    Lessons - s6e19

    The Fish and the Rocks! A quiet episode, until it's not. Picard meets a pianist, and she opens up his musician side as well as his heart. Too bad she is under his direct command. She plays the keys and he plays the flute in the sexiest part of the starship, the Jeffries Tubes! There are dolphins, there are non-stop HR violations, there is exquisite chest hair. This is a fantastic episode and we hope you enjoy it. Share and enjoy!

    Starship Mine - s6e18

    "The Enterprise is mine!" says Picard when he goes back for his saddle(!) No one grows in this one, including our panel, but that's just perfect for a mélange of 80s action movie moments. Due for a scan for waste particles associated with the warp engines, the Enterprise bridge crew must go to a reception held by Hutch, er, Commander Calvin Hutchinson. Data wants to emulate the art of small talk, but then verges into the actually interesting conversation around interior design and scientific facts about planets. Picard leaves the reception to grab the saddle he apparently always has with him, and discovers Tuvok and crew dissembling the ship. The captain trapped on his ship with ne'er-do-wells must make arrows and set up ambushes like he's John McClane Rambo. It's a fun one, with great stunts and an honest-to-god reference to Mr. f****n' Ed. No joke.

    Birthright, part 2 - s6e17

    Worf shines in this episode by teaching the town to dance, to hunt, and to sing. Michael Dorn is a true triple threat! The younger generation of prisoners don't even know they are in prison. The much younger lady he saw washing in the previous episode shows Worf the artifacts of an ancient time. The Romulan leader Tokath is generally nice - he even married one of his Klingon prisoners! - but he's pushed to the limit by Worf's presence. Worf kisses a ROMULAN on the mouth, but it's OK. She's half his age. It's time for the firing squad, until Toq arrives dressed in armor and all become Spartacus. Tokath relents, and Worf lies to Picard when he gets rescued. It's cool now.

    Birthright, part 1 - s6e16

    B. Dave Walters returns! We jump into a banger of a two-parter as Deep Space 9 takes center stage. Kind of. On the Promenade, Worf meets Mr. James Cameron, er, Cromwell, dressed up like a naked mole rat named Shrek (no, really) who says Worf's father is still alive. Mogh would be proud of his son breaking a glass table before donning a black caper suit and heading to the jungle to beat up some old people and look at naked lady Klingons. Meanwhile, Dr. Bashir assists Data in accessing his trippy visions and Dr. Noonien Sungh's proclamation that "I Am a Bird." Great to have B. Dave back in the saddle to discuss left-handedness, fake martial arts, and the connection to fatherhood we all have.

    Tapestry - s6e15

    We've come to see the tapestries! Q returns in an episode that doesn't have Q in the title, and we are pissed about that. Good thing, Erik has got us covered in that department. We start in the media-est of res-es, with Picard injured and rushed into sick bay. He goes into the light and a washed out Q tells him what's up. He's dead, because of the fight he had with the Nausicaans when he was a slick punk right out of the academy. He gets slapped in the face and wham bang! There we are - gone all the way back in time like Marty and Doc. Except this time, it's a singing telegram for Jon Luck Pickerd from the John Delancie Express.

    Face of the Enemy - s6e14

    Counselor Troi wakes up as a Romulan and must immediately become badass or die. You see, she's been benevolently kidnapped by a Romulan friend of Spock's ... kind of. Meanwhile on the Enterprise, a traitor of the Federation who had defected to Romulus, comes back to deliver a message. They've got to go to some coordinates for a very important delivery. Troi verbally duels with Commander Toreth of the Romulan ship, and together they slay Bechdel in a Test of Tense Space Combat. Troi's best episode, which is something to celebrate.

    Acquiel - s6e13

    The collective sigh of rut roh when Geordi sees Acquiel for the first time ... in that WIG! It's a murder mystery unlike you've ever seen before with a shape-shifting body-snatching thing eating dogs and taking names. The Klingons are here and Gowron's name gets thrown around, which is a nice touch. Levar Burton has to wrestle with a tough script and go to extremes while the guest star has a hard time finding the chemistry. All in all, no one comes out looking great in this one, not even Riker telling Geordi to cool it down a little.

    Ship in a Bottle - s6e12

    We go where no one has gone before --- into a cube! Bonnie Gordon joins the gang to discuss the Star Trek episode that launched a thousand holodeck programs. Moriarty returns from the clutches of Dr. Pulaski to demand Barclay take him to the Captain. You see, the fictional foil to Sherlock was locked in limbo for nary four seasons. Flimflammery and tomfoolery abound as left-handed people ruin all the double-bluffing by Edward P. Hindenburg. Don't worry - this is one of Re:Engage's most musical episodes thanks in no small part to the awesomeness of a Library Bard. Check out Star Trek: Prodigy and hear our guest Bonnie Gordon go even deeper into Trek lore. In the meantime, a planet crashes into the sun.
