I wonder if they are going to try and link Nemesis and the final TNG episode together in this season.
For example Data coming back and becoming a professor
Picards degenerative neural disease which might be what gets hinted at in the second episode where the doctor hints that Picard has a very limited time left, which doesn't surprise Picard at all.
The reason Picard doesn't want to drag the TNG crew in is because he knows he will need them for his final trip to fix the time hole.

I have no idea if this is what they are actually building to but it would be interesting.
