Tha said, why the hell does this random changling have the exact same bucket design as Odo? Wasn't that just a random bucket he got from the Cardassian or Bajorans that found and took care of him early on? It's not like all changlings have the same buckets as some cultural thing unless it was found with him like Superman's costume.

Made this exact comment to my wife.

1. WTF? Regular founders don't even use buckets.
2. The bucket was bajoran, odo had it prior to ever meeting the federation.
3. Pretty dope easter egg, but as much of this season so far, is really just a loosely veiled easter egg like punch to the face of our nostalgia in hopes we will ignore the dumbness of other moments.

I still think Riker is a shapeshifter. There's no explanation for how they chose the titan outside of Riker being in on the other team.

Also I was waiting for picard to spin them around the last asteroid a la booby trap.
