I did groan when the episode kicked in as a flashback. I thought not an episode set in the past when the Titan was sinking into a gravity field and all hope was lost.
However a lot of the dots connected between the past and present scenes. Even having a moment where Jack Crusher felt rejected by Picard in the past.
The fourth episode in essence wraps up a mini arc and it was a very satisfying conclusion. The only questionable and not too convincing part was the power supply to the Holodeck.
With the the lives of the crew looking doomed. Riker and Picard reconcile. However it is Dr Crusher who spots a ray of hope in the nebula.
Even Captain Shaw gets some character development and his dislike of Picard comes to the fore. Unfortunately it is a retread of the opening story of DS9.
I loved Riker giving Vadic a taste of her own medicine.
Given a poor second season. This episode of Picard was firing on all cylinders.
