@@Eternal_Tech They're literally asking for money for their Paypal; "Buy me some beans". Seems like profiting from anothers work to me. I love watching content like this, but it should really be taken down.
And his recommendations are always shot down
What the fuck's up with the shitty frame rate.
I love how Worf has literally never successfully defended the bridge. Always been throw about the room or told to stand down.
There were probably times not shown when he succeeded. However, the boring missions are not episodes. If Worf defeated someone easily, that mission would likely not be an episode.
Star Trek TNG is in fact, a list of missions where Worf has failed to do his job properly.
Well somebody who can make it onto the bridge is usually pretty powerful
They keep using Worf to show how powerful something is. "If it can beat Warf it must be powerful." However, after so many times of showing Warf get beat, it starts feeling like Worf isn't that powerful. The scenes of him destroying people other than Klingons are too few and far between.
Worf always lost fights on TNG because he was constantly rushing up against beings far more powerful than he was, which they were encountering due to traipsing around the galaxy. DS9 was much better for him, as he was mostly encountering regular beings and not some energy being-possessed type.
>Conceal this information as long as you exist
>tells the senior officers the whole story a few hours later
Lol, Yes but that was the whole plot of the story. He was given conflicting orders by the Picard who woke up who didn't know that Picard told him not to tell Picard anything!
What choice did he have but to reveal it? The Paxton had taken over Troi, again, and were again threatening to destroy the Enterprise... Picard successfully negotiated the first time... you've got to hope that he can do it again and help fix what they got wrong the first time... and Data doesn't have the grasp on human nature that Picard does.
Alright so Data should have just been like
"I agree with the lady here, yall fucked up. I didnt tell them anything , i swear"
After the material information had been revealed or unavoidable.
They failed the first time and Data was discovered.
Worf gets no respect.
That said grabbing a gun then moving into punching range is a dumb move even for a Klingon.
To be fair, she was right next to the Captain and there was no reason to suspect the possession would make her stronger than normal
So why when I play apex legends everyone closes to melee range to shoot their gun.
He doesn't know if shooting her would hurt Tori. A stun might not do anything and more might kill her
First rule of combat, consider not only your target but also what is beyond it.
If you miss, what might you hit? In this case the answer is the Captain.
The way to protect anyone from your line of fire is to put them behind you, not behind the target.
I would also note though it is a testament to his awareness of surroundings; there was a flash of green light but no one else seemed to react to it, and it seemed pretty clear he recognized her as a threat immediately. And mere seconds from having been, essentially, drugged into unconsciousness. And as many people elsewise have pointed out, it's not like there's a reason for him to think that she suddenly would be able to break the laws of physics with the amount of force she can exert. But I do think its fair to criticize internal security processes; any fleet would bury its admirals in shame if their vessels were taken over by enemies, whom don't even know the language of those running the ship and the tech they use to do so, as regularly as Starfleet. Hell I think Carnival cruise would hang their head in shame if they had a security record to match Starfleet.
That compound certainly works quickly.
Maybe Compound ADTH is vaporized cocaine.
Enterprise compounds are always on fleek.
Basically aerosolized meth and rhino horn.

Picard: Satisfactory?
Alien: No. What if he downloads his files into an inferior version of himself and that android ends up in a lab where people can access his memory?
Picard: Do you really think something so ridiculous would happen?
:)
Lol.
Your knowledge of the future is extraordinary.
Data would delete knowledge of the aliens prior to transfer.
Thankfully it was like trying to upload the cloud to a Commodore 64!
According to the explanation, they only controlled Troi, not enhanced her strength. That means Troi can naturally overpower Worf to that extent, so it's no wonder he married her in that one timeline
Makes no sense as Baitazoids do not have enhanced strength.
Just bad writing sadly
Well, Data did not explicitly say that they can ONLY control synaptic functions so it opens up the possibility that they can also temporarily increase muscle strength. Or it could be the result of leaving important details out of the dialog. Although the idea of Troi having super strength all these years without us knowing it is also kind of intriguing.
@@JustWasted3HoursHere It's also something Betazoids might not want to be common knowledge. Imagine the type of attention having enhanced strength would receive, to a race that can feel the anguish of causing someone pain. They would want to avoid people challenging them, with the intent to make a name for themselves.
I don't think they have enhanced strength, but it is fun to theory craft, and Star Trek is a great show to theory craft.
@@Poshriel👍
@@JustWasted3HoursHere Unlocked human muscle and bone structure can lift a car, once.
4:10 "Here we are... again." Always makes me chuckle. Picard's realization at his own tenacity to solve a mystery.
I've gotta admit he's consistent. His favorite holo-character is detective Dixon Hill. He's an obsessive amateur archaeologist. And in "Lonely Among Us," the entity targets him specifically because of his insatiable need to explore.
@@PrestigeLearningPicard's meddling almost caused the destructiom of the Enterpise & crew. He should have listened to Data.
01:44 Troi starts speaking.
Crewman in the back turns around.
Troi speaks of destroying the ship.
Crewman goes back to work.
Oh, another alien threatening to blow us to smithereens. How predictable!
Those tetris aren't gonna play itself.
Well that’s just the average Tuesday on the Enterprise.
Maybe he's the one crew member who understands that his attention to his station is paramount, and the senior officers are able to handle the intruder.
@@sherpajones "They pretend to pay me, and I pretend to work"
That was the most pathetic worf takedown I think there ever was.
True, but props for recognizing an alien threat even in the body of his friend.
Hahha flick of the wrist
Barrel has entered the chat
Worfs spine has left the chat
@@diamondrel5190 oh fuck 🤣🤣🤣
1:34 And now you know how Troi became such a turn-on to Worf.
Also worked on me!
How did Worf become a "turn-on" for Troi ? After all, Worf was worried he would injury human (or half) females and Troi was on the smaller size.
@@menacelurkingyet8345 I was subtly referring to their romance that was kindled in the last couple seasons of TNG. Personally, I thought the 'ship was a bit ill-conceived, and the writers never really developed it into anything particularly meaningful or interesting. You win some, you lose some...
@@zagnorch1336 It would seem the writers agreed with you, because Worf ended up with Jadzia-Dax on Deep Space Nine and Troi ended up marrying Riker in Nemesis.
You know it's serious when Worf doesn't recommend weapons.
He might have missed and blown up the planet XD
Data to Worf: You'll only harm Counselor Troi's body.
Troi's body: I'm going to snap Worf's wrist like paper.
I was having trouble with my heart and was on (what I presumed) was my final bed, for about a month. As I was dealing with all of that I caught your videos, I was never into star trek growing up, but for some reason your clips were edited perfectly to keep my attention, these videos brought me A LOT of comfort when I was going through a terror every single day. I now love TNG.
its been about a year and I just heard "did anyone here subscribe" and it just made me feel at ease. that and the "I love beans" intros are just heart-warming to hear for me now
It's a small story, but I just wanted to say thanks.
Very uplifting ! A small stone may only make a ripple in the water, at first, but one day that ripple could form part of a mighty wave. In this sense, our actions - like a simple upload of TNG, could yield peace and calm to someone far across the planet, years later. This is a powerful reminder to all of us to always be mindful of the ripples our own actions can bring about. 😊
Glad you're doing better, thanks for sharing 👍
I'd say @AlexTrev006 and @spk1121 already made the essential comments. But, this is the kind of comment I love and I'm very glad to read that you made it through that month - and are presumably doing quite a bit better!
_I happen to have a bit of sentimentality for the "I love beans" song as well - though not tied to anything so significant. But, still, totally agree there, also (i.e., in addition to nicely edited clips etc.)..._
Although a decent episode, it would have been so easy for Picard, with a bit of foresight, to prevent this from happining. After initially agreeing to the terms with the Paxon, he could have asked the Paxon and Data to join him in his ready room. There he could make an audio and visual recording of him giving the orders to Data, being as vague as possible. It would begin with Dr Crusher performing a physical and psychological evaluation before being dismissed. "I'm ordering you to never speak again of what you witnessed when we entered sector xxxx. This video is a record of my orders, as I will shortly consent to having my memory and the memory of the crew erased. This record is to be classified under Lt. Commander Data's big ass unbreakable security clearance code. Data, your orders are to show this record to Captain Picard ONLY if all other efforts at preventing the return of the Enterprise to sector XXXX have failed. You are also ordered to destroy this record as soon as you deem it not necessary to retain."
I have come to expect a bit more creative and pre-emptive thinking on the part of a starship captain. But then we wouldn't have this episode.
I’ll disagree, since this leaves evidence of an unexplored secret. If anyone were to get ahold of this recording, then it’d be just a matter of investigating the situation intensely and all would eventually be revealed.
Perhaps the coordinates and date of creation of the recording can be concealed, but there might be other ways to gleam useful information from the video.
Also Data would probably never delete the recording until Picard's death, since a situation, where they could meet the Paxans again, however unlikely, could still occur.
Picard's plan in the episode was one of the best possible ones, since it minimises the evidential footprint. Though a better solution would’ve been to delete the memory of every crew member, but not his own.
@@bluestorm749 if it's in possession of data, it's as safe as any other info he has
@@0Arcoverde exactly, trusting data with that knowledge is the same as trusting a random, die-hard loyal crew member with it.
He’s immune to some psychic methods, but not technological. Especially since you can just hook him up to a computer and read his memory that way.
Sometimes he doesn’t even have a say in someone poking in his head.
Someone might accidentally discover it when he’s been knocked out by some electro-magnetic pseudoscience and can’t affect the repair procedure in anyway.
Also, who says Jean-Luc Picard outranks everyone in the command chain, someone can overwrite his command.
Data is very safe, but let’s not deceive ourselves that he’s completely uncrackable.
@@bluestorm749 All that means though is that at worst, it's on-par with what they actually attempted here. No matter what form the secret has, it's kept with Data. That's the crucial crux they have to work around anyway. This proposition is just a way to assuage Picard himself.
@@emdivine that’s where my initial criticism comes in. The existence of an extra record in Data's memory makes a leak just a bit more probable. I recognise the logic in the comment above, but at the end it’s just extra evidence of a very important secret.
Besides, even if Picard watches this video, then he’s almost just as clueless as before, except now there’s some guy identical to himself telling him to stop investigating.
So in the end it’s just extra traces left in Data for someone to accidentally or intentionally discover. Also, if Picard does watch the record, whether he believes it or not, he may also leak evidence willingly or not.
Yes, here we are again with another opportunity to see Worf being thrown around in an implausible manner.
"I'm trying to think of a birthday gift for Guinan. Options?"
"Recommend a full spread of phasers and photon torpedoes in two-second bursts."
: NO Worf!
They erased the memory of everyone on the ship. One of those moments where you realize how horrifying life on the Enterprise must've been for all the children onboard.
And the woman!
Just another day of drudgery for the lower decks. How is a memory wipe of yesterday's turbo lift maintenance not a blessing or just déjà vous
@@user-cc6kd5ye9yim sat here chucking about an Ensign who never existed having to undo his work from the day before.
The short-term memory. Long term remained.
Better not let the crew know. Imagine what people might do if they realized no one could remember it. That would be a good twist!
2:57 "I'm not sure that you're going to be able to integrate it into your program". Of course he's sure, he worked with Data for a long time and also knows very much how he works. I think he does that remark to show that Paxan that, in fact, Data will follow the order of his captain no matter how unusual.
I think is brilliant writing, like pretty much all of TNG.
I found it hilarious when counsoler Troy stood up and worf yelled/motioned "captain your under attack". Standing is now an attack on the captain...
He technically only said captain
He could probably put 2 and 2 together from the ominous cloud of green energy that flew into her face.
Funny how Troi merely standing up made Worf super jumpy.
Ya know. When it comes to klingons there is a reason Troy was able to take Worf down like that.
He likes her and technically that was foreplay for Klingons......
"No. Understand, Commander. We did not find a planet in this sector. We passed through without incident. No significant discoveries were made. This conversation never happened...and I was never here."
"Yes, mister Jones."
"I'm sorry. No such person exists."
And the torpedo hit the hull, and I was never here.
What I never understood is the part about making it seem that only 30 seconds have passed when in fact it was days. Wouldn't that fall apart pretty quickly as soon as they spoke to anyone outside of the Enterprise?:
"Hey Jean Luc, it's me Robert Picard, your brother, why didn't you call me yesterday like we arranged?"
"Robert you silly goose it's only Monday!"
"Jean Luc, it's Wednesday!"
*Checks with Starfleet HQ*
"Good lord!"
They were to have passed through a wormhole. They can play havoc with space time and would be an acceptable excuse for time dilation.
They would've known something had happened at SOME point then, yes.
But in this case they realized it one day after they all feel asleep and found plenty of other hints something was wrong - with more temporal distance chances were they'd just say "Eh, must've happened at some point in the last three months, no biggie".
Since they travel at super speeds, relativity comes into play and there's always a difference between the time that passed on earth and the time that passed on the ship. It makes sense they would just trust the computer and not worry about whatever spacetime anomaly made a 1 day difference to the clock in their travels
@@KipdoesStuff Yup, basically a "well, that was a weird, useless AND detrimental spacial phenomena, let us never go there again." Or at least, that's the idea - however they never quite counted on humanity and the effect best described in the ooold "There is a phrase in Vulcan for 'The Particular Moment You Understand What the Word "F---" Is For'" meme.
@@HolbrookStarkthe only time they travel at relativistic speeds in our universe is while they're under inpulse power. Warp has them shift into subspace to travel, and I dont believe they've ever indicated that time dilation is a feature of traveling in subspace.
Worf: Comes up with a good suggestion
Picard: No.
"Here we are again.. all because you forgot to replace that can of beans"
One of the coolest mysteries TNG ever did.
I think crusher losing her mind in limbo was pretty intense too.
I feel the time loop episode was the better mystery. It wasn't a mystery to us, but it sure was to the crew.
I mean it’s no Dixon Hill...
I wonder if the Paxons are hiding from Q.
@@scottys1423 Probably... Best mystery is the one where an anonymous No. 1 nearly gets the enterprise to destroy an unknown species. They are too weak to do it without a Starfleet vessel. cool...
I don't know why the Enterprise even has a crew. Data and the computer can do any shield modulation or medical procedure instantly.
Because exploration is not something humans do just to learn... exploration is something we do to experience for ourselves.
Technically that'd just be a probe like the Voyagers we've sent outside our solar system. While they can send data back to us, they don't exactly work as replacements for first contact scenarios or on site research.
There's only one Data. There are plenty of redshirts.
@@lekoman
Nano swarm avatars in constant communication with our telepresence room would do it
but Data can't repair the ship during a fight.
lmmfao poor Worf. Man that guy got such a raw deal for so many years.
1:46 (yellow shirt in the background) “Damn…I never knew she had such a sultry voice.”
I laughed really hard! Good one!
Probably playing Galaga.
I've watched this episode a few times, and I realized that the crewmen behind Worf's station are just diligently continuing their science work like nothing is happening... The one guy in the background turns around, is like "eh, just another day" and goes back to work. 😂
When Data downloaded his memories into B-4 it would be funny if he told everyone about the Paxan since he wasn't under orders from the Captain. You'd think once B-4 was disassembled and stored at The Daystrom Institute they would have examined the memories and found out about the Paxan.
Crew member in the background seems mildly interested only when possessed Troi speaks and then goes back the arbitrarily pressing buttons. Worf getting throw against the wall? "Nope, doesn't involve me."
Paxans jealousy guard their beans from aliens.
Picard: "You will conceal your knowledge of the Paxans for as long as you exist."
Paxan!Troi: "You know our name even though we never said what it was? Can you read our minds? You're more dangerous than we thought! Never mind the plan, blow this ship up!"
I think something was cut from that scene.
And Data has followed that order the second time.
Exactly, there is a glaring continuity issue in the scene with Picard identifying the Paxons despite them having not identified themselves.
unlike u three Picard was listening to Data tell the story of the first meeting....@1:21. Data says the name of the race.....
@@TheRealSmendlePicard says the name before Data tells the story, dingus. That's how flashbacks work.
This channel is awesome 💯 and the dude's love for beans funny and priceless
I always thought that erasing Picard's memory was a mistake. He's trustworthy and if he and Data both remembered the first time around, then they wouldn't have experienced the problems. Although there wouldn't be an episode either.
Yeah, but the idea was to only let Data retain it as they couldn't erase his memory, but they could fairly effectively, in theory, get him to keep a secret.
Consider that the borg assimilated Picard. They could easily steal the info directly from his brain.
The aliens don't know that. They're already accepting a massive risk allowing the robot who they can't mind wipe go, why double that with a biological life form they can wipe
'Captain, Counsellor Troi just got up out of her chair in a somewhat strange way. I, of course, immediately decided to shoot her with a phaser, as any reasonable Security Officer would. But I also made sure to get close enough for her to disarm me by awkwardly hopping down from the console first'
1:30
Warf: “There are very few people on this ship capable of breaking my arm… Lt. Commander Data and Councilor Troi…”
You know, I actually just assumed that betazed people might be alot stronger than anyone imagined and that due to their compassionate nature they simply don't want to hurt people when there isnt an alien controlling their body, like we think of the Klingons as the physically stronger startrek species but Klingons are activley aggressive and take pride in showing strength, betazeds are so peaceful that by the time the dominion war comes around they had all but disabled their own planetary defences and basically just surrendered which dosn't really rule out the possibility of them being physically stronger because their emotional strength is clearly high enough to not want to use their physical strength, that and I imagine killing someone when a betazed can feel everything their victim can would be a pretty scaring experience.
My conclusion is, maybe betazeds aren't weak in the conventinal sence but are just so compassionate that other species veiw it as a weakness, imagine having the strength to snap a Klingons wrist and just letting the dominion take your home planet, they are too compassionate and that might be their only real weakness.
@@grumpyaustralian6631
I must say I Never considered that… but it would be funny seeing a B’Zed climb on top on someone and express the emotions as they punch..
Getting more and more angry beating up a Klingon… crying and groaning beating up a human.
Indifference beating up a Vulcan.
Physical strength comes from muscle/tendons/bone. So unless betas have some special internals they aren't going to just be stronger, even if possessed by some alien life form.
@@AveragePicker Unless they are using some kind of energy in addition of the muscles
@@andresberger6240 Except muscles etc can only take ao much no matter how much "energy" you dump into them. You're only as strong as your muscles and skeleton not pulling apart.
I love that one time the TNG Crew met a Goauld. Good times!
"Yes, i have done the ceremonial beating of Worf".
Wow. Seeing Worf tossed effortlessly, like a piece of tissue paper, by Deanna Troi...that's gonna hurt his ego for a looong time. Lol
Picard's meddling almost caused the destructiom of the Enterpise & crew. He should have listened to Data.
Picard's perfect plan never accounted for his own need to solve mysteries.
I've never heard Worf's bones actually break before!! Ugh!!
Data I am going to give you a most unusual order ... I am ordering you to never reveal the location of the beans. Not to starfleet not to my self you will conceal the existence of the bean horde for as long as you exist.
I would not have needed an order to keep the location of the bean horde a secret.
“Here we are again”... a interesting choice of words.
Picard - Data, never tell anyone including me, ever. Data - ok. End of episode - Data - tells everything to Captain
We've bean here before
FARToo many bean references.
Asking an alien to effect your memory should be a huge red flag, no no.
That's one way to get people to subscribe. A true TNG fan would never disobey Captain Picard. 😂
Watching these clips always puts me in the mood to watch an episode of TNG!
That poor extra at the conn. That could NOT have been comfortable.
I love the guys in the back just shrugging and carrying on with their work. They've seen it all before.
They don't give a fuuk
Above their rank and designation.
I find possessed-Troi to be somewhat reminiscent of probe-Ilia from TMP.
Fitting, since Ilia is proto-Troi
“Options Mr. Warf”
“Captain how do I know? I just woke up like you.”
“Why would Picard trust people who just attacked him?”
1:35 I think we all waited 3 seasons for that!
'to the best of my ability' does not ensure yes.
Edit: Why couldn't Data just delete certain memories/data by order? Like a browser history...
Watched this episode for first time yesterday. Absolutely brilliant. Followed by first contact which was equally as good
The real question is, why doesn't Data delete that information from himself? he's a computer after all, he could have had it where the moment the crew wakes up, it triggers a program to delete Data's knowledge on what happened.
He's shown in a past episode where he was dating that woman that he can do that.
Maybe Picard is being a bit sly, he has to go along with the Paxans' demands but he'd also like to make sure some record of the encounter does exist somewhere for posterity's sake, in case for example the Paxan civilisation is destroyed by a disaster, or the Paxans ever abandon their position of isolation in favour of war. Or just to subtly help keep the Enterprise from accidentally returning to that planet, a job he obviously failed at in this episode.
The problem is that in the story, Data operates as an intermediary between both species. If Data didn't know what was happening either, chances are they would have gone back to the planet exactly the same way as the first time and without Data to reason with the Paxans, their only option would have been immediate annihilation of the Enterprise. In other words, the story falls apart.
@@imperium3556 "As long as you live." Opening up the possibility if carefully interpreted to leave a record for posterity when he's dying or something.
And the movie Insurrection shows that his memory engrams can be removed. But to your point, he didn't erase his memory of dating the woman, he erased a program he wrote to help him form a relationship with her.
@@imperium3556 Possible but I doubt it, it's not really his style.
and 5 minutes later he already defiled that order...
Data saves the ship again but never gains a promotion in seven years and X movies.
0:08 Geez, at least they could have lay down first before getting unconscious.
Such flattering positions
Indeed right?
Like, you know you're going to faint... so why not park your own body somewhere cozy instead of letting it hit whatever it hits?
The solo classical piano outro of the Star Trek theme song is immense!!! Thank you
Data violated the order he was just given. Perfect.
Aquires emotions, changes mind and tells everyone in his tell all book.
Poor Worf. Always a punching bag for being a member of a notorious tough race.
Worf, "I'm such a badass"
Then proceeds to get his butt kicked at every opportunity
Well, he does get his butt kicked because he's depicted and shown on other occassions that he is truly a badass. It's to show that they are facing a formidable enemy and what better way to show that then to kick the ass of the badass.
Happens with Superman every damn time.
So what this scene tells us is Picard ordered the crew to cover up any indications of the lost day, and Crusher didn't consider the experiment she had literally just started.
To be fair, she was a little preoccupied giving medical care and covering up the necessary medical records of the thousands of people on board the ship
“I am required to follow all of your orders so”
**oh, yeah… I forgot.** “Good.”
If you ask Siri to name the tune when the TNG Piano theme starts playing at the end of the video, she will always give a different song. The weirdest one so far for me has been "Hands" by Martek C. I've also been told it is Tubular Thirds by Dave Cook and O Come O Come Emmanuel (Soprano).
Emergency plan ZZAlpha? Data is obviously the greatest hitch-hiker in the galaxy! 😉
I like how all Troi has to do is stand up for Worf to know something is wrong with her.
1:45 I love the way the dude in the back just doing his business
2:05 is the best 'no' I've ever heard. Like a 5 year being told they're going to have their candy bar taken away.
That happened at the McDonald’s near me yesterday. It was closed six months for renovations. All vestiges of former prices had been erased.
Basically, "Let's get to work" means "Data, do everything and save our lives one more time".
I have loved Star Trek my whole life
All you had to do was tell Picard to become Charles Xavier and make the crew forget
Data can reset the clock, right? Well everyone will eventually notice coming home on a tuesday when they think it's Sunday. Data will say "yep, you were out for 30 seconds, but it's already taco tuesday". Additionally, Data in Picard S3 technically isn't ethically bound to picards order as "data" no longer existed.
Therefore, Taco Tueday and Lore screwed the pooch on this one.
Sorry aliens, Tacos are just too awesome to beat your power.
I think this is one of the best episodes of ST:TNG.
Even the second time around, they still should have noticed the time on the ship computer had been changed.
But when the ship's chronometer shows that only seconds have passed, will it not be noticed at the least when the ship's clock is compared with the Starfleet command the next time??
And they said it would take a day to remove their short term memories so that's two missing days they won't be able to explain when they reach the next starbase..
A wormhole could have spacial and temporal effects. That would explain the time displacement.
@@ensignmjs7058 ooooh... 👌🏻
with all the time dilatation from traveling at warp speeds, i'm not sure how they can even track time
@@Hamstray subspace standard time? 🤣
Eventually they are going to realize the computer time is off by 2 days and wonder how that happened.
Compound W always gets the job done.
Worf's little hop over that wood railing gets me every time.
Emergency plan "Zed Zed Alpha", so a bit like... "Zed Zed 9, Plural Zed Alpha", or Earth's location in Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy?
Picard: "Android, just don't tell anybody, K?" (to the alien) "Satisfactory?"
Alien: "Sounds legit!"
They should have initiated the Corbomite Maneuver.
And once again, Data saves the day!
ADTH, a real favorite at raves in the 24th century.
I literally only subscribed because I thought the intro bit was clever, and good sound mixing.
Okay but wait, what happens the next time the Ent goes for maintenance and they're like "hey, your clock is a whole day off"
I imagine they found a way to hack that
They reset the clock to match Starfleet standard, Data did that in the beginning of the ep right after the 'wormhole'
I imagine they accounted for that but, on the off chance something like this happened again Picard gave Data the order to tell him to drop it should anything lead them to question a loss of time related to this instance. Something like
"Sir. For reasons I am unable to disclose the entire crew under your orders did their best to erase this time period from all ships records and their memories for a second time and under your orders should this happen again you informed me to tell you and I quote 'Drop it Sir'."
In the time loop with Frasier, it 17 days off. They reset it and moved on.
Wormhole time displacement. Happens all the time. ;-)
Would be hilarious if Data just decided to tell everyone this random tidbit of info during the the time that he was rebelling with Lore.
I like how Picard wakes up then instant Picard maneuver on the shirt
So Data only held the secret till the plot demanded he spilled the beans. The plot is a powerful force.
beans are a powerful force
This is such an excellent episode...
I liked the subtle cracking sound when Worf got grabbed and thrown, not very noticeable on first watch, crunching of a wrist breaking.
I like the guy at the terminal behind Troi, “Wait, did she just say something about destroying the ship? Never mind that though, their are datapoints to enter into the system.”.
Odd how Worf saw Troi stand up and immediately saw that as a threat. I guess she was never supposed to leave that chair for the rest of her life.
Even more odd is why Worf drew his phaser and then ran all the way around the console railing to within an arm length of the threat instead of just firing from where he stood. What was his plan there? To kiss her?
