Only the Ferengi could could pull of hostage exchange fraud

This is like “Thanks, I’m Cured,” for Data lol

She did? I thought she was just an off-grid hippie. I didn’t find Picard particularly memorable though

I’ve always considered the lack of space drugs to be a network TV concession. Pike uses deadly parsley to cook, I’m sure there are some wild substances you can get on just about any station, and they’ve probably made it into an art form on Earth

According to Data, synthehol’s “intoxicating effects can be easily dismissed.” (TNG: “Relics”)

This is what I always took to be the important part, and why they use it on Starfleet ships, even though normal alcohol is obviously common and enjoyed on Earth. It’s a safety concern. Rather than having all your crew rushing to take Sober-Up™ every time there’s a red alert, they drink synthehol, because they can shake it off themselves

I imagine it’s gonna be tough to top the classic Wrap it Up approach, especially as we discover all the strange new STIs. Physical separation is important for all kinds of things

Also Spock anytime Spock does something human

I just watched TOS S2E1 the other day, and I was surprised by how much the new Chapel actually looks like her. They cast her really well. Before, I’d really only seen Barrett as Lwaxana.

Instant site-to-site transporting condoms, probably

Boimler did say Starfleet is always updating and improving them. Maybe that’s why they changed on the D. Riker forced them to invent anti-console padding

He got to in the season 3 finale

Just another world filled with the ruins of a civilization that ascended to energy beings

Who do you think did the QA for Data’s “functions”
