This is taken from my Star Trek The Next Generation Moments project that I'm working on. As happened with the TV series, which had a makeover in their Third Season, I have also edited the info banner to make it easier to read.
The project will show the best of STNG in a series of memorable moments from each episode. My personal favourites are longer but I still have some work to do on it, see what you think.
But please watch it from my STNG Moments Playlist, that way you can see each episode as they are ment to be seen. • Star Trek Moments TNG ...
Episode :66 Aliens kidnap Picard and replace him with a duplicate, who sends the Enterprise to a pulsar. Meanwhile, the real Picard and three other captives try to escape from their prison.
"OH MY GOD WORF WHY DID YOU KILL THEM"
"You made the throat slashing gesture, I thought that meant kill"
this one. this is good
I actually read that in Picard and Worf's voice, ha ha!
😂😂😂😂
That would have been awesome.
Finger to the throat means death.
I just love the way Picard says, "Because I have decided to conduct an experiment of my own." It's almost chilling.
The very first time I saw this episode and I heard him sat that, no joke, my spine chilled in a cold snap. Hearing the voice of reason and logic sound so cold and cruel in a heartbeat was too much for me that first time.
Imagine if the terrain empire had them. They were lucky to be in the federation universe.
Sisko 100
first time I heard him say it my throbbing cock started spraying semen in every direction and then I soiled myself.
I love Picard's disgusted quip of "Now, get off my ship!" I could have seen him say "Now piss off!"
Have a Gordon Ramsey moment.
When captain Picard became the Doctor, the valyard and the dalek in 1 go. Badass 😁😎😱😏🔥
"Imprisonment is an injury regardless of how you justify it." Truer words have never been spoken.
really? it's called loss of freedom. not a new concept.
Yeah this is not a valid argument at all. It employs two logical fallacies and incomplete premises.
'Shut up wesley'
"My gold fish don't look injured to me."
@@XX-sp3tt How big is it?
"Imprisonment is an injury regardless of how you justify it." Decades later this show still has so much to teach.
This should be a slogan for prison abolitionism.
@@ArticBlueFox96 Abolishing prisons? Are you serious? What are you going to do with criminals? You know the Federation has prisons, too, right?
@@eyescreamcakein better societies you don't have prisons you have rehabilitation centres.
America's system is the worse in the world. Because the prison system and modern police services was created right after the abolition of slavery, to replace it, but also to continue the evils in a different framework.
My 3 year old said something similar to me during his time out.
@@eingoluq lol if you think America's system is the worst in the world you're an idiot. There are 195 countries in the world. Go through each of them and learn about their criminal justice systems and come back to me.
The funny thing is, if they had respected Picard's authority and asked him, perhaps in private to avoid a placebo effect, he might have agreed, and Riker could have been the test subject.
But I do like how Picard heard them talking about testing morality, and said, "Oh fuck no, I've seen how you test authority, no way are you going to test morality."
Wesley: ". . .It's good to have you back sir."
Picard: "Shut up Wesley."
Ha ha! And Data's smirk at Wesley was funny as well, as if to say "oooh, look at you, captain's pet!"
Isn't that getting a little old?
Ha!
@@retromillenium
No.
@@retromillenium yes
That was the Federation's first contact with the Gluteans of planet Squat Thrust.
seriously those were some BUNS
They must work out
Do they poop?
I got a soft spot for this one. It seems like it was one of the moments where TNG kind of ribbed TOS. There were always these omnipotent beings just basically seizing the old crew, putting them through hell, and then making it all some science experiment on the nature of humanity at the end. I like how at the end Picard turned the tables on the aliens for once.
I suppose you never saw the end of, "Plato's Stepchildren?"
"No being is so important that he can usurp the rights of another."
Jean-Luc Picard
The vegetarian and vegan battle cry!
@@JixieDyeAuthor 😆😂🤣
The lessons that star trek teaches are in direct conflict with the police state we live in today.
@@JixieDyeAuthor plants don't have feelings? Plants aren't living beings? Prove it.
@@zoesdada8923 I can't. But I mean that's the thing, we know animals have feelings but we don't know plants do. Perhaps one day we will but until we do I guess we have to eat something. But some of us would like to reduce the amount of pain and suffering in the world. Anyway I wasn't starting an argument, I was making a joke. The argument was started by you.
Just because Picard was less likely to punch somebody than Kirk was no reason to assume that messing with him was a good idea.
Picard was a lot more likely to humiliate you in front of your superiors than Kirk was
If you want a captain as a friend, Archer is your guy.
Data: "Sir, those weapons are phasers set to kill."
Picard: "Thanks Mr. Data, I *know* the sound."
In Episode 3 he Airburst a salvo of Photon Torpedoes just to send a message. And only the overlapping advise of his Senior crew resulted in him not sending down a landing party.
I admit I also thought Picard was a Pacifist. But in retrospect, that was a mistaken asumption.
Kirk would punch you with a fist, Picard will punch you with his intelligence. Then he will have Data kick your ass.
@@christopherg2347 As Roosevelt put it... ' Speak softly and carry a big stick'
This episode was also a great testimony to Riker's leadership. Riker knew the captain wasn't acting in the best decision for the crew. So he took action, and it shows to the loyalty and trust that Riker has built that the crew didn't hesitate to follow his orders.
“Mr. Crusher, set course to rendezvous with the hood. I need to pick up some chronic after that one.”
Just want to say that those alien costumes are quite cool. Would love to see someone cosplay them, with or without the prosthetics.
The alien costumes are nicely form fitting. And the aliens are very well built. Ys, it would be hot to see some cosplay in these costumes.
@@BaileySEA hot?
I’ve never seen aliens in the Star Trek Universe with such sweet behinds.
These Stuntmen didn't skip Glute Day😂nice Seahorse Heads haha
I don't think anyone in Star Fleet has seen that kind of cake in the Alpha Quadrant. @@ozymandias1758
Lol.
Captain Picard: “I was able to give my crew orders with a single look. Verbal language isn’t necessary.”
Aliens: “We were able to transport away in much the same way”
I Always Loved How Hypocritical the Aliens are here that in their minds its ok to do something to others that they can't stand being inflicted on themselves
You know, I really miss Trek episodes like this. Exploring concepts, ideas, idelologies. Ever since Deep Space Nine, there have been so many overarching war arcs. They can be interesting, but as series have gone on, it's all that that Trek has become...war with the dominion, the borg, romulans, etc. Voyager still had some exploratory episodes, but it ended there, and I think TNG did the best non action episodes..too bad that has gone by the waysdie.
The keyword In your statement is exploring. virtually every season of Star Trek minus DS9 mainly focuses on exploration. DS9 focuses not on Boldly going, but boldly staying.
@@Degamer422 They painted themselves into a corner when the decided to try something different and have a Trek show from a space station as opposed to roving adventures in a starship. It can be done, but it's harder. That's why they made the defiant, to be able to rove about more. Bablyon 5 was a station based sci fi, with lots of adventures on the station as well, but you see how they had adventures outside of the station from the start. Shows like that, I think you want a balance between adventures on the station and outside of it.
@@Degamer422 and yes, less exporing overall of ideas, concepts before. It's disappointing to see shows not willing to explore social issues, etc. as much anymore. Voyager tended to do more moral exploring, though not quite as much as next gen. I feel they fell somewhere in the middle with that.
The problem was losing Star Trek's creator. Gene Roddenberry never wanted another space war show. His vision if the future was one of hope; where words could end a fight instead of senseless killing. Sadly when he died those left in charge took everything he did and destroyed it. Even the DS9 episode 'Jem'hadar' was a clear declaration that the Trek we loved was being destroyed. The only thing that stopped them from using the Enterprise instead of the Odyssey was the severe backlash they would have suffered.
Awesome Robert.
Love how Worf is thinking ‘ I can adjust the shield smaller , and smaller , and smaller ‘ nono that’s … wrong ? Damnit 🤣
So if at 02:00, what if Worf misinterpreted the Captain's hand gesture, and executed them both ??? :-O
Then he would have fired on the shield holding them, phaser fire for everyone on the because it ricochet, and those two aliens would have been stuck in there until other crew members finding all the dead bodies, thinking Picard ordered to trap them before they all got kills by Worf's phaser fire, crew would have dropped the shield to kill them and............wow, ummm, did I write all....you know what...nevermind, lol :D
Worf knows that that's not Star Fleet protocol. He also konws that thats not the kind of man Picard is.
@@CodenameStudios that's like a Tarantino movie
@@CodenameStudios That went down a dark path 😂
@@CodenameStudios No Worf would have removed the air from inside the force shield letting them suffocate slowly, only for PIcard to realise what was happening and be like dammit Worf that's not what I meant! Alternatively, Worf could have beamed them into space or into the plasma manifolds... no evidence...
One of the best episodes
"I find it hard to believe that you're that good a singer."
I have a STTNG pinball machine.....One of my favorite parts of its when Data has a voice call, you can hit both flipper buttons and it it causes Picard to say 'Thank you mister data' and he shuts up.
I remember that pinball machine at the arcade in the Deptford Mall in the early 90’s!
1:53 Worf very pleased by their honor-less discomfort.
Wesley "its good to have you back sir"
Picard " Just set course Wesley, mmmkay? (sigh)"
I loved the episode!! Non verbal communication was in display......and it was hilarious 💯💯
Picard's last line was actually directed at Wesley, not the two Aliens.
Wesley: "It's good to have you back sir."
Picard: "Shut-up Wesley." 🤣
Picard: "No.1, how did you know that was a clone and not really me?"
Riker: "Frankly Sir, I had a hard time believing you were that good of a singer."
Picard: "I look forward to reading your report...maybe."
Dr. Crusher enters the chat: "Captain..." Wink Wink
Picard: "Oh Shit!"
"Imprisonment is an injury regardless of how you justify it."
How topical this has become.
explain
@@billyumbraskey8135 Well I suppose we can look back just observe past events. Do any of the following seem justifiable?
1. Taking entire Japanese-American families (and German Italian ones too) who were citizens now forcefully relocating them to a guarded outpost under threat of being shot to protect American interests? By the way, we then asked them to fight and die for us after treating them as such. So a case of not trusting them as citizens who wouldn't betray us, but see if they were willing to fight against a common enemy.
2. Forcing Native American populations into armed guard reservations. They were slowly but surely trying convert them to European values in an attempt to kill their culture and identity off for the greater good of removing their "savagery". They were curious if they could fix them as a people.
3. Maybe somethingore recent? Putting children in cages during the Trump administration? In this case sticking deaths of children separated from their adult parents in confined facilities which actually literally are wire fence cages in a building for months? Nothing curious here, just incompetent.
All this was done to justify some fear, hatred, or even curiosity. Pulling my punches in labeling all these more harshly, but I'm curtain I've given some fuel for conversation here.
@@vguyver2 Trump wasn't the one who put kids in cages. he got rid of the cages that the Obama admin created all those photos that liberals were bitching about were during the Obama admin. The media covered it up during Obama despite Obama bragging about doing it.
Biden btw has put the kids back in cages and he is even worse then the Obama admin. Kids are having to be separated because due to sexual abuse from the coyotes even three to four year olds were fondling one another in the cages. lice, disease, dehydration are rampant among the Biden kid cages
@@toomanyaccounts Stop rewriting history. Your account of events is false.
@@vguyver2 no it is factual. the kids in cages were Obama not Trump. Trump got rid of the cages. Biden put them back and made them far worse.
Its good to have you back sir......shut up Wesley.
What a show 💯🙏🇬🇧🤠🤟
Here about this aliens, which kidnapped Cap. Picard :) The Uamtonians are a race of humanoids that are characterized by a large bald cranium, a large chin and large nostrils and light brown skin. They seem to dress in blue leather-like jumpsuits. They are native to the Alpha Quadrant planet Uamton.
Three Uamtonians were responsible for kidnapping Captain Jean-Luc Picard using an energy beam in 2366, and holding him with the Mizarian Kova Tholl, the Chalnoth Esoqq, and the Bolian Starfleet cadet Mitena Haro hostages. They were conducting a maze experiment to study leadership qualities, since their race has no distinctions of authority. After Picard discovered what happened, they returned him to the USS Enterprise-D where he trapped the two aliens in a force field. They plead to be let go. After Picard showed them how it is be to held against one's will, that kidnapping is wrong, he dropped the force field and ordered them off his ship
where are you getting this from? Something not canon or official I'm guessing...........let me google...........www.google.com/search?q=Uamtonians&lr=&as_qdr=all&ei=WQh8WvD_B4W35gLx-7nQAw&start=10&sa=N&filter=0&biw=1920&bih=922 hmm, it's on the aliens wiki but has no source information/cites.
this does sound canon at all, im betting its a madeup name from a fan book.
This post should be sticky
Honestly this was super satisfying
1:56 "Captain, you have the balls of a Klingon warrior"
Perhaps our logic and curiosity must be tempered by our compassion for others.
great series.
"Now get off my ship"
*Worf proceeds to beam them into space*
"Now get off my ship!" >:-O
LOL!
He broke his little ships.
"We don't understand 'morality' but we don't want you to treat us the way that we treated you!" How the fuck did their species last so long then!?
'Now Mister Worf!" Worf pulls out a phaser and vaporised them.
You know...ive always felt Worf was a bit slow here. This shoulda been a one button event. Wasn't he supposed to be ready?
0:19 Anyone else notice how the officer in the background acts as if the captain being revealed to be an alien imposter as the real one suddenly materialises on the bridge unannounced and the imposter resuming his true form in a blazing flash of light is absolutely nothing out of the ordinary?
Good to have you back sir.
Shut up whesley!
first ever star trek episode i ever watched ever, ever!
Funny one to start with. You wouldn't have known the difference between the real and fake Picards.
And that's why everyone loves Wesley.
Picard being a badass Captain! lol!
'And now that you have had a taste of captivity, for 20 seconds, perhaps you will suddenly develop a sense of morality and empathy'
Thing is, that short time still scared them absolutely shitless. I legit think it might’ve scarred them for life, given how they reacted to it. They aren’t gonna forget that.
Picard's implied threat probably scared them more.
who else recognized that the object that abducted him looks exactly like the monolith in "2001"? which leads to a critical interpretation of its ending: or did good old Bowman ask for being sent on his little "odyssey"?
They just weren't ready for the pink lemonade forcefield.
It's missing 2 seconds at the end, the captain saying : Shut up Wesley !
why does it take three people to set up a force field
Possibly due to it being on the bridge, in the actual Conn area. Safe guards disengaged, command override on the CO chair console. Do you really want a one button force field on the bridge? I'm almost positive it was not a basic force field either.
0:33 holy fuck these aliens are THICC
I'm trying to find the scene before this where Riker mutinies! Epic! Lol
I think that was a different scenario, where Romulans had Riker trapped in a simulation
Picard is just one big playa
In other words this translates to- "I got you by the balls and I can keep you here. Now get the fuck out before I change my mind."
why was the doppelganger taking them to the pulsar.
These aliens seem very powerful in whatt they were able to do, replicate living matter including the memories of one another. It doesn't make sense that the force field would hold them as they have all of Picard's knowledge and would know how to shut it off. Also, where are they coming from? Was their prison in a cloaked ship that followed the enterprise, and if it was they transported Tholl and Esoqq light years back to their home worlds.
I disagree. Even if you are all migthy powerfull beeing. A distraction can cause you to fall. Plus they seem they are not inmune to high energy fields around them. The same things goes to Goku in Dragon Ball Z. He let his guard dawn and get owned by a simple laser.
Picard is much to kind. I would have kept them in captivity a LOT longer than that.
'Shut up, Crusher!'
"And stop brown-nosing, Wesley!"
I would be curious to know what was done exactly in this scene, as far as computer input commands. Worf obviously turned the force field on and off at the very end, but what about before when Riker gave him a look? And what did Riker and Data themselves do on their stations?
Riker probably input the codes to allow this forcefield to happen on the bridge. Data probably change the parameters of the forcefield to be domed slightly above their heads. And Worf was to actually get ready to deploy said forcefield.
Those aliens do have concepts of THICC though.
2:03 Worf : TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO DIE!!
Picard: NO!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
now there are...FOUR DEATHS!!
Wesley: don't you mean two, sir?
Picard: SHUT UP, WESLEY!!
Those guys do not handle stress very well.
"Imprisonment is an injury, regardless of how you justify it..."
2020: "hahaha lockdowns go brrr"
*Picard does the throat pull*
*Worf vaporizes the Aliens*
"WORF?! I meant turn the force field off. Not vaporize them..."
I have to agree with critics about this scene, that unless Picard had pre-instruction call signs for "put them in a force field" then "with a single look" could mean a million things.
Having worked in the US Navy, I can maybe help you with that: Every ship, as a matter of policy, has a set of pre-planned responses designed for specific events and occasions. Those pre-planned responses dictate what is to be done, and when to do it, for the entire command structure from top to bottom. Most ships won't enact the policy 100%, allowing for the flexibility of the command structure to determine precisely when and if those pre-planned responses are enacted.
Even so, the command structure and operational crew will have already prepared themselves for the enactment of this policy. All it would take is a single signal to put the policy in motion.
Ships - their officers and their crew - train constantly, even while on deployment, with regard to the policies and responses in question. The members of the Enterprise's bridge crew - a combination of a regular ship's bridge crew and their "command and control" crew - would have been quite certain, even to the point of muscle memory, of what their orders were WITHOUT having to be told.
This is the entire point of that part of the episode - that leadership does not reside solely in the ability of the leader to dictate commands. That a well-lead team will be prepared (through training and experience) without such commands.
This is why you never fuck with Picard.
Did Picard just say make way to The Hood Warp 8 ?? So Picard is all gangsta now...cool.
02:33 Wesley's Ass-kissing of Superiors 101, perfected..!
The aliens remind me of the Kipper Kids!
MEHOFF JACK Picard's last line was "Mr. Crusher, set course to rendezvous with the hood, warp 8"
Di NA are you ok?
If only Picard could have done this with the Borg when they abducted him in Best Of Both Worlds. But then again, where's the fun in that?
Borg would have adapted and transported through the force field
And how many looks and buttons it takes to make a shield around these aliens?
Isn't that the wrong Picard? At the start of the video the real Picard beams in with the alien and says "hold your position, take not action" he is facing the fake Picard standing in front of the captains chair? But at 0:12 it is the real Picard that turns into the Alien?
I thought the same thing at first. The director crossed the line at 0:12. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/180-degree_rule. Usually it's only mildly disorienting to the viewers because they can easily re-establish who's where in the scene. But in this scene the characters are identical so it's not just disorienting, it actually looks like a mistake. Really poor filming. It would be hard to devise a worse example of line crossing than this.
lickspittle If you look at the direction the alien who beams in with picard is facing. It is a little less of a problem. He walks over slightly facing the real picard (on the right) after the jump cut he is still slightly facing the real picard (now on the left).
Didn't know the Hodge twins were on Star Trek TNG.
I remember this episode. While Picard was trapped, the doppelganger Picard was actually cool towards the crew. He even hangs around in the cafeteria and sings in front of the crowd. 😆 Unfortunately, that gave away and just confirmed Riker's suspicion that wasn't their Captain 😏
And then the doppelganger ordered the Enterprise to fly into a star. Not so cool after all.
Yeah, if the crew followed orders of the imposter they would all be dead.
"We don't understand any concepts that would cause us to feel bad about our actions." "Oh my God, we didn't eradicate all of Ayn Rand's literature."
Likes are not enough, this needs a noble peace prize.
Get off my ship !
How do these aliens manipulate objects with only two fingers on each hand?
Now. Be Judgemental and less curious.
These old shows had so much morality and you could even learn things. Unlike todays billion dollar trash that hollywood makes.
Would like to have seen Sisko and crew do that, doubt they could have managed that kind of cohesiveness needed to understand.
That's because it wouldn't be necessary. Sisko would have punched them in the face and they never would have bothered him again, it worked on Q. Lesson of the day: Don't fuck with The Sisko.
@@williamcostigan91
Damn right!!!😎
+William Costigan So, Sisko doesn't trust his crew to have that level of competence. Fair enough.
@@Ares99999 I'm not sure what competency level it takes to need three different people press dozens of buttons to engage one little forcefield. Seems like the Federation Flagship needs some simplifying.
Worf could have easily misinterpreted the slit throat gesture Picard gave
Could you care to tell me movie or episode name
.... was the final line "....oh shut up Wesley" ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣takes me back decades lol
Irregardless !
Three Uamtonians were responsible for kidnapping Captain Jean-Luc Picard using an energy beam in 2366, and holding him with the Mizarian Kova Tholl, the Chalnoth Esoqq, and the Bolian Starfleet cadet Mitena Haro hostages.
got off my ship!!! xDDDDD
The only thing that would have made that scene better is if someone would have said, "Shut up, Wesley" at the very end.
Why did it take three control panels to create that force field?
because plot. he had to demonstrate his LOOKS and nonverbal shit could do the judo.
the captors look virtually identical to aliens in an Outer Limits episode so much for originality.............
Would have been hilarious if it took 10 people to set up the force field…lol
Space the freaks
"Imprisonment is an injury regardless of how you justify it."
Hard cheese, then, for the hundreds of thousands of inmates in prison getting injured daily...
I could not agree more!! Think of all those families and lone children at the boarder. They are truly injured for life!!
Imprisonment as a form of punishment for a crime is injury as recompense for ones actions. You harm others, you will be harmed as restitution. Debt to society paid.
Meanwhile, the Enterprise has a brig...
@@clg2674 imprisonment wo justification is an injury. not justifiable imprisonment. those families and the people who abduct those children and pose as their parents just need to be sent back and stop trying to cross borders. unless you want to put them in your house?
2:02 I'm not sure this is the correct gesture...
Yes, it looked more like "Off with their heads, Lieutenant Worf"
I think it meant, “kill the power”. Weird way to do it, but it worked.
But they only used this once
Oh, shut up Wesley!
What was the moral of this episode?
Treating other Beings from other Worlds like 'Lab Rats' just to satisfy the Captors' curiosity is one reason. Another reason would be that the Captors thought that They could 'Play God' over other Sentient Beings' Lives and impose Their version of Morality on Others to justify capturing Beings from other Worlds. Picard had to teach Them that Their beliefs and actions are morally wrong to any race of Beings from other Worlds that They meet, and if They continue on with Their ways of capturing other Beings, They will be met with the full force coming from The United Federation Of Planets*, which are many Worlds strong together.
