“My great-grandfather was once bitten by a rattlesnake. After three days of intense pain, the snake died.”
Hooray! Clip show! 
I consider this the worst Trek episode. The Enterprise finale is a close second, followed by the Voyager episode Threshold.
Do actors get paid if they are shown in a clip show? Probably not since clip shows are done to save money.
“I hope these are the right coordinates.”
Good one, O’brien.
I think they do, but at a lower rate, like royalties.
Not filming new scenes, no new sets, etc. save most of the money, methinks.
“The strangest feeling. My leg just went dead.”
Just in time, once you got back to the ship.
Thanks Pulaski. I hope it’s not contagious.
“Medical override is authorized.”
Um. Unknown microbes. Haven’t you learned your lesson with those, Pulaski?
Then, a bunch of folks got paid!!
Oh SNAP!!
Data just used a contraction!!
“I’m always careful.”
“I’m surprised they don’t happen more often.”
Hmmm, good line. Riker getting all reflective. He senses the end.
Nowadays, I think people would guess Riker was gonna die.
“Oh, I can kill it. But not without destroying the nerves it’s inhabiting.”
So, um, why can’t you do that?
They regenerate nerves all the time.
Not to mention, why can’t they use the de-geriatricizing technique with the transporter?
Pulaski is gonna stimulate Riker. IYKWIM.
Did he really? I didn’t even notice.
Way to go, Troi. He was fine until you got there.
Just like driving the ship. You’re a menace.
Does beard-less Riker get a lesser check?
Yeah and I confirmed it with Memory Alpha.
When Data and La Forge are on the planet, Data uses a contraction when he says “I’m always careful.”
geek high-five
Encounter at Farpoint Data is more like Spiner than Data. He gets better.
Yeah, Wes. I’m rolling my eyes also. :rolleyes:
