Notes
- The cityscape seen from Marta’s quarters was originally created for the 1976 Logan’s Run movie.
- The sequence with Picard being stabbed by Nausicans was originally told in the episode “Samaritan Snare” from season 2.
- The only “Q” episode that doesn’t have Q in the title besides the first and last TNG episodes.
- In real life, the DS9 episode “Q-Less” aired right before this episode. In that one, Q says “Maybe I should give Picard a visit”. Amusing timing.
- There is a shooting script available here which shows some slightly different scenes as played out in final episode.
- Dr. Selar is mentioned in this episode, but not seen.

In short, Picard dies, and Q gives him a chance to re-live parts of his life over; correct mistakes that kind of thing. It's a long play on how one's mistakes - the things we think could have made things better

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek TNG Ep 141 - Tapestry - 15 Feb 1993 2/2 end up being important in who we are. Not the typical comedic Q outing except for one line (is there a John Luck Pick-erd here?). Great stuff that looks into the past of Picard's life. Once again, great acting by Patrick Stewart.
