oh, we about shit our pants. I was… 11? I watched with my dad, and I think it’s the first time I ever heard him say, “what the fuck!”
Discussions were furiously heated. Would Picard become a new Borg terror? Would he be saved? Nobody knew! I cried. I cried a lot because afaik, my hero was dead… worse than dead— assimilated!
Then Riker says, “FIRE!” and I’m like, “NOOOOO!!!"
we didn’t know what to do with ourselves. I’m still traumatized form that fucking cliffhanger!
What was the thinking around that time … did people think Picard was gone for good or was there an expectation that they’d find a way to get him back?

Oh god!
What was it like watching the resolution then? How did episode 2 of season 4 hit given the cliffhanger?
cathartic with lots of “fuck ya!” and crying
more crying. also, RIP René (and I totally noticed the same actor played young Jean-Luc in S06 episode Rascals)
