The Inner Light - s5e25

Re:Engage TNG

Picard playing the flute will get me every damn time. So damn good. While investigating deep space, the Enterprise finds a random odd-shaped probe out there. Before they know it, Picard is knocked unconscious by a beam of energy and lays down on the Bridge thanks to Riker gentle hands. He wakes up in a rustic house, being cared for by a woman who says he's his wife. Picard has all the memories of being Picard, but his wife Eline calls him Kamin and says he's a respected iron weaver who's been sick. A whole life goes by, Picard getting older as he ages through the decades on the planet Kataan, has children, grandchildren, and learns to love playing the Ressikan flute while the Enterprise crew attempt to break him out of his coma. But it's only been 25 minutes... Wonderful episode. Watch it and weep.
