Star Trek: Picard | Season 1 Episode 8 ”Broken Pieces”

Picard, S1, E8.  And they don’t call it “Broken Pieces” for nothing! EVERYBODY is broken in the episode. We learn the tortured, mind-breaking origins of the Zhat Vash (and why they are dead set on destroying all synthetic life) and we learn that Soji and Rios have met before – but they were different people then. Soji, literally, and Rios, figuratively. Speaking of Rios, we also *finally* gather all of his holographic versions in one room and find out what exactly has got him so existentially angsty. Jurati wakes from her coma and explains herself. And Raffi - dear, sweet Raffi – sees the matrix and identifies all the parts and puts it all together and knows what is coming next.

 

Also, Soji takes over the ship and steers the crew into the Borg trans-warp network and Seven shows up on the Artifact to kick ass and chew bubblegum… and she’s all out of bubblegum.
