What I didn't understand was in Generations the only thing Picard took from the wreckage of Enterprise D was his photo album yet all these bits and bobs turn up from his ready room.

Don’t think about it……too…..hard.

Don’t assume there wasn’t a proper salvage detail despatched to the wreckage later either. The saucer section survived largely intact. The rescue ships that responded to the mayday will have waited long enough to collect survivors and essentials but they wouldn’t have had the time or the space to collect absolutely everything that could be collected.

Also, further Easter egg - Rachel Garrett was captain of the ill-fated Enterprise NCC-1701-C, as seen in S3 E15, ‘Yesterday’s Enterprise’.

I’ve just finished watching it again.

Raffi is looking for something stolen from the “Daystrom Institute” which is where the primitive Data model B4 was held.

The trailer for Picard S3, had Lore in it. Has Lore rescued his brother?

Lore himself was dismantled at the end of “Descent” part 2 (S7 E1) and was possibly transferred to the Daestrom Institute at some later date.

It’s geek heaven.

As long as the story is good………I’ve got a feeling they’re doing this for the fans. I think this is going to be the Star Trek version of “Skyfall”.

In the end credits sequence Voyager was highlighted, Seven also referenced Janeway. Brent Spiner is definitely back as an android.

The Borg will definitely be involved ( based on last season as federation allies)

You’d think they’d do the decent thing and drop 3 episodes at a time!

I understand that there must have been a salvage operation but things don't make sense.

Take the relics Dr Crusher has, hypo spray etc, they would have been in sickbay which was located at the lower of the saucer section of Enterprise D which took most of the impact of the crash landing. Surely she didn't give the salvage team a list of nic naks to pick up from a destroyed sickbay for keep sakes.

I love Star Trek to bits but I also like things that make sense.

Yes, but what you’re doing there is setting it up to fail. You’re speculating that sick bay was too badly damaged - that wasn’t seen on screen so we can’t know that. All we can know is that the saucer was properly salvaged because artefacts have since appeared in the possession of their owners, and in the case of items from sick bay clearly it did survive.

Its obvious that sickbay would have been to badly damaged, we see Dr Crusher evacuating sickbay as they were falling and if the upper decks were totalled then the decks that took most of the impact would have been.

Lets get back to the topic shall we.

Whether it’s good storytelling to have items from Enterprise-D show up in Picard *is* the topic, surely? Or part of it at least.

We are just pointing out possible holes in the storyline, as Chris said surely this is on topic.

Anyhoo, I’m really looking forward to what’s to come. According to the trailers we’re getting to meet Worf, Geordi and also the Holodeck Moriarty who became self aware and almost took over the Enterprise-D in the second season episode ‘Elementary Dear Data’ and reappeared in season six in ‘Ship in a bottle’. A reference in Picard to ‘Sherlock Holmes Program 3A’ might be the giveaway for when he’s going to show up.

Beverley Crusher cut off all contact with Picard and the others 20 years ago, and suddenly a son who looks about 20 years old shows up - so I’d say as fan theories go it’s a decent one
