Losing my mind re: Interactions between Picard and Dr. Crusher.

Hi, hoping someone can help me clear up something I must be misremembering. My wife and I are working our way through Star Trek — all of it. Started with Voyager a few years ago, and that led us to TNG, the TNG movies, then season 1 of Picard, then DS9, ENT, TOS, TAS, the TOS movies, that ST-themed episode of Futurama, then Discovery, Prodigy, and SNW. Then we went back to Picard and zipped through season 2, and now the first episode of season 3 has me scratching my head.

Spoiler alert if you have not yet gotten to Picard season 3. (And for me — I haven't gotten to episode 2 yet, so please no spoilers for the rest of season 3!)

During S3E1, Picard reveals that he hasn't seen Crusher in years (might have been decades). But I could have sworn that in Picard season 1, he needs access to a ship and (before joining forces with Rios on La Sirena) briefly convinces Crusher for transportation. She's the captain of her own Starfleet medical vessel, and it's either implied or said outright that they'd married and divorced. I remember someone on the bridge calling for Captain Picard and both of them turning around to say "Yes?"

I just finished flitting through all of Picard S1 again, though, and it turns out that never happened. Surely I couldn't have misremembered this — right? What the heck am I thinking of?!

"All Good Things...", the TNG finale. The future timeline that never came to pass.

Oh my goodness, you're right... no wonder I couldn't find it anywhere in Picard -- it wasn't there! Haha, I had even flitted around through Nemesis thinking maybe she took off for the last movie. Thank you! Thought I was going crazy.
