The Greatest Generation

When a Starfleet propulsion expert comes aboard with an alien assistant, Commander Riker isn’t buying any of their bullshit. But after his experiment goes wrong and the Entrepreneur is stranded far from home, the very chill Traveller takes an interest in Wesley and helps bring the ship back safely. How is the piper paid? Does a starship use car math or boat math? Who is the Rudy of this story? It’s the episode with a little bit of terror mixed into the benign.

When the Entrepreneur chases a ship that’s really dragin’ a wagon, nobody thinks to try hailing before acts of violence are attempted. But when Riker expresses a little too much enthusiasm for the Ferengi way of life, he gets banished to the engine room. What’s on the business end of a ball-kicking machine? How could Ben put Adam into cardiac arrest? How do you cover up literally any editing mistake? It’s the episode with shades of yellow.

When Ligon II has a rare vaccine and the Federation needs it bad, Picard welcomes Luton aboard only for him to abduct Lt. Yar with a side hug. But after she’s challenged to a dual by the leader’s first wife, her success in combat topples his house of cards. Is there an aspect of Ligonian culture that we kind of agree with? Which uncle-related landmine did we not manage to avoid? What’s the opposite of Alien vs Predator? It’s the episode that’s willing to defend itself.

When something goes terribly wrong on the SS Tsiolkovsky, an away team beams over and brings a lot of sweaty drunkeness back aboard. But after Wesley takes control of the ship and a nearby star explodes, Dr. Crusher works up a cure and Riker cleans up the party. Which office supply can fix a boat neck? Where should stupid space questions be directed? What’s the best thermostat setting for an orgy? It’s the episode with a big helping of reheated TOS lasagna.

When Captain Picard sets off on the D’s maiden voyage, his mission to open trade negotiations with the Bandi gets interrupted by the Q. But after Commander Riker realizes that Farpoint Station is too good to be true, Counselor Troi breaks out the thesaurus to help solve the crew’s first space mystery. Who is not at all prepared for this assignment? Which movie stills were on the mood board for the post-atomic horror? What exactly is wrong with the Lego D model? It’s the episode that hasn’t exactly figured things out yet.
