Aka stonedposting p2!

I'll give a refresher by describing the cold open:

Picard is resting in his quarters when he is abducted a device. It gets detected Data, so Worf orders a security team to the Captain's quarters. It cuts to Picard who attempts communicate with the ship, but gets no response. We cut back to Worf, who sees nothing wrong!

What do you like about it? What happens next? What's your favorite scene? What insights does it give to the star trek universe?

"conversations with letters of the alphabet" hahahah fair. But also like, in their defence, you would assume that someone being placed in command of the flagship of the Federation would have been thoroughly vetted before hand wouldn't you?

They also put children on the ship, so maybe the admiralty isn't so smart.
