» Review

» Took Riker and Worf way way too long to realise the shuttle was from the Enterprise - they frickin' spelt out the registration on each shuttle!!

» Pulaski: "His heartbeat is strong but his pulse is off." Eh?

» Pulaski: "His brainwaves are out of phase" - with what?

» LaForge on Data blowing up the computer - "How is that possible? The connection is idiot-proof" - isn't that what Microsoft and ISPs say?

»"The normal stimulant had the opposite effect" - it's Baggers in a few more years. :o)

» Connecting the computer to make it blow up, makes it work. Opposites work. Shame Picard and Geordi never mentioned the two things above to each other - they would have worked it out and we wouldn't have had the "Don't sedate him!!" dumb-ass line.

» Picard can't wait to see the shuttle's log - good thing the Temporal Prime Directive hasn't been invented yet. The picture quality on the log looks like my reception here in Oxford when it's raining, or I shut my window, or Big Brother's on and my aerial is feeling vindictive.

» Oh dear god - the paradox crap has started. I can never nitpick these eps because as soon as they start the "A leads to B leads to C leads to A" stuff my brain implodes. I think they're fun eps though.

»"His emotions are still a jumble". Good Troi, thanks.

» Pulaski's thinking about relieving Picard of command? Janeway got through 6 months of the Year of Hell before that happened - Picard's just crap. :o)

» Hang on, hang on. I thought it was ahead-Picard who shot our-Picard. But then the shot Picard vanished so it must have been the ahead one.

» Oh - and Pulaski made *no* attempt to revive Picard. I know the setting is kill but she couldn't have tried at least? Or when the tricorder says dead, is that thoroughly dead, unlike our current heart-stopped dead?
