Star Trek Picard: Every Easter Egg & Hidden Reference From 'Nepenthe'
6. She's Auntie Raffi From Now On
In one of the most jarring transitions in a Star Trek episode, we cut from Hugh's dramatic death scene to Agnes Jurati eating red velvet cake.
Agnes is having kind of a bad day after she killed her long lost BF in "Stardust City Rag" and now the Romulans are following the tracking device Commodore Oh gave her to eat in the flashback. Thankfully, Raffi's here to make her feel better and to call herself "Aunti Raffi".
As Agnes vomits red velvet all over the deck, Auntie Raffi calls out for the Emergency Hospitality Hologram seen in "Absolute Candor", but in the one hospitality emergency we've seen so far in Star Trek, the EHH fails to activate.
Is Agnes trying to make herself throw the tracking device up? Or is she just vomiting a lot in this episode by chance? Either way, it doesn't work, and Narek continues to shadow the La Sirena.
