PICARD Season 3 Episode 2 BREAKDOWN: Every Star Trek Easter Egg You Missed
Показать описание
Picard season 3 is here, and it's time for an episode 2 breakdown! Beverly and Picard shippers rejoice, because Jean-Luc is no longer the final Picard. Jack Crusher is the heir to the chair, and we found plenty of easter eggs in this episode. There are connections to The Nex Generations, Star Trek Films, Lower Decks, and maybe even Star Wars.

Welcome back to ScreenCrush, I’m Ryan Arey, and this is all of the Easter eggs, references, and secret canon connections in Star Trek: Picard, Season 3, Episode 2, “Disengage.” Obviously, spoilers are coming at you faster than Picard can say [“Engage.”]
And some of you pointed out that we didn’t mention every easter egg in the credits of the show–and that’s for a good reason. Some of them are spoilers for future episodes–so don;t worry, we’ll get there.
You might think there aren’t any Easter eggs in these new Star Trek brand intros, but you’d be wrong! In addition to the fact that Picard opens with the Titan warping around, we also see the enemy vessel, The Shrike, lurking in this intro!
Right away, the episode takes us back two weeks and Jack Crusher is rocking out to a ‘70s rock song, Guardians of the Galaxy-style [clip: picard with “hooked ona feeling”]
But Jack’s song is a 1970s track from a Texas-based band called Baby. The song is “Starchild.” If you listen to the full lyrics of this song, it sounds a lot like a child who was born in space. Maybe Jack was?
This short flashback also reveals that the SS Eleos is a “Mariposa medical vessel.” This Easter egg exists as the result of a time paradox. In Picard Season 2, Rios helped Dr. Teresa Ramirez with her 21st-century clinic “Clinica Las Mariposas.” Because Rios stayed in the past, we later learned that he and Teresa continued their humanitarian aid for the rest of their lives, bringing medical supplies to anyone in need. So, this specific medical group — Mariposa — probably exists, because of Jean-Luc Picard's time-traveling in Season 2.

Jack also meets some Fenris Rangers, who Seven worked for in Picard Seasons 1 and 2, and tries to bribe them with Romulan Ale. The bottle here is just like the bottle Bones had in The Wrath of Khan. And we’re reminded that it’s illegal.
[Clip: Worf saying “Romulan Ale should be illegal.]
Jack also says “mon ami” which is French for “my friend.” This probably should make us wonder if Jack’s dad is also French. Even though he is a frenchemn who rarely speaks any actual French.
[Clip: Picard saying “Merde” in “Elementary Dear Data”]
Back in the present, Jack mentions he and Beverly tangoed with [“three guys in Starfleet uniforms tried to prime-direct me into an early grave.”] The Prime Directive, of course, refers to the biggest rule in Starfleet, which says you’re not supposed to interfere with the natural development of lesser-advanced cultures. Picard broke the Prime Directive a lot.
[Clip: Worf saying, “The Prime Directive is not a matter of degrees in “Pen Pals”]
Jack jokes that [“history remembers you with one less pip.”] This is a reference to the little round rank insignia called “pips” which have been part of Star Trek uniforms since the start of The Next Generation in 1987. Four pips mean you’re a captain. More than that, an Admiral or higher. Basically, jack is saying that Picard may have had a career as an admiral and a commandant of the academy, but people only care about his time as a captain. Maybe a meta commentary on how fondly we remember the good old days of TNG.
Speaking of famous Starfleet officers from Star Trek history. When the Titan’s shuttle is destroyed, we briefly see that the name of this shuttle was “Saavik.” This references Saavik from The Wrath of Khan, The Search For Spock, The Voyage Home, and so many comic books and novels–originally played by the late Kirstie Alley.
