Why not a long distance relationship?
Darren is in my mind the best love interest that Picard has had (it's not even close) and it saddens me that this love was just tossed into the wind to die.
The shared passion for music, love of tasteless bland hot water, a strong will ---- it's just perfect! But NO, they cannot continue the relationship and instead Picard gets to experience the friend zone sexual frustration long game with Crusher.
To the episodes credit it does provide a strong argument against them continuing a relationship onboard the enterprise ---- Picard's fear that he will never enjoy music again if something should happen to here.
The chemistry really works for me here in this episode and it feels real.
It my star trek alternate universe they are together and exploring ancient ruins and making out with one another after playing classic music in historical sites.
I really like this episode.
