Star Trek: Picard Confirms Spock Was Even More Important Than TOS Revealed
Spock has always been one of Star Trek's most famous figures — in-universe and out — but Star Trek: Picard reveals the Vulcan's hidden importance to franchise mythology. Star Trek: Picard season 2 has barely even started but, already, Patrick Stewart's Starfleet veteran is fending off another galactic-level threat to humanity. Following an unfriendly encounter with the Borg, Picard initiated self-destruct on the Stargazer, but Q interjected and sent his favorite plaything to a dystopian version of Star Trek's Prime timeline. The Picard Pals figure out Q changed history somewhere in 2024, meaning they need a method of time travel to go back and fix things. Picard suggests a slingshot maneuver, pointing out, "Kirk's Enterprise did it on more than one occasion."
