LeVar Burton deserved an Emmy for his direction of the scene. Everything about it is brilliant. The way Picard listens to Rikers version, says nothing, offers no opinion or response and simply begins reading the report again, the way he circles Riker with Riker slightly out of focus just as he’s mentioning a coverup. Having Riker say nothing after Picard’s curt “dismissed”, Brilliant. A good actor doesn’t have to be constantly talking, talking, talking.

@waynepalumbo8917

It was a great scene - and by now Riker is conditioned to know that once the Captain says "dismissed" you say nothing and walk away. I love the interpersonal dramas this show had. Showing that even a decorated officer can have issues or errors in judgement, or whatever. Makes you feel less bad about sending that email out with a few grammatical errors that only your supervisor would notice.

Risky thing to say by Picard. If he ever followed through on that threat, Riker would have every right to launch a formal grievance of the decision, and Picard would be forced to disclose how he came to that decision (by illegally obtaining and reading a report that he was not authorized to have).
@WarpRulez
@WarpRulez 2 года назад
@@ArmyJames Picard would be intelligent enough to come up with completely valid and legitimate reasons to demote or kick out Riker. It's not like Riker has exactly a perfectly clean sheet, and an organization like Starfleet surely has regulations, codes, rules and enough bureaucracy to find enough fault in Riker's past actions which would justify his demotion from his position of FO, and which Picard has overlooked over the years.
@ArmyJames
@ArmyJames 2 года назад
Maybe, but I don’t know what the legitimate reason would be for obtaining a classified report under false pretences. Picard’s friends at Starfleet would be less than impressed that he threw them under the bus, and it would be the last favour he’d ever get, once word of this spread. In some ways, the leak of a highly classified document from within is a bigger security threat than the presenting issue. Itself.
@WarpRulez
@WarpRulez 2 года назад
@@ArmyJames Why would Picard be throwing his friends at high command under the bus, if he's just demoting or kicking out Riker? The real reason for it doesn't need to be publicly revealed. The official explanation could merely be that Riker is transferring to another ship. If a reason for this has to be stated, he's intelligent enough to come up with something completely plausible. Riker would probably agree to keep up the same pretense, so as to not reveal anything he isn't allowed to.

He’s turned down enough commands and fallen far enough behind in his career that Starfleet is finally passing him over for his peers, and Picard just threatened the only thing he has left in his career. I miss good Star Trek so much.
@Ares99999
@Ares99999 Год назад
Picard did make it very precise however. He says he's going to give Riker the benefit of the doubt. But if Riker goes "Secret First, Crew Second", then Picard simply won't be able to trust him WITH the crew as XO. Picard initially chose Riker because Riker seemed the guy who would get in the way of a superior to do what he believed is right. If Riker ends up bowing to a superior even though he knows its wrong... then Picard cannot work with him and will transfer him.

​@Ares99999 that is why I love picard and riker's dynamic. Picard knows his Persian flaw is how strictly and rigidly he adheres to the Prime Directive, and even at the cost of saving lives he might not be able to go against it until it is too late. Riker had huge accolades from starfleet in almost everything he did, but Picard liked that he stood up to his superiors when given suicidal orders, or fool's errands that could have put crews in jeopardy when attending the academy. He got Riker as his own foil. They each learned from one another, and each became so much more.

Picard clearly provides the context before informing Riker of the possibility of relieving him as first officer. Maybe Riker is stung by his captain and friend openly saying this, but any officer would surely understand Picard's reasoning. You don't imperil your ship and crew by withholding any relevant information that would allow the captain to determine the risks & motivations involved in the mission. I'd expect Riker to remain composed and to absolutely take to heart what Picard is warning him about. Riker has no grounds for any form of reaction to Picard's words.
@iconwolf9044
@iconwolf9044 6 месяцев назад
The loss of position would definitely be a blow, but Riker is talented enough and accomplished enough to bounce back. In my opinion, the real cut is the realization he's risking it he respect of the person who's opinion probably matters most to him.

There's an important but subtle thing here. Picard is conflicted because he knows that not only his first officer, but someone who he trusted implicitly, and even considered a friend, is lying to his face, and he wants to know why. You can see this by the fact that he's calling him by his first name, Will. Even though they're talking about secretive Starfleet stuff, Picard is basically asking Riker to be honest with him, not just as his captain, but as his friend. When Picard realizes Riker won't confess, that's when he has to pull rank and threaten Riker's career. He does it curtly and abruptly because he's probably a little hurt, and lashing back how he can.

@@BradleyJCude I think it was precisely because Picard had suggested Wesley for the academy and had guided him on the very ship Wesley grew up on. Wesley's lie was a slap in the face of Picard's trust, but Picard also got a very harsh lesson in parenting that day. In a very real way, Picard was the father figure Wesley didn't have anymore, and it's why he was as good as he was for so long - but then as soon as Wesley was outside of PIcard's direct gaze for a while, he messed up. What Picard had to learn is that kids are going to mess up, and sometimes, they're going to mess up BAD, and this means you have to be the mean parent, but it's for their own good. Wesley eventually became what made him happy and matured, if you remember in later episodes.

@@Slixer I don't really call it pompous at all; I think it was a much-needed moral rock and compass that Riker probably was later thankful for; it helped clear his mind of all of Archer's ACTUALLY pompous and arrogant diktats. And I don't think that Picard would ever consider himself free of any such moral failings. In the episode First Duty, where he dressed down Wesley, it was clear that he himself had been in a similar dilemma at the same Academy. All people face a situation where a tough moral choice must be made, and sometimes a scene like this helps remind them to have the courage to call things what they are, and be guided by that moral compass rather than make the easier, but wrong, choice. I think Picard helped a lot of people navigate their moral dilemmas. And then, there was the very real threat facing the ship itself, when many unknown dangers might have to be confronted. Picard felt he had a duty to the crew, even if it meant doing uncomfortable things like challenging authority, and laying down authority on someone he had a good relationship with. I give him kudos for that.

@@harveywallbanger3123 I can't think of any episodes offhand where Picard has flat-out lied to his crew about mission details where they weren't classified above a Commander's clearance. But, even if you're right: If he's acting under direct orders from Starfleet, he's obligated to carry those out unless they go against the guiding principles. He's not obligated to tell the crew anything more than what they need in order to do their jobs. As it happens, he finds that he gets better results if the crew has more information (plus it's a TV series), so he often does. But that doesn't mean he has to every time. A First Officer, however, IS obligated to report honestly to the Captain and to carry out the Captain's orders - just as a Captain is obligated to report to and carry out the orders of his superiors, i.e. an Admiral.

What sold this scene was the acting by both actors. It's one of the best performances of both Patrick and Jonathan together. Here's Riker; a man that Picard has known and trusts throughout the Enterprise's mission; and now Riker is acting with suspicion. That not only upsets Picard, but hurts him too. The possibility that Riker could allow Pressman to put the Enterprise and her crew at risk, and not say anything is the ultimate betrayal of their long standing relationship. Both actors sell their position here: Riker trying to navigate that fine line between disobeying an Admiral's orders, and not betraying the trust that he and Picard developed, and Picard demanding answers to his questions, and also conveying a sense of disappointment that he even had to consider the possibility of stripping the XO position from Riker. A great scene from a great episode.

God damn this brings back memories on WHY I watched TNG and most scifi back in the day. While CGI battles are fun, it's this level of HONEST drama that a viewer can not keep their eyes off the scene. It's just a few locked down camera shot and the actors really being great acting delivering a believable situation and emotions that feel real to their past relationships.

Should've been followed through though. At least Starfleet should have removed Riker by forcing his resignation in exchange for a prison sentence. This is a full commissioned officer we're talking about that's supposed to rise to a higher level than those who serve under him. This kind of scandal would never fly in the real world.

@bill gates I didn't see any Brexit _in the first episode_ (which is all I have access to). Just prejudice against all androids (which has been a thing in Trek since Roger Korby in TOS) and a conspiracy involving a Romulan faction. The episode had *_many_* moments where the plot slowed down, allowing Picard to do his thing. I liked it, and I say this as a man who *_HATES_* STD with a passion.

Star Trek: Picard seems like just another flashing lights show for general consumption. So many plot points and scenes make zero sense, and it, just like most of modern Trek, focuses on Abramisms to even be palatable to the most common denominator. From episode one, the federation isn't the federation, the Romulans are braindead and the crisis could've been avoided by doing some rudimentary cosmology and going "hey... that sun seems awfully angry".

@@espalorp3286 1. You're trying to judge an entire series by the first episode. TNG's first episode comes to mind... it was garbage compared to average TOS. 2. The hobus supernova (hobus is not Romulis) was caused by a Romulan subspace weapon experiment gone wrong.

Great scene, I love the complexity of the situation, of Riker's past and role in the mutiny event, that he was naive, not wrong in defending his captain MAYBE, but he recognizes he was a bit of a greenhorn, and he's only keeping secrets due to orders, though a little shame probably tinges his discretion. Picard is understandably pissed off, BUT he tries to tip-toe this reasonably well and make his stance clear; he respects Will's position, but the safety of his ship supersedes any conspiracies of silence in the face of the well being of his crew and ship put in danger for some experiment and discretion clause, and he will act accordingly. Diplomatic and fare, but clear and absolute as his line in the sand, I love it.
