If the kids didn't mutiny, would Picard have been killed when the turbolift fell?

I'm not really clear on why the turbolift would fall in the first place... Is that a gravity plating thing? I guess gravity plating must work without power?

Also Picard knew it was going to fall... are we to infer he'd rather be pancaked than spend another moment with those kids?

  • when relays are blown
    when power reserves fail
    when life support is gone
    gravity plating's pull is relentless
    it will carry on

    • The way gravity plating works is not given as far as I know, Perhaps the gravity generators simply alter the number of gravitons in an area of plating. Once that value is set it remains until changed again. A sudden power spike can cause the generators to withdraw the extra gravitons, as a result sometimes certain kinds of emergency can "turn off" gravity in an area of the ship.
