10 Dumbest Things In Star Trek: Picard
4. No Repercussions!
Given Starfleet's past feelings about those who have turned their loyalties elsewhere, it comes as something of a surprise that neither Seven of Nine nor Ro Laren are back wearing the uniform in the show's third season.
The immediate precursor to this comes in the form of Michael Eddington and a host of Badmirals who were all hanged, drawn and quartered for their poor moral decisions. Yet when it comes to Seven and Ro, there appears to be another agenda entirely.
Blanked by Starfleet, Seven turned to the Fenris Rangers and in season one's Stardust City Rag even goes as far as cold-blooded murder. Yes, this is likely because Bjayzl was killing ex-Borg for their implants, but it's still one heck of a rampage that sees her kill off a fair number of individuals at Freecloud. Starfleet nicely turns a blind eye to this and recruits her into the ranks by season three's opener.
Former Ensign Ro did her own "Eddington" before it was popular, heading over to the Maquis and betraying Picard, only for fans to see her back in uniform and with a rank of commander for the third season. Seems that the darker your past and the more grim your errors, the better the career path, especially in Picard.
Jurati, on the other hand, only kills Bruce Maddox and is still able to join the team for season two thanks to her surprise acquittal that seems more plot-requirement than justice served. One that deserves an honourable mention right here.
