Star Trek Picard S2 E 8 "Mercy"

It's Season 2 Episode 8 of Picard!

Well, Picard and Guinan are in an undisclosed location, some basement FBI facility, being questioned by the tenacious Agent Wells, who has a real bee in his bonnet about aliens.

Meanwhile, Borg/Jurati (AKA "Borgati") is running rampant through LA. Raffi and Seven are on her trail, but catching up to her has disastrous consequences. They are, however, able to figure out what she's up to– namely building nanoprobes to start assimilating folks.

Borgati heads to the house of Adam Soong and sweet talks him into helping her with visions of personal grandeur. He is entirely susceptible because his daughter/experiment has just walked out on him with Q's blue-serum that allows her to endure sunlight and dust, i guess. 

And otherwise, Rios is making kissy-kissy with Dr. Ramirez on La Sirena while her son Ricardo eats too much cake. Little do they know, Borgati and Soong and a couple recently proto-assimilated super-soldiers are about to drop in on them and let loose the dogs of war.
