Picard and Guinan have a warm reunion in S2 trailer for Star Trek: Picard

The second season of Star Trek: Picard will premiere on Paramount+.

The second season of Star Trek: Picard is almost here and we have an official trailer. In addition to seeing Jean-Luc Picard and Q meet, fans will be even more excited to see Jean-Luc Picard and the El-Aurian bar hostess from Star Trek: The Next together.

The series is set 20 years after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis and begins with Jean-Luc Picard retiring to the family vineyard. Dahj came to interrupt his existence and begged for his help. Picard failed to save her. She was killed in front of him by assassins from the Zhat Vash, who are dedicated to eliminating all artificial life forms. Dahj was actually a synthetic, and she had a twin sister, Soji, who was also in danger.

Picard was determined to save Soji, but he had been gone a long time, and his entreaties were rejected. The crew included a skilled thief and pilot of the ship La Sirena, as well as a former intelligence officer and a recovering drug user.

Seeing Guinan and Picard together again gives us some warm fuzzies.

Over the last year, some details about the second season have trickled out. Even though Picard's consciousness is now in a synthetic body, the show will still explore themes of dealing with the last stage of one's life, the nature of connectedness, and Picard's struggle with his. The official synopsis is as follows:

Picard takes the legendary Jean-Luc Picard and his crew on a new journey into the past. Picard has to confront the perils of 21st century Earth in a desperate race against time to save the galaxy's future, and face the ultimate trial from one of his greatest foes.

During an appearance on The View in January 2020, Patrick Stewart invited Whoopi Goldberg to reprise her role in S2 as Guinan. On First Contact Day last year, Paramount dropped an initial S2 tease that implied that Q, an extra-dimensional being with power over time, space, the laws of physics, and reality itself, would return and that the second season would play with time. The first look at Q was given in a one-minute tease last July.

Q is up to his old tricks.

Time has been broken in S2 with a lot of changes. We saw Elnor and Raffi fleeing for their lives, Soji dressed all in white, Rios in a snazzy new Federation uniform with new insignia, and Agnes Jurati in civilian garb. Seven of Nine woke up in an unfamiliar apartment, and when she looked in the mirror, her Borg implant was gone.

Some of the same footage can be seen in the full trailer. Picard ruminates on the moments that still haunt him, "moments upon which history turns." Q welcomed Picard to the "road not taken" when he woke up. The Federation doesn't seem so noble as the version we've known in the past, and what is that mysterious blue substance in a vial that Q gives to Altan Inigo Soong?

The Borg Queen might be to blame for some time shenanigans that bring Picard and his crew back to 2024. The significance of that year is detailed in the two-part episode "Past Tense". America embarked on a course of social and political reform in the year of the Bell Riots, which resulted in the formation of the Federation. messing with that point could have serious consequences.

Annie Wersching plays the Borg Queen.

Picard is desperate for someone who can help him understand what is going on with the divergence in time and he walks into a bar that is run by a woman. I need some tea. Earl Grey. Guinan is wearing a red hat. She warmly embraces her old friend and said she believed he had one final frontier left.

The second season of Star Trek: Picard will premiere on Paramount+. We'll be getting more adventures from the crew of La Sirena in the third season.
