Welcome to the podcast maneuver the officially unofficial podcast for Star Trek Picard on Paramount Plus. I'm Jim. I may run.

And today we're talking about season two episode 10. It's the finale titled fair well. Aaron. Did how did this episode fair well in your opinion?

You know what? I'm going to be generous. I like this episode more than I liked any other episode, save like the first one and a half.

I didn't think I have a big problem season episode two because I'm like I'm still expecting a fun romp and that was kind of fun.

But yeah, I kind of liked lots of things and I like the end with Picard and Q being friends and hugging each other was the ending of a much better arc.

But just because those two are those two and because of the way they're saying it and because they're the characters, it's still kind of worked.

Big ups, big, big ups to Will Wheaton for playing a giant oaky doke on a solve selling that sad Star Trek boy that like, yeah, kind of sucks. They got the whole crew together.

But I guess I'm being left out all G I'm sitting in my on my Twitter corner right in fan fiction to make myself feel better.

Like you fooled me. You fooled me brother. You got me.

There's a lot of schlocky stupid shit. A lot of those big speeches that don't work, but the stuff with class.

This is why I'm holding that hope for next season, even though I'm an idiot.

The classic characters saying sincere lines of each other or reprising the kind of roles that they had work for me.

What do you think?

I'm very much on the same page. I found myself sort of moved by the ending with Q because this is a bit of vulnerability you never get from him.

I think with like one exception when he becomes human temporarily.

Yeah, and tying it back in with this new trauma that we were discovering Picard has had all along.

I think it worked out pretty well.

I hinted out with the feedback podcast for 209.

I do think they were able to turn Picard's trauma into something that I can largely get behind as far as how you might heal from something like this.

Examining it and then realizing that your life is not over yet and all these things.

And then getting the second chance. I thought that moment he has with not talent.

Can we call her not talent?
