Remembrance is the first episode of the first season of Star Trek: Picard, an American television series in the Star Trek franchise featuring the character Jean-Luc Picard.

Plot
In an interview, retired Starfleet Admiral Jean-Luc Picard reveals that he resigned in protest after Starfleet abandoned plans to rescue Romulan citizens from a supernova when rogue synthetics attacked the rescue fleet. Starfleet banned synthetics after the attack. Romulan assassins attack a young woman named Dahj, killing her boyfriend. This triggers something in Dahj, and she kills the assassins. Experiencing visions of Picard and seeing his interview, Dahj seeks him out. Picard visits the Starfleet Archives and finds an old painting entitled "Daughter" made by his old synthetic lieutenant Data. It features a figure resembling Dahj. Picard and Dahj are attacked by more assassins, and Dahj is killed. Picard meets with Dr. Agnes Jurati at the Daystrom Institute, and she explains that Dahj could be Data's daughter due to an experimental procedure known as fractal neuronic cloning, a process that results in twin androids with organic bodies. Meanwhile, Dahj's twin, Soji Asha, works in a Borg Cube that has been reclaimed by Romulan refugees.
