107. Overly smarmy alien who will later turn out to be a baddie, welcomes Kirk, Spock and expendable "security" crewmen to his castle/mansion/tent/cave and then says, "But Captain, how remiss of me, I have not introduced you to my daughter Aurora..." *cue wobbly space music and tons of soft focus*

Archel (Archel), Friday, 6 October 2006 16:32 (nineteen years ago)

They had to ration replicator usage in Voyager, during which time they harvested alien foods from the surfaces of planets.

134. Ferengi refuses to cooperate.
135. Human woman contemptuously tickles Ferengi's ears.
136. Pathetic Ferengi cooperates due to apparent non-existence of Ferengi women.
137. Non-human creature (robot, hologram, de-Borgified chick) is far more interested in and self-aware about goal-oriented human development than any of the actual humans on board, who behave more like robots, more or less just doing their jobs and only occasionally indulging in a replicator dish that reminds them of wherever they came from.

(Question regarding "set phasers on stun" -- what were they set on before? Were they all walking around the Enterprise with their phasers set on "kill?" But now that they're down on the alien planet, time to take it down a notch?)

nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 6 October 2006 17:33 (nineteen years ago)

(Or possibly on the ship they keep them set on "tickle" and amuse one another by phasing Uhura when she bends over to pick something up?)

nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 6 October 2006 17:34 (nineteen years ago)

what were they set on before?

Um, 'off'?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 6 October 2006 17:34 (nineteen years ago)

But that's horrible tactics, Ned! They beam down to the planet, do an assessment, and then turn on their weapons? That's just begging for an ambush. Plus they're totally unprotected while on the ship. Plus show me any piece of technology on Star Trek that ever turned off!

Plus they're totally unprotected while on the ship. Plus show me any piece of technology on Star Trek that ever turned off!

*sigh* God help me for remembering this -- should you ever see First Contact again, plz to note that when the Enterprise arrives to help Starfleet fight the Borg ship, they arrive in the middle of a huge battle scene, things blowing up everywhere, etc. etc. Picard goes onto the bridge, they all say the usual hoohah to each other, and then they cut to the forward view.

The screen is blank. And then it is turned on.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 6 October 2006 19:24 (nineteen years ago)

139. Archer and co. end up on some desert planet which usually has a black market of some sort.

140. Never sure whether or not to trust this seemingly changed Cardassian

141. Somebody puts oatmeal in Odo's bucket...or did that only happen the once?

The Ultimate Conclusion (lokar), Friday, 6 October 2006 19:25 (nineteen years ago)

142. After confronting the baddie/insane crew member, and saying 'it's over', the baddie/insane crew member continues. The captain cries, "no, wait..." and the baddie/insane crew member dies.

Giant Banana Reacting (lokar), Friday, 6 October 2006 19:27 (nineteen years ago)

kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 6 October 2006 20:36 (nineteen years ago)

Did they ever do a holodeck ep without letting the audience know it was a holodeck ep? You could do whatever the fuck you wanted with the characters that way - kill off all sorts of people and have trekkie going nuts for 20 minutes every week before the final "it was all a dream" pay off.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 6 October 2006 20:36 (nineteen years ago)

there was that Voyager ep set in WWII, right?

kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 6 October 2006 20:38 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah but then you know it's holodeck as it's back in time. I mean doing one where the holodeck is a mock up of the Enterprise and everyone thinks it's a real ep and you're like "WTF they killed off Data and Riker and Troi's making out with Crusher!" then someone says "holodeck off" just as the credits roll.

Butt Dickass (Dick Butkus), Saturday, 7 October 2006 02:46 (nineteen years ago)

14. Comic relief as Bones and Kirk explain an illogical human nuance to Spock.

Incidentally, this is my favorite part of the show.

Butt Dickass (Dick Butkus), Saturday, 7 October 2006 02:47 (nineteen years ago)

God help ME for knowing this, but yes they did. It was on Voyager, and it turned out to be Tuvok's simulation of a Maquis mutiny. Actually not a bad episode of a pretty bad series.

It's the lazy and immoral way to become super hip. (Austin, Still), Saturday, 7 October 2006 02:52 (nineteen years ago)

was that the one where harry kim dies at the beginning?

sublime frequency (sublime frequency), Saturday, 7 October 2006 03:07 (nineteen years ago)

hey while i'm in the best of company here, does anyone remember an episode (i think it was either Voyager or TNG) where they are all in a como or something crazy, but are in this dream world, and they get executed french-revolution style in the dream and you're like, oh but it's just a dream BUT THEN they die of a heart attack in real life? and the doctor's like GAH WHAT'S HAPPENING!?

sublime frequency (sublime frequency), Saturday, 7 October 2006 03:09 (nineteen years ago)

uh, a coma...

sublime frequency (sublime frequency), Saturday, 7 October 2006 03:10 (nineteen years ago)

Jeez, I don't remember if Harry died in it or not. It wasn't that great, you know, just better than most of the shit on that series. I think it was pre-Bimborg, if that helps.

For your other question, that doesn't sound familiar to me at all.

It's the lazy and immoral way to become super hip. (Austin, Still), Saturday, 7 October 2006 03:14 (nineteen years ago)

Shit, yeah, the more I think about it, the more I think that Kim does get killed fairly early on. Parris shoots him on the bridge, right?

It was such a fucking cocktease of an episode: "Yeah, we'll actually be doing something interesting! There will be conflict between the characters and we'll examine the premise of the show a little! PSYCHE IT'S ONLY MAKE BELIEVE! We'd never do something non-boring for real on this show."
