The Tribeca Festival premiere of season three is over, and reviews are starting to trickle in.

They're likely to be pretty light on spoilers, but let's keep them confined to this thread all the same.

• The episode title is likely a callback to the TNG season two finale, “Shades of Gray”.

• Janeway records the stardate as 62091.1 in her personal log.

    • We learn that it is also the 14th anniversary of Janeway receiving her first command, the USS Voyager. We saw Janeway’s first day aboard the Voyager in “Relativity*, but no stardate was given for that date.

”This isn’t your first rodeo.” Chakotay is referring to the VOY episode, “Rodeo” where the Voyager encountered the ancestors of a group of humans who’d been abducted to the Delta Quadrant from the American west in the 19th century, and assimilated by the Borg.

• The conversation in Janeway’s ready room took place before the the cliffhanger of the previous episode, “Brink”, which we then seen repeated here.

• The Emergency Janeway Hologram expresses envy regarding the Doctor’s mobile emitter. Though the Doctor’s emitter originated on the 29th century timeship, the Aeon, mobile emitters are in use in the early 25th century, as seen in PIC season three, some 16 years after this episode.

”It’s been a while since I piloted, uhm, anything.” Wesley Crusher frequently served as conn officer while he was an acting ensign aboard the USS Enterprise D.

”I’m a doctor, not a covert operative.” The Doctor is padding out his stats as the character who uses the ”I’m a [occupation], not a [different occupation]” construction the most across all of Star Trek.

    • The Doctor did serve as a spy for Overlookers in “Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy”, and again in “Renaissance Man”.

”Before you were a Traveller, you were a Starfleet officer…” While Picard did make Wesley an acting ensign in “Where No One Has Gone Before”, and then a field promotion to ensign in “Menage à Troi” he did go to Starfleet Academy as a cadet in “Final Mission” and technically never actually graduated.

    • ”...and from what I hear, a heck of a good one.” A large percentage of the officers on Voyager were former terrorists pressganged into being her crew, so Janeway’s standards might be a bit skewed.

• The Doctor disguises himself as Admiral Janeway to distract Ascencia. He did so previously in “Renissance Man”.

”As we used to say on the farm, ‘Let’s free the chickens from the coop.’” Ignoring the fact that no one has ever said that Janeway was established to have ”grown up around farmers” in “Resolutions”.

    • Riker claimed in “Lonely Among Us” that humans ”no longer enslave animals for food purposes.”

• Janeway set her combadge to overload, causing an explosion. We’ve previously seen combadges used to create a personal forcefield in “A Fistful of Datas”.

    • Janeway claims the exploding combadge was an old trick from her time at the Academy, which would explain why she had to repeat her second year three times, as we learned in “In the Flesh”.

I wasn't sure if this option would still be available to us, but the new season will continue to be shown on TV.

I thought it would be good to note this in case anyone wants to avoid a Paramount+ subscription for, you know, reasons.

So, I'm in looking for two things, maybe is hard, but try to not give me spoilers.

  1. Is the same Borg queen?
  2. The movie was before season 5 of voyager, right? How Janeway came back at that time? Maybe it will be explained later in the Voyager serie (I can figure out a time travel or something) in that case, at the moment of the movie, nobody ask how Janeway contact Picard?

EDIT: Nevermind, Janeway appears in Nemesis, not in First Contact.

So for those unaware, René Auberjonois filmed scenes as a Starfleet officer named West (who had an odd rank of Colonel). At the end of the movie it is revealed that West, disguised as a Klingon, had attempted to assassinate the Federation president. If you have no memory of this, then no worry. You’ve only seen the theatrical version. All the scenes which René appears were not included.

According to Memory Alpha, prior to 2009, the home media releases included the West scenes but did not list Colonel West or René Auberjonois in the credits. 2009 is when the first DVD release came out, being the theatrical cut. The page for West indicates the 4K remaster, released in 2022, includes West scenes but omitting the reveal of the assassin’s identity.

With multiple edits of The Undiscovered Country existing, what is considered the canonical version?

Not sure if this is permitted on this sub but I couldn't resist.

The fact that it says 5 pack and 4 bulbs is the cherry on the cake.

• The episode opens with flashback featuring a chyron informing us the stardate is 61914.3, setting the scene sometime between “Last Flight of the Protostar, Part II”, and “Ascension, Part I”, assuming stardates increase with the passage of time, as they show.

    • We get to see Wesley captured by Ascencia and the Vau N’Akat, which was revealed to be his status in “Ascension, Part I”.

• Gwyn records the current stardate as 62083.5 in her personal log.

”Sounds like they’re…playing poker.” We’ve seen that the senior staff of both the USS Enterprise D and the USS Cerritos enjoy playing poker in their off hours.

• With the expedition of Zero, the Protogies all return to wearing their civilian clothes from season one.

• The Protogies have an emergency site to site transporter with power for one beam-out. The appearance looks to be based on a similar device used by the Tom Paris of an alternate universe in "Non Sequitur".

    • Data used a similar device in “Star Trek Nemesis” to save Captain Picard, but that prototype emergency transport unit could only transport one person, whereas this one should be able to move the entire group.

”Wesley Crusher told us we must stay together.” Maj’el is referring to events depicted in “The Devourer of All Things, Part II”.

    • Later this episode, Wesley clarifies that he meant they needed to maintain physical proximity at all times. The Protogies have split up in: "Last Flight of the Protostar, Part II", "A Tribble Called Quest", "Cracked Mirror", and "Ascension, Part I".

• The other Vau N’Akat imprisoned with the Diviner are the Elders who were depicted in “Into the Breach, Part II” as being Solumn’s heads of state.

• To avoid detection by some guards, Zero puppets an unconscious Vau N’Akat while Gwyn provides a voice. In “The Magnificent Ferengi’ Rom and Nog come up with a way to remotely puppet the corpse of a Vorta and temporarily fool some Jem’Hadar and Iggy Pop.
