. There are a ton of real ways that their values could come into conflict.
Instead DS9 shows Sisco showing open bitterness and contempt because of “Picard Killed his wife”. Only he didn’t and was very obviously a glorified meat puppet during the entire ordeal.
But that’s the thing, despite their differences they respect each other. If it weren’t for Picard being the instrument of Jennifer’s death and for Sisco being emotionally stuck in that experience they would grudgingly get along (as they did at the end of the episode).
The conflict is mostly internalized to Sisco, about him being unable to process and move on, not an actual irredeemable point of contention with Picard.
He knows Picard wasn’t Locutus otherwise he wouldn’t treat him as a Starfleet officer — but he still extends him the courtesy, which to me is very interesting because it signifies that on some level he’s aware that his hostility towards Picard is not logical.
Picard seems to be caught completely unaware of it too, which suggests that he’s used to everybody accepting he wasn’t Locutus. To run into someone who asserts that he was and not only that but openly blame him for a victim of Wolf 359 is not only completely unexpected but also a deeply hurtful cheap shot, judging by the way his face fell.
That third panel made me go “wait when did picard kill sisko’s wife!?” Oh right Locutus of borg
But we have counselor-client privilege, right?
Yes, except for murder.
I feel like after one point, Picard ended up liking it. He gets to be the representative of Humanity to an all powerful race.
If he would be pissed off with anyone, it would be Janeway. I suspect the Admiral kept that classified.
I know Janeway defeated The Borg, though I don’t remember how, but that was way after Locutus. Why would he hate Janeway?
Janeway was who Q turned to in order to fix Q Continuum political problems.
Fucking hell dude.
