No, no. She was sensing Data's joy. Just that, Data was the embodiment of millions of Trek Fans that finally got to see what a Galaxy-Class ship can really do when you drive her like you stole her. In all honesty. TNG crew did steal her but did return her before midnight, lol.

Nice little bit about this is how Geordi says not even his DAUGHTER could do it... like, he know how impossible it is, and he holds his daughter in such high regard.
well remember the new data's more advanced then the old Data mind you the Old data never tried this so who know maybe even the old Data could have done it and since he never tried there was never proof that he could do it
The Data we shoulda gotten a looong time ago!! Poor Brent wanted them to kill him of, because he thought he cant be playing an Android character anymore as he got older. What they shouda down is use the emotions he got in Generations anthe skin he got in First Contact and just turn him into THIS Data like 25 years ago, lol!
I also love the new Data, but whats great is even if we dont get to see more of him, we got to get the closure of Data finally getting to be more human just like he always wanted to be
Yeah... It's amazing to a point where it becomes ridiculous and unbelievable. Why couldn't they have used a ship that was actually designed for maneuvering in such spaces? But no, they actually had to use the Enterprise for it...
@jonasklose6472 Haha, I do remember briefly thinking that as well until I realized it's fucking awesome and totally worth it. Plus, my head canon immediately filled in the blanks. Maybe Geordi installed a few maneuverability upgrades during restoration, and how many MIPS is Data capable of? He most definitely is not your average pilot he can operate that bitch in ways a regular human or alien for that matter could ever dream of etc.
@@JakeSulinjr The thing with me is: Whenever authors do something 'completely awesome' I know they're trying to tap into my subconscious cave man mind that can be fooled with such tricks. And then I start to think. Flashy lights and fast speeds just make me question if this was really possible and necessary from a storytelling perspective. They could have used the Defiant. A ship that can cloak, is heavily armored, had many upgrades and was designed to fly this way because it had enough thrust and a reduced mass even with striped down crew compartments that were shared up to the captain. Just think about the size of the impulse outlets of the Enterprise D compared to the whole ship and then remember the Defiant. The Enterprise D wasn't equipped with another other impulse outlet or any other necessary and visible change and that can't be explained by 'Geordi'. You can't make a speedboat out of an aircraft carrier. The least they could have done is saucer separation which would have been nice to look at, canon and it would have made it easier to fly through the narrow passages.
This was freakin’ AWESOME!!!! The song was perfect! Not only because it’s a classic 60s era rock song, but also it’s the song Zefram Cochrane plays during the test flight of the Phoenix in “Star Trek: First Contact”.
This was extremely satisfying. If you could patch Riker in right after beaming them aboard saying “could you turn that down a little” it would have been icing on the cake.
i Love how the Enterprise D does a “handbrake” stop above them on her own stlye of “come with me if you want to live” it is badass :) mad respect edit: fixed a typo
I like how this moment speaks to Geordi's experience. I thought back to the episode where the ship needed to do some tricky maneuvers but they didn't trust the computer to do it because there needed to be a human element that the computer can't replicate and ultimately I think Picard ended up piloting the ship through the situation. Here he mentions his daughter is extremely talented but even she couldn't do it. This is where Data being computer and now also human kicks in. Now Data has that extra human intuition that allows him to pilot in a way a computer or talented human couldn't.
That was "Booby Trap", season 3 episode 6 when they got stuck in the asteroid field, draining their power. Picard had to use the thrusters to slingshot around a big rock to clear the ship to get power back. Poor Promellian battlecruiser...
also Data trusting his "gut" harkens back to a discussion he and Geordie had in TNG (Season 3, Episode 10, "The Defector") where he has to explain to Data what gut instincts are and why humans sometimes follow that intuition despite it not always being logical
For some reason this goes great with this scene. And good tribute to "First Contact." If only Data hit a button to turn on this song and said, "lets rockn' roll!!!"...it totally could have worked. But, only when the D was showing....after the flying it didnt work. Also a hint of a "Guardians" feel to this clip with the music.
"Why am I sensing enjoyment?" Data finally getting to show the Borg who the far superior synthetic is: "Resistance is futile, and also I can drift a starship."
Brent Spiner is a complete bad ass. He was playing data the way data really would have been. He makes data one of the most powerful characters in the entire series. Every Nuance was perfect. Playing magic carpet ride to this was beautiful.
@@Creasy5678 and the best part if you go back and watch TNG and hear Laforge say not even Data could do it you know he's full of it cause Data did this one and he said the same thing here so he had this bad ass flying ability for the ship for a long time and no one even believed he could do it till now

"Not even my daughter.." Yet you got Data right there.. if there is any being capable its him. I'm surprised it took so much convincing from Data to get everyone else on board. They've seen him in action many times before.
I think that's where Geordi's concern came from. Yes Data could do it, but could the Enterprise computers keep up with him. Buffering would be bad at such a moment.

To think that this Galaxy Class ship, as ridiculously large as it is, is pulling fighter like maneuvers pulling a "space drift" as Data RIPS the E Brake, beams up the Picards (yes im calling them the Picards), and then high tails it out of there while blasting the cube which is many times bigger than the earth and warps outta there is insane!!
That little maneuver above the central chamber is now called the "Data Drift." Because he drited a starship inside a borg cube! I will accept no other names. That is Yune Darrak levels of piloting. Just. *chef's kiss.*
Bastard! See what you made me think up?!! Now you're gonna have kids dropping into neutral at intersections, and try to maneuver with no drive power to the wheels until they get out the other side. Yeah! I just made that shit up, but I think the "Data Drift" will go viral. This is an embryonic TikTok challenge. -- Yo, did you see him data? That was fire.
I absolutely LOVE!! what was done with this whole scene with just the addition of the Steppenwolf soundtrack!! Just as I loved it with the launch of the Phoenix!!. It was just as much fun watching Data get his rocks off & showing not only to to himself, but to Geordi, Deanna, and Beverly what the now FULLY human Data could do with his now totally human confidence in himself & his ability to trust his own ability to make the big 'D' handle like a Porsche on steroids. 5 BIG FREAKIN' STARS!!!!
shame they didn't record the queen screaming like that cause then they could send that as the the response to the Borg when they say resistance is futile🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Data, where in the world did you get the idea for this?" "I watched this movie called 'Star Wars', and this guy called Han Solo was always doing things like this. I figured that if he could do it with the Millennium Falcon, I could do it with the Enterprise."
I was hoping that was the song you meant... :-) Love that "flying fireball" effect with the shields as the Big E comes screaming out of the middle of the explosion...
Darth Vader would be impressed due to being quite the pod-racer back in his youth as a boy. In fact Darth Vader would help Data and the Enterprise fight the Borg due to The Force telling Darth Vader that the Borg are a great threat to everyone including himself. Even the Jedi would team up with Darth Vader and the USS ENTERPRISE 1701-D because The Force would warn the Jedi about the Borg Deanna Troi would get along with Qui-Gon Jinn. Deanna Troi would want to know more about The Force and Qui-Gon Jinn would say these words below to Deanna Troi: "Without the midi-chlorians, life could not exist, and we would have no knowledge of the Force. They continually speak to us, telling us the will of the Force. When you learn to quiet your mind, you'll hear them speaking to you." Qui-Gon Jinn would ask Deanna Troi for a sample of her blood to test her Midi-chlorian count to test if she was Force sensitive or not. Qui-Gon Jinn would fight the Borg due to the Borg causing a disturbance to The Force.
I once saw these two admit that they used to make a game of seeing how many nods they could get into a scene. When they nodded at each other here, I broke up
well this scene works so much better with this over that movie just cause the song sounds like a wild ride and Data sends them on the ride of a lifetime into that cube and shockingly enough Data kills it
The joyful warrior Data is such a wonderful development. And perfectly understandable, even to TNG canon geeks. Mr. Spiner, as always, gift wraps the performance,, and then presents it for our viewing pleasure. The expression on his face as he goes in is literally priceless. Bravo, all!!!
Not for me. Star Trek died with Discovery for me. I can't take a few episodes before I have to quit. Everything of the ethics and the depth is gone. Now it's only about special effects and 'action'. At least the original data died meaning this was at least not done to the original character. Come to think of it, I now think it would have been better if there was a warp core breach in Nemesis at the end.
@@jonasklose6472 yeah Picard rammed the scimitar and some of it broke off and breach engineering causing a warp core breach which why it didn't happen when it always happened by accident in TNG kind of shows you how much it had already changed by Nemesis Already
@@raven4k998 No, I meant a warp core breach of the Enterprise, so the characters would have died in battle and couldn't have been used for this. Bad then I was sad that data died, now I'm glad. RIP For the movies: I always accepted them going away from Star Trek story telling. They were made for mass audiences that maybe heard of Star Trek the first time when they watched the movies. Now, it seems the only thing New Trek resembles a bit are the movies. For me: Star Trek should have just been happy with it's corner and should not have tried to claw it's way out by going generic/Star Wars sci-fi and making the ethics part into an in-your-face style because they don't believe that the target audience of Star Trek can think or reflect on what they saw and it's implications.
@@jonasklose6472 well that star trek was more about the story this new star trek is about the special effects and action nothing more then that it has no science in it even it's just dumb words to fill in that they don't know shit about the star trek tech at all🤣🤣
The famous group that sang this classic song was Steppenwolf they were fantastic if you never heard their other songs you can find all their albums on here. Born to be Wild is their most famous song it was used in the movie Easy Rider.
The queen thought that since both the Enterprise-D and the Enterprise-E was destroyed and the Enterprise-F was compromised She had no clue that the Enterprise-D was back to finish The Borg Threat for sure.
@@Laeadern I agreed with you. Star Trek: Generations was the very FIRST VHS Tape I bought. The crash landing of the Enterprise Saucer Section was like watching a homage to The Jupiter 2 from Lost In Space crashing planetside. Then came the Death of Captain James T. Kirk it was the 3rd time I cried the First Time was death of Captain Spock in 1982 at the age of 18 The Wrath of Khan Second Time 1984 at the age of 20 Tne destruction of the Original NCC-1701 in The Search of Spock. Age 59 Glad The Enterprise D is in the Starfleet Museum.
This song captures the absolute essence of fun and joy I’ve ever seen in a Star Trek episode. This has given me feelings that I haven’t felt in a very long time.

Zefram Cochrane Inventor of the First Space ship with warp drive in the Afterlive:good choice Data!😂👍
As many times as I've seen this clip, this is in my top 5.
2:03 Enterprise "I know the E come to rescue you once, but I've always been your true mistress....now its my turn"
Whoever did this brilliant absolutely brilliant 👌👏👏👏
Docs shooting and Datas flying 😊
Seriously they should have went with this song. I've watched this so many times and it never gets tiresome. :)
Whoever compiled this did a really good job thank you
To think that this Galaxy Class ship, as ridiculously large as it is, is pulling fighter like maneuvers pulling a "space drift" as Data RIPS the E Brake, beams up the Picards (yes im calling them the Picards), and then high tails it out of there while blasting the cube which is many times bigger than the earth and warps outta there is insane!!
This why i say in a trek vs wars in space trek wins
The amazing thing is, Troi was doing at least some of the flying when they ended up over Jack and Jean-Luc...
That little maneuver above the central chamber is now called the "Data Drift." Because he drited a starship inside a borg cube! I will accept no other names. That is Yune Darrak levels of piloting. Just. *chef's kiss.*
Bastard! See what you made me think up?!! Now you're gonna have kids dropping into neutral at intersections, and try to maneuver with no drive power to the wheels until they get out the other side. Yeah! I just made that shit up, but I think the "Data Drift" will go viral. This is an embryonic TikTok challenge.
-- Yo, did you see him data? That was fire.
I absolutely LOVE!! what was done with this whole scene with just the addition of the Steppenwolf soundtrack!! Just as I loved it with the launch of the Phoenix!!. It was just as much fun watching Data get his rocks off & showing not only to to himself, but to Geordi, Deanna, and Beverly what the now FULLY human Data could do with his now totally human confidence in himself & his ability to trust his own ability to make the big 'D' handle like a Porsche on steroids. 5 BIG FREAKIN' STARS!!!!
Hang on🤣
Out freaking standing. 👍
shame they didn't record the queen screaming like that cause then they could send that as the the response to the Borg when they say resistance is futile🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Zephran Cochran would be proud.
at :57, the initial fishtail in to a drift is just frigging sweet.
"Data, where in the world did you get the idea for this?"
"I watched this movie called 'Star Wars', and this guy called Han Solo was always doing things like this. I figured that if he could do it with the Millennium Falcon, I could do it with the Enterprise."
😅 Oh god what a pairing! And it's so befitting, Especially as that's when Data becomes truly human in my eyes.
Bet they wished they had seatbelts
Deanna just did a Rockford J turn with a starship. Now that is classy.
Me: computer play my saving the day song
Enterprise D computer: Acknowledged
This is the edit I didn't know I needed for this scene, but now can't live without it.
the BEST part of that whole scene is Diana reaction to Data enjoying himself flying like no one has flown before ...
Love the "First Contact' homage...but...
When i saw this the first time, "thunderstruck" by AC/DC went through my head.
"I Can't Drive 55" by Sammy Hagar
Deanna Troi: "Why am I sensing 'enjoyment'?"
Me: "From Data or from everyone of us watching that scene?"
No kidding, talk about breaking the fourth wall lol. I sure as hell was feeling enjoyment 😂
"Let's rock n' roll!"
Quoted by Zefram Cochrane in Star Trek First Contact
"And you people, you're all astronauts, on some kind of star trek."
Great First Contact reference! Let’s rock and roll!
I love the tip of the hat to Star Trek First Contact!
This is the way I choose to remember it actually happening.
I was hoping that was the song you meant... :-) Love that "flying fireball" effect with the shields as the Big E comes screaming out of the middle of the explosion...
Not seen each other for decades, all unsure. Data and Geordie make eye contact. Data nods. Nuff said! Let's do it!
Data flying a multi million ton spacecraft like an f16. I’m more impressed that it handles that well😂
Darth Vader would be impressed due to being quite the pod-racer back in his youth as a boy.
In fact Darth Vader would help Data and the Enterprise fight the Borg due to The Force telling Darth Vader that the Borg are a great threat to everyone including himself.
Even the Jedi would team up with Darth Vader and the USS ENTERPRISE 1701-D because The Force would warn the Jedi about the Borg
Deanna Troi would get along with Qui-Gon Jinn.
Deanna Troi would want to know more about The Force and Qui-Gon Jinn would say these words below to Deanna Troi:
"Without the midi-chlorians, life could not exist, and we would have no knowledge of the Force. They continually speak to us, telling us the will of the Force. When you learn to quiet your mind, you'll hear them speaking to you."
Qui-Gon Jinn would ask Deanna Troi for a sample of her blood to test her Midi-chlorian count to test if she was Force sensitive or not.
Qui-Gon Jinn would fight the Borg due to the Borg causing a disturbance to The Force.
Producers "hey we need a final ship showdown any ideas?" Brent spiner....."data does the star wars trench run."
I love how geordi equates his daughter to...a computer. Boy, he never shook that relationship he had with the holodeck Leah Brahms did he?
You did great with the song dub. Just like First Contact, it rocked. Thanks.
Damn Dr. Crusher is crushing it at Tactical
Thank you to who made this! Such fitting background music. 😎
I once saw these two admit that they used to make a game of seeing how many nods they could get into a scene. When they nodded at each other here, I broke up
That song brought me right back to the First Contact movie.
well this scene works so much better with this over that movie just cause the song sounds like a wild ride and Data sends them on the ride of a lifetime into that cube and shockingly enough Data kills it
It felt like there was meant to be a song here. This confirms it
John Kay and Steppenwolf rock even through the Star Trek universe!
Zephrin Cocren approved his music selection
You mean Zefram Cochrane
@@BrentHarmon yeah him too
That drifting parking rescue stop 5kms overhead is awesome
This music! Basically how it SHOULD HAVE BEEN!
The joyful warrior Data is such a wonderful development. And perfectly understandable, even to TNG canon geeks.
Mr. Spiner, as always, gift wraps the performance,, and then presents it for our viewing pleasure. The expression on his face as he goes in is literally priceless.
Bravo, all!!!
Hang on🤣
Not for me. Star Trek died with Discovery for me. I can't take a few episodes before I have to quit. Everything of the ethics and the depth is gone. Now it's only about special effects and 'action'.
At least the original data died meaning this was at least not done to the original character. Come to think of it, I now think it would have been better if there was a warp core breach in Nemesis at the end.
@@jonasklose6472 yeah Picard rammed the scimitar and some of it broke off and breach engineering causing a warp core breach which why it didn't happen when it always happened by accident in TNG kind of shows you how much it had already changed by Nemesis Already
@@raven4k998
No, I meant a warp core breach of the Enterprise, so the characters would have died in battle and couldn't have been used for this. Bad then I was sad that data died, now I'm glad. RIP
For the movies: I always accepted them going away from Star Trek story telling. They were made for mass audiences that maybe heard of Star Trek the first time when they watched the movies. Now, it seems the only thing New Trek resembles a bit are the movies. For me: Star Trek should have just been happy with it's corner and should not have tried to claw it's way out by going generic/Star Wars sci-fi and making the ethics part into an in-your-face style because they don't believe that the target audience of Star Trek can think or reflect on what they saw and it's implications.
@@jonasklose6472 well that star trek was more about the story this new star trek is about the special effects and action nothing more then that it has no science in it even it's just dumb words to fill in that they don't know shit about the star trek tech at all🤣🤣
You know Brent Spiner has wanted to do something like that for decades.
1:13 After she said that & DATA smiling so priceless LMAO!
They’re forgetting that Data is a supercomputer.
I love how the Borg build their ship with crevices large enough for a 2100 foot long and 1500 foot wide ship to just fly through.
Try to peel the grin off my face! Great nod to my fav scene from First Contact.
I'd love to see Tom Paris, Geordie's daughter, and Data have a maneuver off.
Zefram Cochrane would approve.
I've been so disappointed it Magic Carpet Ride wasn't used for this video
Whoever made this, I love you.
I hatte hin. This ist not star trek, thats star wars rubbish
Awesome video, I wish they would have used this song in the episode, it fits so well!
And it would have been a call back to First Contact. Perfect.
Star Trek + Guardians of the Galaxy remix.
Zef would have shat himself at this level of piloting
The famous group that sang this classic song was Steppenwolf they were fantastic if you never heard their other songs you can find all their albums on here. Born to be Wild is their most famous song it was used in the movie Easy Rider.
The Queen never saw that coming. The D just goes in phasers and torpedoes blazing to stomp some borg and magic Carpet Ride fits so damn well.
The queen thought that since both the Enterprise-D and the Enterprise-E was destroyed and the Enterprise-F was compromised She had no clue that the Enterprise-D was back to finish The Borg Threat for sure.
@@marcusjustice6165 I grew up with the D. It didn't get a proper sendoff in Generations so this was nice.
@@Laeadern I agreed with you. Star Trek: Generations was the very FIRST VHS Tape I bought. The crash landing of the Enterprise Saucer Section was like watching a homage to The Jupiter 2 from Lost In Space crashing planetside. Then came the Death of Captain James T. Kirk it was the 3rd time I cried the First Time was death of Captain Spock in 1982 at the age of 18 The Wrath of Khan Second Time 1984 at the age of 20 Tne destruction of the Original NCC-1701 in The Search of Spock. Age 59 Glad The Enterprise D is in the Starfleet Museum.
Ahh steppenwolf great choice!!
Brent spiner is a national treasure!
That "Please Trust me!" is so pleading, almost like he thinks they'd definitely have said go for it if he was still just the android from TNG
This song captures the absolute essence of fun and joy I’ve ever seen in a Star Trek episode. This has given me feelings that I haven’t felt in a very long time.
Let History never forget the name... Enterprise.
This is the Lengendary status the crew deserves
Legends like this never die
Thanks for the video.
