Something funny about how formally Picard says "we must hurry over or we'll miss Commander Riker's party." It has an unspoken "and that's an order"

I wish I could suspend my disbelief but I'm pretty sure that planet with the gases did have a secret base and this is a dream they're putting in Riker's head for some reason.

I don't remember the episode but maybe it's more "Riker can look that up with his credentials, but doesn't know it automatically."

Episode over. I still can't remember if I was spoiled, maybe I've just seen this plot done enough that I have an advantage over the 1990 viewers. I guess I didn't figure out the double layer until it dropped serious hints but there wasn't really any way to.

I also just realized how rear end that set design was. It's all painted wooden blocks.The chair is a wooden kitchen chair with triangles glued to the back and a flexible pool type hose glued around it.

I can only imagine how lovely it looks in HD... :stare:

The 'shut your mouth as in stop talking' scenes is one of my favorites of the entire series. It's pretty bad-rear end, but I think Riker has enough respect for Picard that he'd never have said that if any doubt was in his mind that something was up.

Trip report: DS9 season 4, episode 6 "Starship Down"

If that force field gave out under the pressure of 9 million space units, the gas giant's atmosphere wouldn't waft into the ship like a smoke machine. Just sayin'. Also I think the Defiant is the most-rebuilt ship in the fleet by a large margin, even more than the Enterprise. Seems like every time they take it on a mission, it gets severely damaged.

Also good to know I can pick out James Cromwell in 3 seconds even under heavy alien makeup.

Episode 7 "Little Green Men"

Not bad for a time travel episode. I remembered one line from watching it originally: "They irradiated their own planet!?" I just looked up the actress for the nurse because I couldn't place where I remembered her from and, holy crap, it's Alyson Veil from Nowhere Man. Now that brings back memories.
