It definitely was. But what made it so emotionally endearing to this TNG fan was what also made the plot increasingly implausible. One of my co-workers is also a big TNG fan and he too thought the plot in season 3, especially at the end, was ridiculous.

2:52 These aliens looked like the jellyfish creatures from TNG's very first episode ("Encounters at Far Point"), seen now with 21st century CGI. If it's really them this makes it so bittersweet since they were Picard and his TNG crew' very first contact and likely one of their very last adventure as a crew and a family too. Too bad Deanna is not traveling on the 'Titan.' If she does, she would likely translate the humming of these aliens as: "A feeling of great joy and gratitude! Great joy.....and gratitude!!"

Riker is a hell of a Captain (and we all know who to thank for that), but Picard is the inspiration that we all expect him to be. Absolutely beautiful!
