Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAfter several unsuccessful attempts by director Les Landau to film Q's nude scene without forcing the actor to actually be naked, a frustrated John de Lancie finally asked anyone offended by nudity to leave, stripped down, and filmed the scene in one take.
- GoofsThe crew attempt to adjust the moon's orbit at perigee (closest approach). If you are attempting to adjust the altitude of a body's perigee (in this case to avoid a collision with the planet), the best time to do it is to wait until it reaches apogee. This will change the elevation of perigee the most with the least amount of energy. Changing a body's velocity at perigee only changes the elevation of apogee and does nothing to change its perigee. If they were trying to avoid a collision, the crew chose the worst time to do it.
- Quotes
Capt. Picard: Return that moon to its orbit.
Q: I have no powers! Q the ordinary.
Capt. Picard: Q the liar! Q the misanthrope!
Q: Q the miserable, Q the desperate! What must I do to convince you people?
Lieutenant Worf: Die.
Q: Oh, very clever, Worf. Eat any good books lately?

Featured review
Viva la Q
Every time Q shows up, is a little better than the last. The first episode of the series with Q, I thought he was obnoxious and just another villain; but as time goes on, he's evolved into one of the best characters in the series. Maybe it's just John de Lancie, but his character seems better written than anyone else. The stories he's in are more interesting, they're humorous, the dialog is better; everyone just seems more animated and entertaining. My favorite characters are Worf, Data, Geordi, Guinan, Picard and Q, and I am eternally thankful for any episode where Wesley and his Mother are absent; I find both of them extremely annoying. Riker is tolerable, sometimes better than others, and I guess Troi is just there for eye candy? She honestly doesn't seem to serve any purpose, and her character is stilted, wooden, inconsistent and pretty much useless. Looking forward to more Q!
