    “All we know is he’s NOT the Stig. He’s the Stig’s balder, space-faring cousin.”

      Between this scene and the ridiculous voice modulation they gave Worf, I can’t blame him.

    The original schematics had a car or truck somewhere if I recall, along with a giant duck. (The technical manual was a blast)

    I wish Lower Decks had covered the duck.

    Of course Brent Spiner had to wear those safety goggles when they filmed, but I also love the in-universe idea of Data putting on a piece of safety equipment completely unnecessary for himself just to fit in with his friends.

    So many people complained about the buggy but I never got it. We’ve seen tons of situations where the shuttles aren’t totally viable so it makes sense that they’d have a backup. And humans like to have fun. If Picard never had a reason to bring that out until now, makes sense he’d want to enjoy it the same way any Dad does when they pull out a new tool/toy for the first time.
