Star Trek The Next Generation: The Naked Now (First Watch: S1E2)

Death/injury count: an entire ship either blown out into space or frozen naked. (80?) geordi and data are probably affected.

Well, that seems norm—why does something have to be wrong?  Er, well, that’s the wrong question, but why do they have to know something’s gone wrong?  They routinely meet up with other vessels all the time.

Well, that was…unnecessarily crude.

…IF A HATCH WAS BLOWN THEY COULDN’T BE ON THERE WITHOUT SPACESUITS

Lt Yar.  I’m going to find you interesting.

Great, more sound issues.  (it says that’s a known issue though)

…it’s not like the TOS opening was mind-blowing, but this seems even more underwhelming (maybe because I expect more with more tech?)

TOS they used spacesuits + decontam in the transporter.  Which is more realistic.

Yeah, sure it is.  There won’t be anything wrong with isolating you, either.

Is it contagious or is it exposure?

Oh, they can’t track him without the pin.

I will say it again, Med/Sick Bay needs a separate quarantine section.  Standard procedure.

Kid, you shouldn’t have shown affected man tech.

If they’re common sense precautions today, they should be in the future.

Seriously, STOP THE SPACE PLAGUE

What about WE’RE HERE TO FIND THE UNKNOWN don’t you get?  It’s an unknown

Strings of water acting like alcohol?  Is that…possible?  (also, what is it referring to?  Oh yeah, the one where they ACTUALLY WORE BIOSUITS and the IDIOT BROKE QUARANTINE BY SCRATCHING HIS NOSE)

Tasha, are you flirting with Deanna?

Can’t you just look it up Data?

Was the butt shot necessary?

You’re all idiots.

Oh, yeah, obvious.

This is basically just Reilly again.  And is just as much mutiny.

Engineering is the same on pretty much every ship.

Thanks for not finishing that.

Why would you program Data that closely?

I like Deanna, too.  Interesting accent.

This sounds more like a prion-type thing. 

Kirk would give him the order rather than mess with that.

“they never swore before” as Picard just says h*ll.

(which, let me weigh in on this.  I am reasonably certain that some parts of humanity at least, or rather some individuals, will continue to swear.  It’s been a constant.  I would also like to think that in a better future world it would be less common, and certainly not involve the f-bomb.  I also think that practically no one would use current swear words, given how quickly this changes.)

Bye Data.

What was that sound????

YOU’RE A STRONG INDEPENDENT WOMAN, HYOU DON’T NEED NO MAN.

Is that how stars supernova?

HOW DID YOU NOT CHECK IF YOU COULD MANEUVER BEFORE NOW???

I like the Engineering lady.

IT DOESN’T MATTER WHO DID IT, NOBODY’S GONNA CARE IF WE ALL DIE!!!

Riker, so far, is fine.

That look of ‘oh g*d, we’re all gonna die.’

Oh, yeah, the first action—Data and Yar.

“fine crew if you avoid temptation” really?  the ‘sex is evil’ thing?
