tjwparso is officially my favorite Star Trek Nerd. I'd love to meet this person someday. Thanks for the great clips, I've revisited som many great episodes thanks to your inspirational and informative clips. Live long and prosper, Earthling.
@@billyfletcher6022 Glad you like the channel... Peace and long life pal 🖖
Barclay and the Nth degree. Definitely showing that integrating with machines need not be a nightmare.
Picard: has Barclay done something threatening.
Troi: he made a pass at me. A good one.
Riker: *visibly threatened*
Troi: A good one.
Riker: *less angry, more confused*
I dearly loved the follow-up where Riker subtly asks Troi if the pass "was successful or not," and she just gives him a mischievous smile in response. Excellent!
@@acolytetojippity Troi: Broccoli made a pass
Riker: *angery*
Troi: it was a good one
Riker: *calm*
@@zagnorch1336 hahahaha yes! And then at the end of the episode she hold Barclay to the walk! She didn't give him a choice.
Should've put a ring on it 💍
barclay is one of the few tng characters ive seen actually run somewhere during a red alert instead of walk
He runs a bit like Steven Seagal
if only there was a faster way to get from one part of the ship to another. a way to quickly transport, perhaps. eh, crazy talk
@@mofftarkin78 he still has a phobia of transporters, being smart doesnt stop a phobia.
@@artycharr Also... i think, beaming from one place to another within the ship was considered as too dangerous.
@@mofftarkin78 Site to site transports are not particularly safe at the best of times for one person. You wanna do it for a crew of 600?
Do you want Tuvixes? Because That's How You Get Tuvixes.
"Locking a man up for being too smart."
Yup, Geordi called it what it was.
@Leo Peridot Well, that's not how it ended here.
@Leo Peridot A mob is a lot more than 7 people.
Troi: He made a pass at me. A good one.
Crusher: Awesome!
Riker: Hmm, I should ask him for advice.
Geordi: "I'd hardly consider that a threat"
Are you kidding? These days that's paramount to assault.
Howling Mad Murdoch's got game!
Im sensing Im falling in love with him
@@Phatnaru0002 And even before today wokeness, Riker probably considered it a threat.
@@Phatnaru0002 *sigh*, no it doesn't.
In case you're wondering, the pass Barclay makes at Troi is:
Barclay: "Wouldn't you want to take a walk with me through the arboretum, the zalanias should be in bloom":
Troi: "Reg, as your former Counselor, I don't think that it would be appropriate"
Barclay: "I don't need a Counselor, I need the company of a charming, intelligent woman.."
Troi: "Good night, Mr. Barclay"
At the end of the episode, he does get that date though!
Bar'clay...mah man. 😏
Because Troi is the ship hoe.
A successful pass then
I appreciate the public service you just performed for anyone who's still a virgin (both socially and physically) by virtue of watching Star Trek all their life.
Picard: Has Barclay done something threatening.
Troi: Well, he did make a pass at me. A good one.
Riker: *Confused Pikachu face*
Here, lemme fix that last line:
The entire Enterprise crew: Confused Pikachu face
Ah, much better!
You're welcome, by the way.
Geordi and Riker's reaction was priceless.
@@glennheth3472 Yes. Riker was more like "He did.. WHAT?! Alright, THAT is a threat!" :D
Picard: Has Barclay done something threatening.
Troi: Well, he did make a pass at me. A good one.
Picard: Stop wastin' my time counselor.
Computer: "There is no such device on file."
Barkley: "No problem. Here's how you build it!"
At this point, Barkley surpassed even Montgomery Scott as the greatest engineer in Starfleet history!
Easy if you possess super intelligence!!
Super Barclay would make Scotty feel old and inadequate!
@@nicholasmaude6906 Normal Barclay would be familiar with Scotty's work and have been starstruck at meeting him (like he was with Cochrain). Relics would have been so much better with him in it.
And Schultz added just a tiny touch of frustration in his voice.
Gods, can you imagine what Scotty could have done with a holodeck?
Fun fact: The laser interface was a practical effect; they were actually shooting lasers at the head of Dwight Schultz.
Maybe they were trying to treat Dwight Schultz's baldness? Um, they use lasers for that, right?
Now I'm imagining Patrick Stewart, Robert Picardo, and Ethan Phillips waiting in line to get their treatments when all of a sudden in walks... William Shatner? Oh, my!
Better than shooting phasers at him
@@LordTalax They only fire phasers at Will.
It shows.
Perhaps they should have actually used CGI.
@@klaxoncow why
The brain laser interface was possibly THE coolest device they ever came up with on any Star Trek series! 🖖😀
It looks like something out of an 80s night-club😀.
@@nicholasmaude6906 'Ey, Barclay! Who's a guy gotta blow to get some bottle service over heah?!
And this device is now being developed by Neuralink well over 30 years later.
@@diophantine1598 not being developed by neuralink, already been in use for about a decade now
@@lGODofLAGl Not to the point to run a portion of your consciousness in a computer yet. This is Neuralink’s goal though. To increase intelligence through BCI such that humans will be capable of competing with AI.
Barclay's level of confidence, to the point of slightly annoyed is just perfect, its much more fun to watch than when he is sheepish and scared and studdering all the time... this is one of my favorite episodes and the best barclay ep imho
yeah I also like how they kept the character even into voyager, he was the one trying to help them get home and became obsessed.
*Argus Array:* "i gunna boom"
*Barclay:* "This big brain time..."
I want to see Markiplier in a Star Trek show guest appearing as an engineer.
@@heatherfeather7199 Eh, it'll probably happen eventually. Probably after the Iron Lung film, whenever that comes out.
"No problem. Here's how to build the neuro interface... just randomly fire laser beams at my head from a device that looks overly complicated. That should do it."
HEY! It's a space laser.
Barclay loved it when a plan came together.
@@kavoshkhoshbin1432 It was invented by the noted Cambridge physicist Dr. Parsons. Therefore, the space laser was called "the Alan Parsons Project."
@@dashcroft1892 Cut the jibber-jabber!
That's awesome, funny guy
When Barclay is rushing to the holodeck, I imagine him running to get the rest of the A-Team to help.
"Here's how you build one, and BA will help you."
I wonder what BA would think about space travel, though. Would he get in a space ship?! xD
@@Charles_Bro-son Just tell him that it's a ship, not a plane. Also, don't let him go near a window.
I pity the fool who don't know how to build a brain interface!
@theprogram863 Set phasers to stun... given the beast Mr. T was in the 80s, one hit might not suffice xD
Based Barclay.
Literally becoming the computer in order to save the array.
It's not so much the ultimate sacrifice as it is the nerdiest sacrifice.
3:05 Barclay asks for a work station chair. Result? The computer gives him the most bad ass geek throne of all time
He made a pass so good years later Troi cuts a vacation with Riker to help him contact Voyager. That's one hell of a pass. LOL 😂
I wish that it hadn’t cut to the bridge when Barclay said, “Here’s how you build it.”
I wanted to hear how to build a neural scan interface.
You know the fortnite sysops won't let you play online anymore if you do THAT?
funniest part is he had 10 mins to tell he computer how to do it.
@@cranbers Probably not a complicated device. Well, Complicated but not *complicated*. It's most likely 96% similar to a standard interface, but uses that laser based interchange to read your neuron's rather than use a keyboard or terminal. What's REALLY fun to note is that's actually how the Universe Class Starship the federation was supposed to be controlled, except it's like that in every area of the ship.
Yes but it’s far more interesting if we never know how he does it and it becomes a noodle incident.
I absolutely LOVE all the facial expression/ reactions of these scenes!
McFadden's smile when Troi mentions the "pass",
Sirtis' knowing smirk when Riker asks about the effectiveness of the Pass, (and McFadden again)
even Shultz's annoyed eye roll when the computer doesn't know how to construct a neural scan interface!
All SO good! Good, entertaining acting all around!
Crusher is also a romantic with a good sense of humor so it perfectly fits. Deanna always gets a kick out of trolling Will. You gotta love those moments where you're reminded these people are really good friends.
What's extra amusing is how Riker looks back into the ready room seeking the captain's support, but Picard is already nose-deep into reports and no longer has time for Riker.
I didn't know Barclay could play the violin.
"Not until last night"
I didn't know Barclay could play the Doctor--Counselor triangle.
"Not until last night'
This episode shows just how good an actor William Dwight Schultz is! :D
Barclay was by far the best-acted character on the show! Patrick Stewart may have been more fine artsy but Barclay was a tougher and realer character to portray, without any easy accolades.
Finally! Someone who actually runs in an emergency!
Got his practice from The A-Team
Riker.exe has stopped responding.
that neruo interface is the most awesome sci fi device i've ever seen.
Like the Riddler in 'BATMAN FOREVER' - James D. Watkins, artistic director of PHOENIX PRODUCTIONS.
Yes the pass thing is funny, Riker went in his Quarters after and had some beans.
Dianna: He made a pass at me. A good one.
LeForge: I wouldn't call that a threat.
Riker: Well I do.
This episode is a reimagining of the short story "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes. Great short story and a great episode.
yup
with pretty much the same sad ending
It's called Flowers for Charlie and it's clearly an episode of Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, duh.
Imagine making a pass at one of your co-workers, a proper pass, and it not being the end of the world for you.
One of my favorite episodes.... they should have done more with these....Cytherians....
Barclay is now the riddler from batman forever
Or The Riddler from Batman Forever.
@@aggressiveattitudeera887 that's exactly what I meant sorry for that
@@aggressiveattitudeera887 passive aggressive attitude era.
@@patrickbowers8359 NP.✌
B.A. Barracus: "What's crazy fool doin'! He's got his head all tied up in the ship now!"
Broccoli 🥦 is the computer 🖥
I liked the old Mr. Broccoli better. At least HE was human. Now he's just a show-off. Plz change him back to his old insecure self!
It would really suck to get to that level and then come back down. Trying to think like that is probably like the beginning stages of Alzheimer’s or Dementia, you know something is wrong, you know you’re not at the same level you’ve been at, but you can’t put your finger on it.
Even as a kid, I felt Barclay's "upgrade" was like the opposite of Lt. Uhura's memory wipe by the _Nomad_ probe (sadly, Miss Nichols suffers from dementia in real life). Both got 'retrained' by alien technology, only to re-educate or in his case re-adapt by their own brainpower. Reg's own genius assisted _Voyager_ , but I think Troi helped his confidence not to think he's "senile" after this episode.
i just saw the Sarek clip earlier too
You could read Flowers for Algernon
This was one of the best episodes of TNG !! One of my all time favorites !
That's an interesting choice of a tracking shot, panning across the others in the room before bringing La Forge into view right as he delivers his line.
Love how they introduce the A-team theme snare patterns
3:15 I love how Dwight delivers this line!
Barclay: Tie both consoles into the Enterprise computer core utilizing a Neural Scan Interface!
Computer: There is no such device file.
Barclay: No problem. Here's how you build it.
And BA will help you.
2:23 and 2:55 The only character that can solve the crisis at hand on the Enterprise ... is runnung?!? Damn, this must be serious.
I was thinking the same thing. They so rarely ran anywhere.
This was such a great episode lol
All Barclay episodes are like someone's bad fanfiction. *I love them.*
Once you have advanced intelligence you learn how to run when the situation demands it!
Why did the scene where Riker asked if he was successful seem ad-libbed? Cos it's so perfectly hilarious it's almost like an intake!!! :P
LMFAO
my all time favourite episode of star trek
Mine too. Superb acting on the part of Dwight Schultz. To go from clumsy and inept socially to casually charming- the way he acknowledged the response to his "acting" role inside the episode with a confident nod as he left the room- was truly expert.
Beverley is amused as hell at Barclay making a pass
She probably wants some of the B(arclay)DE
I love it when a plan comes together.
One of my favorite episodes.
Riker: "I didn't know Barclay played the violin?"
*Starts planning jam session*
Barkley 9000 was born
This always has been one of my favorite scenes in this entire series. Just love it every time! 😂😂
This is some of the best acting by Marina Sirtis and the scene is so well written. The way you can tell she's unsure if she should mention Barclay's pass at her. The way she shifts her eyes knowing she's about to reveal something that perhaps she should keep private so she's struggling internally a bit. And of course the way she smirks at Riker and says nothing when he asks if it worked ... Showing how women are always 2 levels above men in this department.
Alpha numeric console for the left hand and an iconic display for the right hand? Barclay hacked his own brain.
"My boy's *WICKED SMAHT* !"
I'm not entirely sure why, but "No problem, here's how you build one." Is my all-time favorite TNG line. It even beats, "Sir I protest. I am not a merry man!"
It could just be an allergic reaction to beans.
Barcley explained to the Enterprise's computer how to build an interface let him plug directly into the computer, and this just never comes up again in Star Trek? Okay, then!
Probably only worked due to how enhanced his brain was.
@@JnEricsonx true he said he can’t remember how he did it
I know! That's a SERIOUS security, safety and life BREACH on that Enterprise. - James D. Watkins, artistic director of PHOENIX PRODUCTIONS.
Even if they erase the info from Barclays brain when you take the computer would have it stored
When she says "Helm not responding", the sweating in the bridge is audible.
Deanna wants a piece of howling mad Murdock 🤣
Lesson in building a power plant: do not place reactors within meltdown / explosion distance from each other. Even at Chernobyl the reactors were housed in differant buildings so when #4 exploded the other 3 kept running
I love to see how he would use them consoles, they're miles away 🤣
Fusion reactors, should we ever succeed in creating one, would not fall into a chain reaction. Helium 3 would not cool the reaction, it would increase it. I'm nitpicking, I know. But it kills me the writers didn't come up with better reasons something is going to blow up.
Could Helium 3 be used as a coolant outside of the reaction chamber though?
@@3Rayfire, probably. But it would not do any better a job of cooling a reactor, fusion or fission, than He4.
He3 is considered to be the best fuel for a fusion reactor, because it is so ready to absorb an additional neutron, become He4 and release energy in the process. So my guess is the writers heard about He3, and decided it would sound all futuristic and techy to those who don't know any better. Yes, I loved STNG, but I did catch things like this all the time.
Fair but maybe its fission? (Idk much about the subject but it couldve been a misspoken word or typo in the script, as fusion is a more common word despite fission existing.)
@@MrJustyoutubing , no, it's the writers. They pick out something that sounds all techy, which they don't really understand, counting on the audience to know even less. Case in point. Geordi is trapped on a planet with an injured Romulan. Because of magnetic storms all over the planet, the sensors on the Enterprise can't find him to beam him up. Wesley Crusher comes up with the brilliant idea of sending down a probe to the surface that is emitting a "tachyon" beam, which Geordi's visor should be able to pick up. Geordi walks to the probe and can then be picked up.
Brilliant, except that tachyons don't exist. They were a hypothetical particle that a scientist imagined, to explore what the world would look like on the other side of the speed of light. In our world, nothing can travel faster than light, but there is nothing stopping a particle already travelling faster than light from existing. OK, cleaver. But we can't detect any such thing even if such a world does exist. The writes thru it in this episode because it sounds cool.
@@donaldbadowski290 i get you, just putting out a possibility. Its equally likely youre right, if not more. Just thought theyd have at least base knowledge, like the difference between fusing and fission. Or maybe they did know and chose fusion because it requires tech we cant achieve in our time. I like the idea of using theoreticals and conjecture though, cause it does make you think at least for a second ig. Even if theyre talkin out their ass
4:29 BROCCOLI?! 🥦 🥦 🤣🤣😅
0:42 "Well, he did make a pass at me last night"
Riker: "Red alert"
3:23 - the tone of this line reminded me of how Jordan Peterson speaks...
Does anyone find it ironic that Dwight Shultz played a minor recurring role on this show when he actually was a better known actor than any of the main actors when the series launched?
Well they already had Whoopi. In fact she got him on the show.
@@potsdam28 Credit Levar Burton then, since he helped get Whoopi on the show.
@@joelellis7035 He may have arranged a meeting, but Whoopi wanted to get on. Apparently, Uhura was the first black character on a show set in the future and Whoopi wanted to be a part of the show that did that.
Riker's line this entire episode: Barkley? Barkley?
Also, Riker: what?
Riker: "You said he made a pass at you, but you failed to mention whether he was successful or not."
Troi: 😏
Riker: 😳
Crusher: 😗
What an amazing episode - and it gave Dwight Schultz a chance to display this wider-than-expected dramatic range.
The best scifi ever. Holodeck is not just simulation. It created a match of Data in Moriarty who became real matter from pure energy. It enhances real aspects of the physical world.
2:20 me literally whenever trying to use a computer at my work to help someone.
Man, Barclay gets so smart in this episode.
I mean, he actually *runs* to where he needs to be when it's urgent instead of speed walking, such genius.
Truly he is the Albert Einstein of the 24th century.
He actually didn't run, but jog. I think he was smart enough to be able to predict quite accurately how much time he would need and that it was not necessary for him to lose his style. 😁
@@Dowlphin He probably knew the limits of his endurance and went as fast as he could without exhausting himself, that's still better than the security team that just walks to their destination in the middle of their ship being boarded.
That show had more imagination than any show I can think of today.
1:37 .. NOT a tight door closure xD that god damn ENTERPRISE !
Barclay: Literally saves all their lives AND the Array
Command crew: 👺
4:22 was Picard’s “hey siri” moment.
Still remains human enough to say 'it's me' rather than 'it is I.'
Hmm nice software security, not even asking for a security code before plugging the program into the main computer :D
It was just the taskmanager priority overloaded, a few seconds more and the consoles had popped up "Barclay 2.0 not responding, do you want to wait or kill process"
I'd hope the computer allows console access based on your admin privileges without the need to retype passwords all the time when saving the ship ;-)
Riker’s sausage was shrivelling up at the prospect of Broccoli wrecking the councillor.
Knowing what we know now about the speed and memory capacity of the human brain, the sheer fact he was abile to image his brain and store it on the storyboard mainframe of the ship shows a testimate to the hardware and memory capacity of the Enterprise D. My belief is that its technology prowess is vastly understated.
I would nominate this as the best episode of the entire TNG Series.
One of... I like many from seasons 6 & 7 more myself
0:40 you can tell this show was made in the 80s and 90s. Nowadays that would be considered a threatening gesture and he would have been removed from his duties and thrown in the brig.
He also would have been thrown out in space, cancelled on their social media platform, he would have been called a predator, etc. - James D. Watkins, artistic director of PHOENIX PRODUCTIONS.
That feeling of complete control and clarity usually only found after my third double espresso! Not as advanced and flashy as that chair but certainly available today.
Riker: Barclay said he made a pass at you, you didn't say if he was successful or not.
Troi: *smiles*
Riker: this motherfu....
Here's Limitless Barclar pioneering the Neurosynaptic Interface 40 or 50 years before Future Janeway's EMH does in Endgame.
Mad Man Murdoch of Action, time to get him out of The V.A. again a plan is Coming together
And suddenly Humans look like Pakleds - "He is smart".
I subscribed only because of the unique way you presented the request. Great idea and well executed.
Barclay get impatient with the stupid computer so he goes Batman Forever on it!
0:40 Troi coming in clutch with tea hotter than the Captain's Earl Grey.
A neural interface and a cure for baldness in one.
I don't usually subscribe to channels which promote themselves before the beginning of the video content, but using Captain Picard's voice..., you got a new sub!
the end of that staff meeting still cracks me up
no problem here ,s how you build it so well done
When Star Trek casually went super cyberpunk for an episode
Barclay got smart by eating lots of beans.
Troi: He made a pass at me...a good one.
Crusher: Nice!
This was a cool moment to see for the first time.
Dwight schultz was in The A-Team Season 1 to Season 5
"No problem, here is how you build it!" :p
and this is why you should never mix Broccoli with Beans
Well, what did you expect when you hired a guy whose last alias was "Howlin' Mad Murdock"?
