In [[2368]], he sent [[William Riker|Commander Riker]] on a mission to check up on mining operations on [[Naia VII]]. After an accident there, he beamed down to the planet himself. He told [[Geordi La Forge]] that Starfleet was cutting corners in safety to rebuild the fleet after their losses to [[the Borg]] at [[Wolf 359]]. | In [[2368]], he sent [[William Riker|Commander Riker]] on a mission to check up on mining operations on [[Naia VII]].

He was politely sceptical of the three visitors. Their discussion was interrupted by news of the attack on [[Delta IV]]. He recognised the Borg's ships around the planet and agreed with the Doctor's sentiment that they "shouldn't be here". | ||
Captain Picard then commanded for a red alert and for the Enterprise to raise shields. Their vessel had fallen under attack by the Borg/Cybermen alliance. Data was soon commanded by Picard to find cover in a nebula which he did. The Doctor soon relayed any and all knowledge of the Cybermen to Captain Picard and he at an instant distrusted him. He soon learns from Data that the Cybermen came to their universe before and the Doctor soon regained those memories. After that though, Captain Picard took the Doctor, Amy, and Rory to Guinan in Ten Forward. | Captain Picard then commanded for a red alert and for the Enterprise to raise shields.

* The brief appearance of Captain Picard in ''Syntax'' treats him as a fictional character (as do, implicitly, other references to ''[[Star Trek]]'' and ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' in ''Doctor Who'' stories). ''Assimilation²'', of course, treats him as a "real" individual; however the storyline clearly establishes that Picard exists in a parallel universe to the "Whoniverse", placing him in the same category as [[Dr. Who (Dalek movies)|Dr. Who]], the character from the [[Peter Cushing]] films who is occasionally depicted in the franchise as existing as a real person but in an alternate reality. | * The brief appearance of Captain Picard in ''Syntax'' treats him as a fictional character (as do, implicitly, other references to ''[[Star Trek]]'' and ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' in ''Doctor Who'' stories).
