Hide and Q.

STTNG

Star Trek The Next Generation Season One

Why don't they have any hospital facility on the colony? If you're going to colonise a planet, shouldn't you be at least a little prepared for emergencies?

When the drinks appeared in their hands (courtesy of Q Catering) where did Tasha's phaser go? Just a few moments before, she had it in her right hand and trained on Q. The drink, however, materialises in her right hand and there is no sign of her phaser. Would she have put it away? Not very likely knowing our Tasha, and anyway Worf still has his out, which is why (I assume) his drink appears in his left hand, which is free.

A very uneven show, this. Within minutes, you have the two principal protagonists bellowing Shakespeare at each other (not an occurrence one routinely views on science fiction shows) and then you cut away to a truly tacky downmarket (that means low rent for any Americans out there) little set. A shame things couldn't have been kept on more of an even keel.

Beverly cradles the dead kid in her arms. Why? She's a doctor, she must have seen umpteen dead kids.

"I should never have made that agreement with you" says Riker to Picard. Will, son, you have the power of Q. You can unmake the agreement, dumb-dumb.

Er, where was Troi during all of this?
