Star Trek Picard S3 E8 Surrender - 5 Biggest Nitpicks

Qapla' All... Star Trek Picard Season 3 Episode 8 "Surrender" was released on Paramount Plus. If you don't have a hour+ to watch my review, this is a much shorter more polished video of my 5 biggest nitpicks with the episode. Some are more than nitpicks, it's just a nice way of saying "crippling plot holes." Nitpicks sounds better though so that is what we'll go with. From questionable changeling replacements and kidnapping choices to even more questionable weapons choices. to a shoot first ask questions later attitude, there are nitpicks for everyone!

Memory Alpha Teaser:
Making herself comfortable on the USS Titan-A's bridge, Vadic orders her followers to "take [the crew's] eyes" and lock down the ship's controls, just as Geordi La Forge unplugs Daystrom Android M-5-10 (controlled by Lore) from the ship's computer. As the lights go out, his daughter Alandra asks if he had in fact disconnected the android, and Geordi assures her he did; he knows Vadic has the bridge. Vadic then decides to "take their ears" by disabling internal communications, her crew ambushing that of the Titan in the corridors. Vadic herself takes "the very road ahead of them" by sealing the doors. As she forces her prisoners – Captain Shaw, Seven of Nine, and the remaining bridge crew – to listen to the screams of their comrades, Vadic rises, eyes closed and hands waving like a conductor at the sound, before she closes the channel, walking down the line of the crew. Most stare at her with either fear or contempt; a tear falls down Esmar's face at the fate of their shipmates.

Picard and Beverly Crusher attempt to access the security systems from sickbay, but cannot break the security lockout. As he watches his parents work, Jack Crusher backs up against a wall, his eyes beginning to glow red, as Sidney La Forge wonders what he is doing; he is able to hear that thought in her head. His focus goes outside sickbay, and he is able to hear the thoughts of the Titan's crew. He is able to get inside the mind of a security officer, who wonders where the rest of his squad is. Seeing through his eyes, he advances down the corridor, finding several shipmates either dead or trying to hide, before the man is shot dead by one of Vadic's crew. Jack returns to himself, gasping, before he tells the others that it was no use: The Titan was Vadic's now, and her crew controlled most of the ship.

As if to emphasize this, Vadic addresses the entire ship, telling the crew that she has left them without sight, sound, or freedom of movement; if she so wished, she could leave them without air to breathe or gravity to stand, or make the environmental controls boil them or freeze them – or, she adds, she could be on her way with Jack in tow. She tells them to consider this, while she considers which of the bridge crew they would miss the most. "So, Jack Crusher to the bridge, would you please," she finishes.
