Catching up with 7of9 was cool but would it be sexist to miss her borg catsuit? I never really understood that. I mean, yeah, I understood it as a device to showcase Ryan's classic Star Trek bodaciousness, but was it ever explained in Voyager why she had to wear that and couldn't wear a uniform like everyone else.
That being said, Picard is still at sublight speed. This ep went to Free Cloud, a Vegas-like planet that is conceptually poached from Bladerunner. There was a cute reference to Tranya, Balok's drink of choice. But this is no ST: Disco...not yet at least. Still watching it in hopes that it'll pull off some major mcguffin and 'engage' me more deeply. Make it so. Dammit Jim, MAKE IT SO!
