Are there two subjects in this sentence?
They are not the ones we have in mind.
Are they and we both subjects in this sentence?
Is they the subject of the sentence?
Am I confused because the relative pronoun that has been omitted?
If it were not omitted, 'that we have in mind' would be the dependent clause, and therefore, we would be the subject of the dependent clause and they is the subject of the independent clause.
Am I on the right track here?
Thanks.

Thanks!
Yes, I understand it is the subject of the subordinate clause regardless of the word that being omitted or not.
Thanks for the confirmation that I understood it.
Could you please answer my question on pronoun case (under a different post). They are questions I am desperate to know the answer to, and I'm sure you are more than capable!
