Note: Before I get into the post I wanna give a shout out to the Addicts that work with my husband at the MLB Network. Hi everyone at MLB Network! And yes…he really is my husband. Go see him tomorrow he’ll have some stuff for you….oh and thanks for being Awesome! -Alissa
Hello There Space Clammers!
Star Trek has taken over Quahog! A Starfleet Shuttle has conveniently crashed in Quahog and apparently someone decided that the future of the Galaxy should rest on Peter’s shoulders. (cause that sounds like a smart idea!) It’s your mission to help Peter save the Galaxy, after all it’d be a pretty boring game if he did it by himself!
Along the way you’ll unlock skins/costumes for your favorite residents of Quahog…and in some cases your favorite Star Trek Characters! These costumes will help you earn items needed to unlock other characters and more Dilithium Crystals, the much needed event currency for this event! During Phase 5 (week 5), there are two costumes you can unlock and one of those is Picard a skin for Locutus. Let’s take a closer look at this costume and see just what happens when you unlock it in your Quahog…
Picard is the eighth skin in Star Trek that you’ll be able to unlock.
However, unlike some of the others you won’t have to collect crazy STUFF to get him. Instead you’ll just have to continue to collect energy to replicate him in the Replicator.
Here’s a look at what you’ll need to get Picard in the Replicator:
8,000
21
21
Once collected you’ll have to create in Al Harrington’s, this will take 10 minutes.
Picard does have a short questline (the same one that will trigger you to create him in the Replicator), called The Return of Picard, which you can view here…however, his primary role is to help you earn more Dilithium Crystals and help you earn items to unlock more characters!
Here’s a look at Picard’s tasks:
| Task | Length | Earns | Location |
| Engage | 1hr | 5  1  |
Enterprise/Visual |
| Picard Maneuver | 2hrs | 10 2 |
Visual |
| Play the Flute | 4hrs | 15 3 |
Visual |
| Facepalm | 6hrs | 20 4 |
Enterprise/Visual |
| Drink Tea | 8hrs | 25 5 |
Enterprise |
| Make It So | 12hrs | 35 6 |
Visual |
| Shut Up, Wesley! | 16hrs | 40 7 |
Enterprise |
| Try Earl Gray, But Cold | 18hrs | 40 8 |
Enterprise |
| Join Million Mile High Club | 24hrs | 50 10 |
Enterprise |
And that my friends completes the character profile for Jean-Luc Picard!
Just for fun, here are some of his/Locutus’ Phrases…
“Resistance is Futile”
“I am Locutus of Borg”
“You will become one with the Borg”
“Engage”
“Make it So”
“Oh get a sense of humor”
“Commander Worf’s head looks like a Fanny”
“Tea, Earl Grey, Hot”
“Here it comes”
“Would you join me in a laugh?”
What are your thoughts on Picard? Have you unlocked him yet? Thoughts on his tasks? Any tasks you wish he had that he doesn’t currently? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!

I can finally unlock the skin for Stewart, and the skin for Stewie and they have both disappeared out of the replicator. What gives? There’s only two days left!

I love Picard. Much better now that he’s not Borg. I just wish he had the task draw a smiley face in the warp core.

Alissa. Tell your husband that I am so jealous that he gets to work for the MLB network. I watch their MLB Central program every AM. I am retired but I would go back to work in a heartbeat to have a job there. I was lucky enough to have had a job with a major league club back in the 80’s, and would give my right arm to have that job back.
Oh. Thanks for what you and Bunny do for us addicts.

Love Picard, love his tasks, STILL hoping that TinyCo decides to give all the Trek characters bridge tasks so they can be standing in their correct positions. At least Picard has his Facepalm task so he’s sitting in the chair, but the rest of them need some bridge action! Get on it TinyCrew!

I really like the tasks that interact with the Enterprise – Crusher in Sickbay, Riker and Guinan in Ten Forward, and especially Piccard’s hilarious Facepalm on the Bridge. What will happen to these animated tasks once the event ends and the rooms won’t be available any more?

I’m not sure if this was addressed, but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I went to check and see if I had everything I needed for the Stewie costume, but him and Picard are now missing from my replicator. Did I really miss out on them?? My rooms are still dropping things I need for the Stewie costume though..

I’m just hoping that he will still be able to facepalm and Make it So once the enterprise goes away, worried that the jobs will not work without the bridge set.
Hopefully in Quahog the chair just shows up like it does for George Takei.

He can “make it so” anywhere. But yeah, would be good if they just make the chair appear for facepalming.

Not sure where to post this. I like, like others, are not being awarded the 5 clams when coming back from the borg cube. It says I won them but just never drops them. This is only happening on my galaxy s4 but has done so 3 times. I have messaged them in game each time starting 5 days ago but have had no reply not even automated. My question is should I hold out any hope for contact or am I just buried that far deep? Seems like I should have had some response since last weekend. What are your thoughs?

When I addressed this concern with them, they stated that via troubleshooting they had found this issue mainly with those that are not fully updated. So check the App Market and if you are up to date, just give them a bit to respond. I am keeping them aware of the reports on my end too.

Actually I think it was the Replicator. I am not sure but they were rectangular in shape and huge! I could not find room to place them. Clicked out of game to post here and when I went back this morning, they were gone. Not the warp cores btw. No matter. Still loving the Mystery Boxes. 🙂

If they came from the Mystery Box… They are the Computer Banks and will be mixed in your Inventory (Star Trek Icon). If from the Replicator, that would be Picard’s Fencing… but you have to create those. Also would be sent to Quahog Inventory. 😉

Hi Alissa’s Husband’s Co-worker Addict Friends from the MLB Network. Lol. As a long-time Addict, I can confirm, Alissa’s hubby pops in now and then. Most of the time he chooses to remain icognito. Don’t blame him a bit a bit for that! 😉 Hope you are all enjoying the game! 🙂

One big one, here…
I remain totally disappointed that there is no joint task for Picard/Locutus and Patrick Stewart!!! I know PS is a premium character, and not everyone has him (heck I got him from the best of 2014 box!), so it doesn’t have to related to a quest line, but there really should be *some* joint something for them to do together!!!
Otherwise, I quite like the Picard skin, and related tasks/quests.
