"Mariner, put on a protective suit. At least the pants!"

Who is interested in Nick Locarno is a character from TNG season 5 episode 19, and there is an opinion that the character of Tom Paris for Voyager was created on his basis (the actor is the same)

@Gareth: at the same time, Mariner greets him as an old acquaintance, it's strange. They will probably tell you something else.

@Nog: it turns out that Mariner is about the same age as Wesley Crusher, since she knows Sato and Locarno

And the season is gaining momentum. I wonder what this Nick wants so much?

Universal unification is what I buy into every time, I just love it when the warring parties reconcile and fight back against the assholes together

@adeline666: Perhaps the point is a reference to the Voyager series, where on the planet the former Borg tried to survive outside the collective and also ran off to national recognition circles.

@Gareth: or a series where Voyager is stuck in a pocket universe, or a bunch of different series on the same topic...

Starfleet is about putting together the mysteries of life, not fighting wars

Oh, that is, a comedy cartoon of class B with jokes "ass-gygy", this speaks directly in words through the mouth of the most goofy character, and Strange New Worlds, which is positioned in every possible way as a new hope of the Track, half of the season through the main positive characters promotes the idea "why not kill these here, they are all creatures".
We are living in an interesting time, comrades.

For those who do not remember who the Sieve is, about which Mariner speaks.
At TNG, Wesley Crusher was sent to the academy out of sight, he began to study and got into the team of advanced pilots on the course. The commander of the pilots decided that he was the coolest and should show off at the graduation, so he pressed the team to learn a dangerous and forbidden aerial maneuver to show at the graduation and everyone was blown away by how cool they were and what, of course, he was the coolest as their commander.
Of course, during training it turned out that the maneuver was banned for a reason, and one of them died. The commander pressed down the command to perjure himself that he had died due to his crookedness and was to blame himself, and they were almost flying around in a circle. Then Picard flew in, stepped on Crusher's tail and knocked out the truth, after which he said that either Crusher confessed himself, with some chance of making amends, or Picard reports himself, and then the coffin is a cemetery.
Crusher confessed, the cadets were sued, the commander took the blame, he was expelled in disgrace, the rest were left for the second year with records in their personal file and other fines.
The commander was the same Nick Lorano.
Sito was also on this team, and everything was much worse with her.

@hinarien: Sito graduated from the Academy and was assigned to the Enterprise to Picard - at Picard's insistence, so that she would have a chance to clear her name.
One day, Picard personally psychologically pressed her for her past sins. Like, not earning a good reputation well enough. The story was long and with several participants, but in a nutshell - Picard psychologically processed her, and she volunteered for a rather dubious mission: in order for the Cardassian spy to return to his homeland and not fall under suspicion, he takes a Bajoran Sieve with him to the shuttle and says that he is carrying a prisoner. He passes the border, then puts her in an evacuation capsule and sends her back to the Federation territory, and he says that wow, Bajorka suddenly freed herself, defeated him and almost killed him.
Of course, the Sieve did not fly anywhere, the Enterprise found only the wreckage of the evacuation capsule.

This is one of the most disgusting series about Picard. Considering the difference in rank, experience, age - yes, in everything! - considering that Picard is not just her captain, but once sat on her trial and had a hand in her punishment, Sito had NO chance not to succumb to his manipulation. He didn't order her to sacrifice her life - this is Starfleet, it happens there, it was shown in the series about the test for the command rank - he FORCED her to do it, and as if it was her voluntary choice, her initiative.
So Mariner has reason to be angry. This story really smells like excellent shit.

@Snegnarek: I also like such references in the comments, because in such a LORE without eidetic memory, you can't remember everything.
But this particular story is very much remembered, precisely because of the abomination.
The commander's test led Diana to the idea that she would have to order people, including her friends, to sacrifice themselves. Picard could have ordered it the same way-and Sito would have agreed anyway, most likely because she would have seen it as an opportunity to really redeem herself. In the light of all the incoming ones, it was from him that she would have taken such an order.
We have been shown many times how captains say "I will not order you, only volunteers go on this task."
Moreover, Bajorka was not even required there, in general. And many other races can be disguised as Bajorans.
But nevertheless.
