What areas of study were considered to be in the science division? Would social sciences be part of the sciences division?

oh, wow, these special effects were cutting edge once now I see what Galaxy Quest was a parody of Data just looks like he's relaxing in that chair instead of actually piloting the ship Okay, not sure why Picard has a telepath on staff--didn't think this was Babylon 5--but okay, sure, cool.

*Q appears out of nowhere*

gay very gay do the writers want me to think he's gay? why else would an alien entity dress as a 16th-century ship captain? Is he... flirting with Picard? Yup, definitely flirting. I ship it.

*Q keeps changing costumes* *Q plays cat and mouse games with Picard* You're not really doing anything to change my mind here, writers.

*Data trying to get out of the trial* *Data using his recording function to get Q to eat his own words* YOU'RE DOING AMAZING SWEETIE.

*Tasha Yar tries to jump a crowd to get at Q* we stan a legend

we also stan that 137-year old admiral who hates being beamed up and calls Vulcans "annoying". #LIFE GOALS.

so far, all the crew seems okay... ...oops, never mind, I hate Riker. Riker, please stop being a creep, Dr. Crusher is not into you.

hahaha, Picard and Riker have a conversation that is basically just lampshading Kirk for running off to have adventures instead of staying aboard ship like captains are supposed to, lol.

I'm with Picard on this one: why is there a literal CHILD on board?

oh, hahahaha, the telepath is Riker's ex and she's talking in his mind SUPER AWKWARD lol.

GEORDI LAFORGE!!!! <3<3<3<3!!

Data, you are amazing, please don't let Riker's stupid prejudices and nicknames for you get you down. I just want to punch Riker in the face ALL THE TIME. Is there a reason Deana Troi is wearing a miniskirt when Tasha is wearing pants? Is there no standard uniform for women, or is Deana not part of the ship's hierarchy? She's got a Starfleet emblem, but her title is "Counselor"

that asshole Riker tells Troi to open her mind when she's uncomfortable doing so and she does it and then falls to her knees sobbing with pain I HATE THIS ASSHOLE (this is even worse when I remember THEY USED TO DATE AAAAAHHHHH). And then he has to rush to the rescue *sigh*

oh no Dr. Crusher and Picard Had A Thing, too, didn't they??? I SEE THAT SIGNIFICANT HEADNOD OF MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING ABOUT THE PAST.

LOOK AT PICARD SOFTENING AT WESLEY LIKE EVERYONE ELSE ON THIS SHIP. D'aww.  

RIKER PULLS RANK ON TROI WHEN SHE CAUTIONS HIM, FUCK I HATE THIS DUDE. (Her title is “Lieutenant” here... Lieutenant Counselor?) the old city looks like Tatooine, lol

Tasha's bench looks so ergonomically uncomfortable if she's going to be using it while standing WHYYY love how Data moves in a way that doesn't look quite human The fact that Q approves of Riker just makes me hate him more. Q calling Picard "mon capitaine", I just... FLIRTING. HE'S FLIRTING. Picard is such an awkward turtle with Dr. Crusher LMAO. is it... yes, it is... A SPACE JELLYFISH? HECK YEAH. Q is such a sore loser and such a DRAMATIC ASSHOLE. and so clearly flirting with Picard
