I think this is a rare case where “it was all a dream” is fine
Q has made little pocket realities before that don't seem to affect the rest of the universe.
I just want to see how happy and relaxed Ensign Picard is. No critical decisions to make. Able to make friends among the crew without his rank getting in the way.
We get to see Captain Picard in Ensign Picard's body, but we never get to see the slacker who has big dreams but doesn't bother to push himself.
Makes me think of the plot from The Office when Michael had a telemarketing job and seemed so much happier when he was one of the underlings instead of the guy at the top.
I've been in that position before. From manager to agent, and back to manager.
It was a blast, I had so much fun.
It got boring pretty quick though.
This is legit horror
It reads like a Chief O’Brien at Work strip. Except he wouldn’t say “hey what the fuck” because he would just be so sad he couldn’t speak.
Holy shit, was this a real episode? Anyone got the Season Episode and Title handy? I know at least a few of you nerds do

Ebenezer Scrooge was the true Multiverse of Madness.
Well, poor guy/girl is probably from a reality where Kurt Russell did play the lead in Vanilla Sky and is now having an identity crisis.
All other people are NPCs from the perspective of one person. That's what "non-player character" means.
You're the player in your own mind, aren't you? That makes the rest of us NPCs.
I just don't see how someone else's perspective of my autonomy should cause such a crisis in me.
I mean a cursory glance at your own life ought to show you that you do in fact have a life outside of the experiences of some arbitrary person. If you were told you are an NPC, does your lifetime of personal experiences simply vanish?
Even if you were shown proof that you're a simulation, can you really just let go of your entire existence like that?
I think denial would be a far more common reaction than existential crisis.
On a related topic I wonder if Plague of Gripes ever finished that fence around his farm.
Still one of my favorite episodes, great to see actually humble for a change
