Jack suffered from terrifying visions and hearing voices as a child, but it was Beverly who ultimately determined that her son was born with organic Borg DNA he inherited from Jean-Luc from his time as Locutus of Borg.
Little did he realize the nightmarish visions that plagued him since childhood were derived from organic Borg DNA Jack inherited from his father, who was assimilated and turned into Locutus of Borg in Star Trek: The Next Generation's classic "The Best of Both Worlds."
One of the most popular and evidence-backed theories about Jack Crusher is that Picard's biological material was altered by his Borg experience, leading to his conceiving a baby with latent Borg-like abilities.
Jack's auditory prowess allows him to eavesdrop on the innermost thoughts of his fellow crew mates, while his uncanny control over their minds and bodies turns him into a puppeteer, manipulating them like marionettes during clashes against the formidable Changelings.
Ensign Jack Crusher is a 25th century Human Federation Starfleet officer assigned to the USS Enterprise-G. He is the son of Admirals Beverly Crusher and Jean-Luc Picard.
Crusher and Captain Picard continued throughout the non-canonical Star Trek: The Next Generation Pocket Books series. Beverly and Jean-Luc have married, but still serve together on the Enterprise-E. They have a son named René Jacques Robert Francois Picard, named after Picard's older brother (Robert) and nephew (René).
As crew members beamed on and off their ships, the computers recognized this new genetic code as "common biology" and integrated it into the DNA of every officer in the fleet. The Changelings wanted Jack because of they needed his Borg-altered DNA, though they later ended up acquiring this from Picard's body.
There were plenty of theories about why Jack could do these strange things. The red eyes and psychic powers seemed to indicate Deep Space Nine's Pah-Wraiths, especially given the Changeling connection.
Both Jack Crusher, the son of Admiral Jean-Luc Picard and Dr. Beverly Crusher, and Sidney La Forge, the daughter of Commodore Geordi La Forge, have the weight of the galaxy on their shoulders living in the shadow of their legendary parents.
But Irumodic Syndrome doesn't explain how Jack Crusher can do other things we've seen him do. He's been able to suddenly defend himself on an instinctive level from Changeling attackers, killing four of them in seconds. He can telepathically communicate with others, see through their eyes and control their actions.
The most likely reason for Wesley's absence is that, in writing these final episodes, the decision was made to focus on the impact of Jack Crusher's existence on Jean-Luc. This is the final chapter of Jean-Luc Picard's story, so the focus on his legacy and his own next generation makes sense.
Borg shields are ineffective protection against projectile or melee weapons, and several have been defeated in this way, or through hand-to-hand combat.
Jack suffered from terrifying visions and hearing voices as a child, but it was Beverly who ultimately determined that her son was born with organic Borg DNA he inherited from Jean-Luc from his time as Locutus of Borg.
The penultimate episode of Picard season 3 revealed that the Borg had implanted organic technology into Picard, who then passed it along to his son when he conceived Jack, inadvertently turning his progeny into a Borg transmitter.
Jack is indeed the biological son of Jean-Luc Picard and Dr. Beverly Crusher, but as much as he wanted to deny it, the young Crusher is also the son of Locutus and the Borg Queen, who pondered Latin names for Jack like Regenerati (Rebirth) or Puer Dei (Child of God) before she chose to name him Vox.
Both Crusher boys are children of cosmic destiny: Wesley became a Traveler who defies space and time while Jack was born with organic Borg DNA that turned him into Vox of Borg, a transmitter that briefly assimilated Starfleet. And, when it comes to Starfleet, Jack's achievement bettered his big brother Wesley.
Patrick Stewart's Jean-Luc Picard got quite the shocker in the second episode of Star Trek: Picard's third and final season: Ed Speleers' Jack Crusher, son of his former flame Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden), is also his child.
One leading theory is that Jack is possessed by the Pah Wraiths, non-corporeal beings and enemies of the Bajoran Prophets from “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.” Since the Changelings were also introduced in “Deep Space Nine,” the two species may have some connection.
Unsuccessful with these attempts, and having learned that he had a biological offspring, they've turned their attention to Jack. The Changelings want to use Jack to lure the Borg and harness them in their efforts to destroy the Federation.
After his assimilation in the Star Trek: The Next Generation two-part episode, "The Best of Both Worlds," the Borg created an abnormality in Picard's parietal lobe. The Changelings and Borg devised a plot to steal Picard's human body and use his Borg DNA to assimilate Starfleet.
Jack Crusher is just a hard-looking (but handsome) 23-year-old. Living with your mom full-time and running rescue missions apparently ages you prematurely. Episode 4 confirms Jack's age when Picard asks him if he's about 23 or 24 years old. This ends up being a major plot point towards the end of the season.
You are such a tool. Wesley crusher was the son of Dr. Beverly crusher. His father was jack crusher Captain Picard was only a close friend of the family.
Jack Crusher died in an accident aboard the Stargazer in 2353. Picard personally returned Jack's body to Beverly and her young son, Wesley Crusher (Wil Wheaton). Jack's death haunted Picard for years and stands as one of the lowest moments in his Starfleet career.
Picard then beams to Bok's ship via the Ferengi's own subspace transporter, where he confronts Bok and three other Ferengi and reveals that Dr. Crusher has discovered that Jason Vigo is not, in fact, Picard's son.
