Jack Crusher's Holographic Recording
Wesley Crusher activates this pre-recorded hologram inside the holodeck's dim confines. It projects Jack Crusher as a young lieutenant in Starfleet uniform, his face earnest and voice steady as he addresses his newborn son. Jack confesses his fears of fatherhood, affirms his Starfleet devotion, and outlines the Crusher family legacy. The projection holds Wesley's gaze until the message ends, then dissolves into darkness, leaving him alone with its echoes.
