» Did I hear right? The Ligonian leader
is called Luton?! Oh, LuTAN...well, close enough...
» Picard gives them a little wooden horse, as an example
of thousands of years worth of cultural and technological progress.
Why not give them a Rubiks Cube instead? Hours of fun!
» So, the Ligonians have kidnapped Tasha. And she isn't immediately
beamed back up to the ship because...?
» Way to waste those torpedos guys, just explode them in
the atmosphere...never mind if they're all out of them when the
next Ferengi ship attacks...
» Picard lets Wesley sit at ops. Hmm. Would he do this for
any of the kids on the Enterprise, or just the son of the woman
he fancies?
» The Ligonians go on about honour a lot. Why isn't Worf
in this episode?
» There's an axe juggler! Presumably they're not real axes,
for insurance purposes if nothing else...
» Luton's wife challenges Yar to a duel. Until somebody has
a quiet word with her about just how good a fighter Yar is. Whereupon
Luton's wife challenges Yar to a cake-baking contest instead...
» Geordi is using a little blue box to shave with. Well,
he IS blind I suppose...
» Picard makes a rambling speech about the Prime Directive...and
then promptly apologises for making a rambling speech. So I can't
really make any snide comments about it. Oh well.
»"How could you not love him? Every woman loves him!"
Oh God, don't say George Clooney's in this...
» And Riker's let Worf on the bridge as well! What, is he
after Beverley too?!
» Yareena is in a pink catsuit, but Yar keeps her uniform
on. Damn.
» And rather than wrestling in jelly or something, they just
lunge at each other through bars. Odd, but would have made a good
round on 'Gladiators'.
»"She is not dead!" How very observant of him...
» And Yareena chooses the other bloke instead! Nice one.
Guess this was a feminist fable after all...
