The crew is coming together in the third episode of Star Trek: Picard, an episode that once again deepens the mystery at the centre of this series, but at least finally starts to gain a bit of momentum.
The second episode ended with seeing Picard in need of a ship, turned away by the federation when he came forward with his plan to find scientist Bruce Maddox, the man responsible for creating the daughters of Data. He seeks assistance from an old friend, Raffi (Michelle Hurd), an aide he left behind years ago after resigning from Starfleet in the wake of the Federation rejecting his Romulan rescue efforts, itself a result of the synthetic attack on Mars.
