Easter Eggs You Missed In Star Trek: Picard Episode 6

In the sixth episode of Star Trek: Picard, Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the La Sirena reach the Borg Artifact, and Soji finally begins to learn the truth about who and what she is. From Voyager nods to visuals pulled straight from Deep Space Nine, here are all the Easter eggs and references in "The Impossible Box."

Early on in "The Impossible Box," as the La Sirena nears the former Borg cube now known as "The Artifact," Picard instructs the computer in his study to search for the terms "the Artifact," "treaty," and "the Borg." When he sits down to reluctantly scroll through the results, several of the images on which Picard chooses to linger are easily identifiable. There's the ex-Borg, Hugh, both when he first came aboard the Enterprise on The Next Generation, and then again as he appears in Picard; several shots of ex-Borg in the midst of their reclamation procedures; and of course, Picard as Locutus of Borg.

But there are also several other quick glimpses of search results you may not have recognized. The first was a shot of a Federation ship firing on a Borg cube and seemingly doing some damage, which could have been from the battle at the opening of Star Trek: First Contact. The next image is of the Romulan Continuing Committee, which is taken straight from the Deep Space Nine episode in which a character becomes entangled in a Tal Shiar plot. There is also a brief image of the Paris skyline in the year 2372, which was taken from the Deep Space Nine episode "To the Death." In that episode, the DS9 crew has to destroy an Iconian Gateway, a technological portal which could instantly transport people over enormous distances, which is very similar to the device Picard and Soji use to escape the Romulans at the end of "The Impossible Box."

As the La Sirena nears the Borg Artifact, Raffi turns on the charm to contact her old friend and Starfleet contact, Emmy, requesting diplomatic credentials for Picard. But Emmy refuses at first, saying that the Romulans are in a "250-year bad mood."

If you're wondering what happened to the Romulans two and a half centuries ago to make them so cranky, well, that's about the time they first came in contact with humans in 2152. Just a few years later, in 2156, the Earth-Romulan war began, which only lasted for four years, but is still having repercussions over 200 years into the future. The end of the war was marked by the establishment of the Romulan neutral zone in 2160, and led directly to the formation of the United Federation of Planets in 2161. Given the Romulans' long-running tension with the Federation, it's no wonder that they're still in a bad mood.
