It's an interesting episode, but what did these people really expect Picard to do, walk around for the rest of his life extoling the virtues of the alien civilization long dead?

They probably presented the most egalitarian/utopian version of their society, which was instead mostly peopled by a bunch of racist idiots.

Miles also lived a lifetime in a blink of an eye… but it sucked.

Poor Kamin-Picard.

Old Picard kind of looks like Larry David.

This simulated experience is rough, but at least Picard didn't have O'Brien's jail experience in #HardTime. 😖

Having Picard running around in that sleeveless top helped me realize that Patrick Stewart was really buff! 😮

What would happen if you lived an entire lifetime in the span of five minutes? Well, today I'm going to tell you a story that links science fiction to Chinese philosophy and The Beatles.
