“The Best of Both Worlds,” the two-parter from TNG’s third and fourth seasons, centers around Picard being assimilated by the Borg – likely a major part of the upcoming show, as we’ve seen plenty of Borg imagery from the SDCC trailer.
The two-parter “Chain of Command” in TNG’s sixth season sees Picard embark on a covert mission to destroy Cardassian biological weapons, but he is ultimately captured and tortured by the Cardassians.

The set is scheduled to be released on October 15th.
