Picard has some questions on what is taking place in Stardust Town Rag.
Video screenshot by way of Amanda Kooser/CNETJean-Luc Picard and the motley group of L. a. Sirena are heading to a daring new planet that is full of sci-fi visible references and tosses in a large nod to a Megastar Trek: Deep House 9 favourite. For those who’d somewhat no longer know till you notice episode five, Stardust Town Rag, then flip away presently.
In a CBS All Get right of entry to unique clip from episode five, we zoom into the planet Freecloud, which seems like a pass between Blade Runner and Las Vegas. Rolling cube, brilliant indicators and crowded streets greet ex-Starfleet officer Cristóbal Rios (Santiago Cabrera) when he beams into the thick of it. (Disclosure: CNET is owned by way of ViacomCBS.)
The identify “Freecloud” positive feels like a connection with David Bowie’s 1969 track Wild Eyed Boy from Freecloud.
Rios finally ends up proper by way of Quark’s Bar, an immediate callout to Deep House 9 common Quark. Quark, a Ferengi, ran the bar and gaming area at the area station. This model of the bar seems like a larger, grander imaginative and prescient very a lot in line with Quark’s business ambitions. Whether or not or no longer we can meet the Ferengi himself is unknown at this level, however it is a scrumptious teaser.
The remainder of the clip comes to the group’s plans for Freecloud, together with a dialogue of the flowery get dressed required to slot in.
Episode five of Megastar Trek: Picard debuts on Thursday on CBS All Get right of entry to and on Amazon High Video in maximum different nations.
At first revealed Feb. 19.
