Flaws:
* Didn't even mention a strong parallel between the kid and Worf, let alone explore it
* Picard, in Kirk mode, gives the kid back. I think just maybe some experts in trauma and psychological abuse should have looked at the situation instead of Picard coming to an epiphany based on the kid immediately before trying to murder him?
* The possibility that Jono just might be experiencing Stockholm Syndrome, or some other psychological damage, is only barely discussed.
* Jono's living relative is his grandmother, an ADMIRAL in Starfleet. Just maybe she would like to have been consulted before Picard gives her grandson back?
* Chad Allen as Jono is given extremely clunky lines to say.
* Jono playing his obnoxious music really loud. Yes, a teen acting as a teen. But several other annoying bits, like Jono acting like a caged animal when they try to remove his gloves, all the kids squealing for some reason.
* Dreadfully contrived dilemma. Why in the world can't the kid have contact with his human relatives?
