A made-up son
26 September 2023
Warning: Spoilers
So, we see Bok again. A Ferengi that Picard met before. Picard killed his son several years ago when he destroyed a Ferengi ship that started firing on his former ship. Bok still wants revenge and comes up with Picard's unknown son that is a product of a short romance Picard had with a woman 25 years ago. And Bok threatens Picard to kill this new found son to revenge the death of his son.

Later we learn, that the DNA of this person has been changed by Bok to trick Picard in thinking, this is actually his son. So, I wondered: Bok must have digged in Picard's romantic past to find out with whom he had sexual encounters which could resulted in offspring. Then he had to found a woman that has a son or daughter from an unknown father that would fit to the time the romantic relationship took place. I wonder how he accomplished that when not even Picard's closest friends knew about this woman in question. On top of that that woman even died several years ago. Bok surely needs some crazy tech to gather that kind of information to later trick Picard in making him believe he is indeed the father of this son.
