Why I liked it
|
127 / 2:1
The child
|
New faces, new places... "I'm going
to have this baby." An android / birth. When to be selfish, and when
not to. A jump to warp from the inside. The counselor as
mother. Bartender = counselor? The crew is one big happy
family.
|
128 / 2:2
Where silence has lease
|
Suicide better then being
killed. Like rats in a maze. What is death? Curiosity.
|
129 / 2:3
Elementary, dear Data
|
Our crew meets Moriarty, and 19th
century London. We learn by failing. Can an android deduce? What
is life? Self-preservation. Quiet episode, intelligent
solution. Politeness to a computer.
|
130 / 2:4
The outrageous Okona
|
Charisma. Humor. Is good. Choosing the kind of life you
want. "O'Connor". Fewer demands, more talk.
|
132 / 2:5
Loud as a whisper
|
A mediator. Intellect - passion -
harmony. 3 parts of a person, so a deaf/mute person needs 3
translators. Empathy/telepathy. Proud to be deaf. Focus on the common, not the differences.
Turn a disadvantage into an advantage. Arrive to a conflict with no
preconceived idead.
|
131 / 2:6
The schizoid man
|
Life doesn't have happy
endings. Pain is necessary. Living forever. Won't work. Android,
wanting to be human. Exhibiting emotions, like love. Exorcism
|
133 / 2:7
Unnatural selection
|
Quarantine. Genetic manipulation,
dangerous.
|
134 / 2:8
A matter of honor
| An
exchange program! Cultures crashing together. Klingon
culture. Rather good!
|
135 / 2:9
The measure of a man
| An
old love. We must protect the unique. A farewell party for a
crewmember. When the law asks people to argue against their own
opinion. Slavery. Is the android property, or a
person? Sentience: intelligence, consciousness, self-awareness. The
right to choose. A soul. Excellent!
|
136 / 2:10
The dauphin
|
A young man falls in love, for the
first time. A harsh governess. Arrive to a conflict with no
preconceived idead. Duty. Destiny. How to handle love /
humor. The Klingon finds a friend, unexpectedly. Love isn't
easy.
|
137 / 2:11
Contagion
|
The android dies. Just kidding.
|
138 / 2:12
The Royale
|
Our crew meets the 20th
century. Logic to solve a problem. The android as a gambler.
|
139 / 2:13
Time squared
|
Duplication through time
travel. "Knowing" about a catastrophe in the near future, and trying to
avoid it. The captain facing himself.
|
140 / 2:14
The Icarus factor
|
Estranged father/son. A father
daring to have a woman. Forgiveness. Respect. The first officer
passing up a captains chair. The Klingon lusting for
celebration/violence. Feelings are important. The value of a good
fight. Martial arts, with a twist. Coping with sorrow and
loss. Very, very interesting. Almost perfect.
|
141 / 2:15
Pen pals
|
The value of admitting ignorance. Being in charge for the first
time. P.D. Breaking it. Responsibility/authority. The
philosophical - and the real. How rigid are rules? Friendship / the
android.
|
142 / 2:16
Q who?
|
Treating impoliteness with
consequence. Cyborg. Don't respond to weapons. Always enemies.
Collective. Ignoring what isn't a threat. Stamina. Taking a slice out
of the ship - weird sight. The captain admitting
weakness. Complacency needs kicking.
|
143 / 2:17
Samaritan snare
|
Self-discipline.
|
144 / 2:18
Up the long ladder
|
A Klingon romantic. Our crew, and
Irish farmers. Clones. A creative solution. Valuing the
differences.
|
145 / 2:19
Manhunt
|
Humor. 1941 and our crew.
|
146 / 2:20
The emissary
|
The Klingon meets an old love. Our crew meets Klingons from the
past, 75 years out of the loop. There are always options. Two half
Klingons. "Comfortable chair." :-) Love. Good one!
|
147 / 2:21
Peak performance
|
The ultimate simulation. The leader picks his own team. I love
Worf! Playing because the opponent is a master, and it is a
privilige. Improvisation. It is possible to make no mistake, and
still lose. That is life. Humor. Very good!
|
148 / 2:22
Shades of gray
|
Laughing in the face of danger and
death. Death is the ultimate test of character. Not as bad as I
feared.
