Star Trek: Picard - 17 Huge Details Everyone Missed In Trailer 2

2. Hugh Cured?

After rumours of his appearance, Hugh turns up in this second trailer twice and it seems he's been "cured' of his Borg infection in the same sort of way Seven Of Nine was.

We see that he's had his face augmentations removed, though he still bears the marks of his assimilation and he looks like he's been through a lot. He's also not completely free of the Borg technology.

There's also another shot of Hugh that offers another strange revelation: when he's seen running with Dahj and Seven Of Nine in what looks like a Borg/Romulan facility, he's wearing the same breast badge that Dahj and the others at the facility were wearing in the first trailer. That ties him to the facility too, suggesting that could be how he's "cured".

And even more ominously, he's wearing the same uniform as the scientists and guards working on the Borg corpse we see in the first trailer. Either he's stolen a uniform to escape, or he's one of them.

Interestingly, Dahj is wearing the same costume in this sequence, which looks like something of a jail break as she was in the first trailer when Narek enters her quarters and she's sitting on her bed (with the same stuffed toy we see her younger self holding in this second trailer).
