Still struggling with the death of Data and the destruction of the Romulans' home planet in that film, Picard is drawn back to space when he encounters a troubled young woman (Isa Briones) with a mysterious background. He soon discovers she is a synthetic lifeform and a "daughter" of Data.
Along his journey to find answers, Picard gathers a crew and recruits Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) to his cause. By the end of the first season, Picard helps avert a massive war between the Romulans and the synths before succumbing to a fatal brain illness. However, his consciousness is transplanted into a synthetic body and Picard lives on.
In season 2, Starfleet calls on the legendary admiral after members of his former crew find an anomaly in space that threatens the galaxy. And wouldn't you know it, Q (John de Lancie) gets involved. No surprise that the show has brought on the godlike entity — he's been in some of the best Captain Picard episodes of Star Trek.
