The reason for asking is that at the end of the first episode, Q comes back. He then changes their current timeline to a totalitarian 'confederation' by changing something back in 2024 in LA.
Now that the small crew have travelling back to 2024 and about to go looking for 'the watcher' one of them warns the others to avoid anything that can scan them and pick up the signatures from their ID andvaccination chips, that don't exist yet.
I mean, someone is playing games coz that isn't any kind of co-incidence.
It's just extremely bad TV written by woketards. There was some heavy handed moralizing regarding liberal views on immigration and global warming, but mostly the plot was just random shit that made no sense, almost like a Family Guy episode.
The quip about "vaccination chips", if I remember correctly, was that people of 2024 would detect them and thus realize the intrepid time traveling crew does not belong since vax chips are apparently part of our glorious Federation future, not that such things already existed by 2024. See, they were worried about messing up the timeline and wanted to be low key.
They then spent the rest of the season getting in police chases, blowing shit up, massacring hoards of Borg in plain sight, and otherwise fucking up the timeline as much as possible without giving it a second thought.
Really the only good reason to watch this show is for the RLM reviews.
Haha, thanks for the synopsis
