Currently Playing: 5 of Captain Picard’s Biggest Mistakes

Captain Picard is one of the most respected captains in Star Trek history. But even Captain Picard got it wrong sometimes. From dismissing Wesley Crusher when he was trying to save the Enterprise, to misjudging Ro Laren, allowing his trauma with the Borg to override his judgment, and following the Prime Directive even when an entire civilization faced extinction, some of Picard’s biggest mistakes came from the very qualities that usually made him a great captain.
