Lower Decks Could Finally Tell the Riker Story Deep Space Nine Left Unfinished

In the penultimate Season 4 episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks, the crew of the USS Cerritos was sent to find The Next Generation character Nick Locarno. Along with him, there came a list of names of former Starfleet officers the Federation had lost touch with, including Beverly Crusher and Seven of Nine. While Star Trek: Picard satisfactorily caught up with them, the final name on the list is a big question mark. Lower Decks could tell the story of Thomas Riker, last seen in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine being sent off to Cardassian prison.All throughout Lower Decks Season 4, a mysterious alien vessel has been attacking non-Federation ships in the Alpha Quadrant. “The Inner Fight” reveals command believes this vessel was chasing down personnel who used to be in Starfleet but left for one reason or another. Nick Locarno, the man behind the mystery, was a cadet expelled from the Academy for covering up an operation that killed a fellow cadet. Dr. Crusher left Starfleet when she was pregnant with her son Jack, determined to keep him safe from the life of Jean-Luc Picard. Seven of Nine similarly left Starfleet to become a Fenris ranger, reuniting with Picard and Starfleet in that series. Commander William Riker showed up, too. However, Thomas Riker, his “transporter clone” hasn’t been seen in a long time either. That Starfleet assumed he was at risk for capture suggests his story may have progressed off-screen since fans last saw him in the universe.In Season 6 of Star Trek: TNG, the USS Enterprise returned to the planet Nervala IV after the USS Potemkin narrowly evacuated the surface. There is an anomaly that prevents transporter access save for a trio of “windows” every eight years. When they returned, they found Thomas Riker, a clone of Will Riker who didn’t know his duplicate made his escape. The two Rikers didn’t get along well, prompting Thomas to take a post on the USS Ghandi.Synthehol: Star Trek’s Sci-Fi Take on Alcohol, Explained
