The power of this episode is that everyone swaps places. Captain becomes Counsellor, Counsellor becomes Captain, Doctor becomes Engineer, Chief becomes Doctor.
Riker becomes useful.

My wife used to say I was a nerd for watching Star Trek, that it was a dorky show. One day, she decided to sit down and watch it with me, and it just so happened to be the fan-favorite episode Paula was referring to. She's been a fan ever since.
Funny thing is, a lot of people tend to focus on spaceships, phasers and tech so star trek gets a bad rep for being a really nerdy show. But half the series isn't even about tech or math. Especially stuff like DS9. I am glad people today are more open to science fiction series in popular media.
What I love about this episode is that each character is faced with something they're not sure how to handle: Troi has never had to be a commander, Picard is really awkward with kids, Worf is *not* a midwife, etc....
There's also a funny callback to the Worf and Keiko scene in DS9. One of my favorite moments from that series.
Very favorite and *rewatchable* episode. It’s just.. inspiring to see how well trained, disciplined, and coordinated the crew all are in such a situation, as well as how well each of them deal with problems outside their areas of specialization, make difficult command decisions like Troi does, and persuade people who aren’t trained crew, even little kids, to work together like Picard does.
I also love Riker's smile after the girl answers to Number One. It's like he's saying, "Oh you ARE going to tell me this story." LOL
The real disaster is that this is the episode that spawned the Internets most infamous star trek fan fiction ever. The "Marissa stories" are legendary bad and hilarious in their story of the girl from this episode becoming Starfleets youngest captain (by the age of 16) along with a crew that age that are all somehow all that young but married to one another (Marissa herself celebrating her wedding by slaughtering Romulans) and then there's the chapter where the pope appears in his pope mobile to save the universe
@@excessmaterial if I recall there's also something about her psychologically torturing her crew with a strawberry fetish? And I'm not making this up... A time travel romance between Admiral Wesley Crusher and President Chelsea Clinton
@@excessmaterial from a review I found online "In his first story, he brings back twelve year-old "Marrissa" Flores. In the story, she is placed in command of the Enterprise while the major characters are on a mission. She and her crew of pre-teens single-handedly defeat a threat to the Federation. Unfortunately, her parents perished during the other mission, so Jean-Luc Picard adopts her, raising her as his daughter. Later, she discovers her father was crown prince of an alien world, making her a Princess. Of course, as she continues to save the Federation, Star Fleet decides to place her on the command fast track, placing her into command of her own starship at the ripe old age of sixteen.
After that, things get a bit wacky"
Those stories are AMAZING in a Tommy Wiseau/Neil Breen sort of way where you wonder if the author isn’t actually an alien creature in a human suit.
Not only is it a great take on the classic Irwin Allen disaster films but most of the main characters were put in positions that were not to their strengths. Picard starts off in the pilot saying to Riker that he's not a family man and, 5 seasons later, he bonds with those 3 kids. So many great moments from all the main cast.🖖
There was a Sci-Fi convention here in Denver when the show was still airing, and Patrick was the star guest. They set up two microphones, one down each side of the hall, for people to ask him questions. In one of the lines was a Dad holding a little boy (maybe 5 to 8?). When it was their turn, Dad lowered the mic, and the little boy said something like "at the start of the show, you said you didn't like kids. Do you like kids more, now?"
Patrick smiled, and rather than answer the question he jumped down off the dias, walked over, winked at the dad, and lifted the boy up like he was his own son. Patrick said "Captain Picard has learned to love children as the show has gone on, and as for me, I have a son of my own. He's a bit bigger than you, though. I think think this young man deserves a round of applause for being very brave and asking the question himself, don't you?" and we all clapped. Patrick then whispered something to the Dad as he handed the boy back to him. I think they got some nice photos and an autograph.
So fun fact about this particular episode! This episode was originally based on a fan script and the original fan script was written by none other than my old high school Video Production teacher, Mr. Scorza!! I've honestly probably rewatched this episode more than any other TNG episode as a result as that fact has always filled my trekkie heart with pride. My old high school friends and I have watched this together recently and we all collectively cheer every time Mr. Scorza's name shows up in the story credit at the beginning! You guys are some of my favorite reactors so I'm glad you guys love this episode as much as I do albeit for different reasons haha!
that's awesome! its a friggin classic
One of my favorite episodes, everybody gets a moment to shine here
The dark fire will not avail you!
I believe I've read in a few places that Ensign Ro was created and styled to be the Bajoran on DS9, but the actress didn't wish to commit to a full-time gig, so Nana Visitor got the nod.
not gonna lie, that was probably the best thing to have happened. Nana was pretty good on DS9...
Never has a TV episode title lived up to its promise like this one.
I was around the age these kids were when this episode came out, so I really loved this episode. The idea of being stuck in a turboshaft with Captain Picard at that age seemed like the coolest thing ever. I also really enjoyed the other stories. The whole thing with surviving vacuum, with Data's head being removed and still operating, and the dynamic on the bridge were all great.
In a weird sort of way this episode also marks the beginning of some real continuity on the series. Yeah, we had the Borg show up again, before, and we had Sela pop up a couple times, but with this episode there starts to be a lot more continuity between episodes on much smaller stuff, like Troi's professional development, Ensign Ro adapting to life on the Enterprise, and Keiko and Miles O'Brien having a kid. And honestly I don't think we would've gotten an episode like 7x15 if not for this episode either.
Ensign Ro = most relatable reaction as if to say "Senior officer? She doesn't even have a real uniform. This IS a disaster"
I think this episode does a lot of great things! The one thing that I have a problem with is that Geordi and Dr. Crusher inhale before decompressing. In actually, you'd want to exhale beforehand to prevent your lungs from bursting immediately, which I think makes things a little more intense as they'd have to go longer without a breath of air.
Other than that, I love the insight we get into Ro's character. I like that this episode forces Troi to grow more than most Troi-centric episodes, including the callback to a Troi episode "The Loss". I love the comedy of Worf and Keiko. I think it's great that we have Picard face his greatest fear: children. I enjoy Data's head being carried around. Definitely a great bottle episode that shows how much creativity they have at this point in season 5 (one of the show's strongest seasons).
And this is such a long setup on the "Now?" line Worf gets down the road. lol.
Picard's so endearing with the kids. And then they will all promptly court martialed for mutiny after the episode ended.
I heard in DS9 when it's announced Keiko will have another baby Worf starts loudly planning how he will be away on leave
Another episode I've been looking forward to seeing you react to. I've always loved this one, both for the action and getting to see each of the characters in completely different situations. I think it's cool seeing Troi in command for once. Two of my favourite comedy moments are with Worf and Data. Gotta love Worf's line of "You may now give birth." But it always makes me laugh in that part when Riker's trying to operate Data's head and practically causes Data to have a stroke ("That is NOT the correct port, Commander!").
In universe, the bridge problem was really interesting. You had a chief petty officer who knows every system in the ship forwards and backwards An ensign who technically outranks him but is borderline immature. An officer who outranks them both lacks the technical knowledge but has the emotional intelligence to take command and make decisions.
They couldn't take Data's head off first. His body doesn't have a wifi receiver and it's too heavy for Riker to move.
I love the later callback to this episode on DS9.
Quark: "Did you hear? Keiko is going to have another baby."
Worf: "NOW?"
(Couples reproduce. I don't feel like that's a major spoiler.)
czcams.com/video/ecx9GUtqb1E/video.html
And Paula spoiled Katrina on the fact that Worf would be in DS9, too...
I LOVE how you discover the ONLY thing that SCARES Worf, son of Mohg! (a pregnant Keiko)
I also love how you can just TELL he was thinking of "getting away" before the baby comes (before he says anything)!
"I'm afraid I will be away from the station around that time. . . . . .visiting my parents. . . . .on Earth."
@@sharkdentures3247 Spoilers below
"I am Worf, son of Mogh, House of Martok, son of Sergei, House of Rozhenko, bane to the Duras Family, slayer of Gowron, midwife to Keiko O'Briein. I have made some chamomile tea. Do you take sugar?"
I mean, you are making this comment for the specific purpose of spoiling a joke - surely you would agree worf's delivery was of great comedic value - but s'all good.
Last season you talked at length about Chad Allen's guest appearance in "Suddenly Human", as you liked that actor's regular role of Matthew Cooper in "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman", so I was wondering if you would mention that Erika Flores was in this episode (as Marissa, the oldest child in the turbo-lift with Picard). She played Colleen Cooper, Chad Allen's character's younger sister, in the early seasons of "Dr. Quinn", though she later left the show and Jessica Bowman took over playing Collen.
It also makes we wonder if we will ever see Shawn Toovey in Star Trek, after he played youngest brother Brian Cooper in "Dr. Quinn".
Okay, if you're ever about to go into vacuum, hyperventilate first, then do NOT hold your breath, that causes issues. Other than that, this was a fun episode, even though in the Navy, Ro would have been in command, not Troi... either way, it would be wise to do what Deanna did, which is immediately lean on the Senior Chief for suggestions.
They needed some Beltalowda on the ship, for sure; they know how to improvise and deal with a vacuum. (Not-so-subtle plug for the show that I think the Gallifrey Gals would love...)
Yeah in a situation like this you listen to Chief O'Brien. He's got the experience and the technical expertise in all the ship's systems. An officer is just there to really just figure out the strategic priorities and make sure the manpower is being properly allocated.
I can't remember if there was a bit in DS9 where Worf got to babysit one of Keiko's kids.... Molly might have grown up by then, so it was probably Yoshi.
I seem to remember either Worf or Dax singing a Klingon lullaby to them, and the baby just dozing straight off.
When he found out Keiko was pregnant with Yoshi, Worf freaked out. After Yoshi was born, just being in Worf's presence calmed Yoshi down.
gong-gong-gong!
This episode introduces the idea that kids would be amused by seeing a laughing Vulcan with his dog.
And why not?
I was 11 when this episode came out and I loved it. I remember having a crush on Marissa.
This is one of so many absolute best episodes of Star Trek, ever! I love the different teams meeting different challenges and the character growth, for so many characters, within a single episode is insane!!!
Data’s body is very heavy, so Riker might have had a lot of trouble moving it, especially moving it safely in a way to avoid himself being electrocuted and dying if he had removed Data’s head prior to cutting the current! And Data then could no longer have helped him... At least, that is the only explanation my head canon came up with. 😜
Heh, you said head canon!
One of the things I've always liked about this episode is how it quietly legitimizes all those derelict and missing starfleet vessels we run into when the plot demands it. Because space is a dangerous place, and when something like this can come out of nowhere and almost wreck the ENTERPRISE... well it's no wonder there's a bunch of them out there that didn't make it.
The series is great in how frequently it can throw out the traditional good vs evil plot structure and you don’t always know who or what the actual antagonist will be. Like in the previous ep when it seems like it’s the crystalline entity (though it kind of is for a while), or in Darmok when it seems like it’s the Tamarians.
What I learned most from this show is that, although you may have your own particular adversarial individuals or groups working against you, your first and greatest obstacle is almost always your lack of understanding of the situation. Life is about how you proceed when you're only capable of operating on limited information.
Love you guys!
I just don't see how one can argue an order of greatness for Seasons 3, 4 & 5. They all have a handful of GREAT, episodes, a handful of really good ones, and a handful of average episodes .I'd say one has to acknowledge Seasons 3, 4 & 5 are equal. ...In any case, Love the reactions, desperately wish CZcams would let you post more of each show in the videos, but I understand copyright will get you blocked (still crying over not seeing the reaction to "Family.")
some time ago I found some bloopers from star trek , to my surprise Word and Riker are actually the most funny guys. You should see them after the end of the series. THere are some really funny scenes.
Worf: I have no fear.
Miles: Keiko is pregnant!
Worf: I have one fear.
Two seasons of TNG and 4 seasons of DS9 later, Worf is still terrified.
I just noticed there's a drawing of an Odyssey class in the lower left corner!
Since Picard designated two number ones, I believe that Star Fleet protocols dictate that they settle the matter via hand-to-hand combat. Might be Klingon. Who's to say?
Andorian way is ze best.
What amaze me more is the fact they bring families and kids on this ship, knowing they will meet many dangers and impossible hard tasks long the way.
It did lead to some interesting episodes at times, but yeah, doesn't really make any sense. Roddenberry was kind of a nutjob about TNG. He really wanted a post-conflict utopia where all the problems were philosophical. His plan wasn't even to have a bridge on the ship, it was basically just going to be the conference room, with everyone sitting around talking the whole time, then when everyone agreed with the most persuasive philosophical argument, they'd just tell the computer to do whatever. Thankfully he got talked out of it. I can't imagine anything more boring.
@@fakecubed The show needed *more* Roddenberry; later TNG and of course DS9 as a whole devolved into war, war and more war.
The whole thing about future humanity is that they're prepared to explore the unknown and made of sterner stuff than anyone today.
It's been a long time since I've seen this one. Long enough that I'd forgotten some of these plot lines were in the same episode.
Also, there's a storyline in this episode that has me looking forward to some far off day when The Gallifrey Gals are hopefully watching a subsequent Start Trek series.
This was actually the first episode I had seen with Ensign Ro because I had missed her first one.
I am looking forward to episode 19 of this season.
This episodes ends up being one of the most important episodes to the franchise. So many throwbacks in the years to come.
LOL Paula...i always like to hold my breath along with movie or TV characters. I swear, Spike Spiegel near made me psss out, once.
Eventually the question gets asked “who is more attractive, Beverly or Dianna?” I answer “Ro”
There are certainly a couple of faults with this episode, but it's still in my top 10 episodes of _all_ of Trek, in fact, a few episodes of TNG's season 5 are in that group.
One important thing they got wrong in possibly my favourite scene in this episode: if you find yourself in a decompressing cargo bay (or any formerly pressurized area), absolutely _DO_ exhale. You do _not_ want to try to hold back an atmosphere's worth of pressure with your larynx. Exhaling into vacuum you'll have about 30 seconds of useful consciousness to do what you need to do to repressurize the bay, and about 30 more of unconsciousness before brain damage sets in. Maybe longer if you're an experienced freediver. Also it would probably be a good idea to close your eyes if you can, they probably won't be much use in that situation anyway as all the liquid from their surface will simultaneously boil and begin to freeze making it difficult to see. You might be able to get away with a few anti-blinks (opening your eyes for a few milliseconds) to get your bearings or to see which button to hit on the panel.
I love this episode
Also after star trek tng you should do star trek deep space 9 which is my favorite trek series, and I don't think I have ever seen someone react to it before.
I seen a couple channel react to DS9. Unfortunately the one I was watching was moving and some issues came up with the move so their channel haven't had any recent uploads for a while
@@JoshHowardChannel Pop Pop Fizz? Yeah... I also really hope Katrina and Paula, if they decide to do it, watch it concurrently with Seasons 6 & 7, as they aired, as I hear many fans talk about watching one series, then the other, while I've found going back and forth so much richer of an experience.
@@bustedsim Pop sizzle Fizz yeah that's the one
I was never a fan of DS9. It felt unpleasant and grimy.
Why did I immediately think of Little Debbie at the start of this video?
04:22 Deanna's first time being in a position of Command, and the catalyst for her aspiring to become a Duty Officer.
Worf-"You CAN'T"!!
I love this episode.... But it drives me insane that they gave Crusher, a MD and CMO, a line telling Geordi to NOT exhale in a vacuum. ....Which is the exact opposite of what you should do if about to be exposed to hard vacuum, unless you want your lungs to rupture. ....How is "Event Horizon," of all things, a horror movie about a ship going to a hell dimension and getting possessed, the only thing that I can think of that ever got that right?
Titan AE got it right too.
This is my favourite Season t episode, hands down.....& there was a lot of competition this season.
I am always amazed by how fast CBS locks an episode down. I guess they know your schedule. Hey CBS everyone watching has seen these episodes multiple times.
This was a great bottle episode ship disaster movie with the characters having to take on roles they were not comfortable with. And the two Number Ones at the end was such a nice touch. :)
Here's what I've always not understood from this episode. It is established that the artificial gravity is created by plates in the floors. Because of that, why are the lift shafts not zero gravity?
I understand why for production reasons, but it would be easier in-universe.
because technically each "shaft" is actually a stack of "deck sections".
the _deck_ gets the gravity plating.... the shaft is just a space for the lift to pass though.
as a deck section, the shaft has service lines running around it as well, and those are loaded.
I believe there's at least one episode where a deck is unreachable, so the lift stops several decks above it, and the characters go down via a service tube.
the lift still works, it just won't go where there's no power, still within the same shaft.... which means, the shaft is sectioned.
@@bcn1gh7h4wk given the different gravity plates on the various decks, which also makes sense, shouldn't a depowered lift be held between decks by the gravity fields on those decks? My main problem is the freefall which doesn't make sense.
@@JeshuaSquirrel you could argue that the lift itself surfs that field by negating it, and a small pull from the very bottom makes it fall.
think buoyancy more than gravity.
Yeah, they *should* have removed Data's head before trying to disrupt the electrical arcing. I suspect the reason they did it that way is so they could save an additional fx shot, because we didn't actually see Riker remove Data's head.
Then how would they have gotten his body into the current... I doubt Riker could have picked him up and thrown his body like a javelin. And even if he did, what if he missed. From everything shown, they made the right decision.
@@patsk8872 Think the assumption (by people suggesting this) is that Data can control his body remotely somehow even with his head detached.
"it blew up right in her face,"
If I only had a nickel for every time that happened
I stumbled across this characters wiki page the other day and her image is OF THE SPARKS SHOOTING UP INTO HER FACE. brutal, and hilarious what the most noteworthy moment of her time on the show was...
Geordi's V.I.S.O.R. could easily have been sent off into space through the cargo bay door!
well if geordis visor can't pick up all that infrared that wall should be giving off, maybe it belongs in space!
The attachments (presumably magnetic) would have to hold up to a fair amount of action anyway; and the strength of the air movement would not be as much as you might think, and would decrease very rapidly in any case. We imagine decompression being like a hurricane, but actually the dynamic would be more like popping a bottle of champagne.
I have to think most people love this episode. This episode changes a main character.
I have heard some mutterings like oh its not structured correctly or it feels manufactured or whatever...but long story short, people who think this one is dumb are dumb :P
I'm surprised that no Trekkie has brought it up here, it being a part of their nature; but they're in space and it would be unnecessary and inefficient for there to be artificial gravity in a turbolift shaft. We have to assume that there's some technical reason why the shaft can't be isolated from the ship's AG.
Worf - to Kat: "Mm . . . . . . . . . . . . . Nice hat!"
When you're checking out background info on episodes, are you looking at the regular Wikipedia or the Memory-Alpha wiki for Star Trek? The latter will always be more detailed and interesting, IMO. So, if you haven't taken a look at it, I recommend it.
The not as strong episodes are still in the future, but they come one after another. I'm guessing Paula really likes the 9.0 rated episode over the 9.5 rated episode.
I'd hate to be the Captain's number 2. Would I be floating around in space or the toilet. Ha! Ha!
I was Wondering if youse got the Tribble I sent Last Year, it seems Paula loved it More than Katrina (As per my message of Who it should go to for keeps, Unless you Both fought for it ala Pon Pharr style between Kirk & Spock ⚔️)- Too bad she took it out of it's container package, Now it's no longer a collectable but it's satisfying that you Both love the Tribble regardless!!!😁
Great reaction! This is one of my favourite 5 episodes.
I think that was Gene Roddenberry's last episode.
This episode is a great example why O'Brien was the perfect choice to get transfered to DS9.
Looking at what's coming, I hope they saw the classic trek episode Journey to Babel. But its probably too late.
It would have been smarter for Picard to go down,at the very least they are at the bottom of the turbolift
Good times, good times.
ok, if you liked it enough to have a ds9 product with MORN on the cover, you can definitely stand to cover it in the reaction series!
I loved the character beats and development in the episode. However, I hated that many of the contrivances they used for a disaster made it look like the Enterprise could never pass a 20th Century safety inspection.
A cargo bay that has an exterior door, and no pressure suits are available in case of emergency?
No chemical fire extinguishers as a back up in case of force field fire suppression fails?
A turbo lift that has no manual locking mechanism to keep it from falling?
No manual way to eject the warp core in case of computer failure.
And in general, why don't they use fuses for bridge consoles? They are always on the edge of blowing up because too much energy gets shoved through them when they sustain the slightest damage.
It's really all the character work that made the episode
some of those things were revisited for the Enterprise E.
it's one of those cases where the lore of the universe hadn't even considered such catastrophic levels of failure.
like, modern medicine.... how many people have died from an infection since antibiotics are mass produced and worth a literal penny? nobody is carrying a wide-spectrum dose in their pockets "just in case"!
When you think about it, having no staircases in the entire ship is probably the most absurd thing
If you enjoy this episode, I'd recommend the Star Wars novel Fallen Star.
Next week, Star Trek predicts apps.
Order could have broken down at anytime, but it didn't .
I love love love this episode!
One thing I always wanted to know…. Why was turbo lift falling an issue…. What idiot decided to put artificial gravity in the elevator shafts, all it does is make it harder for the machine to do its job
Is it weird that my first thought on the intro was that I want to see Katrina with an even BIGGER hat?
Challenge accepted 😤
@@KatAlysha 🤣 I just genuinely think you could pull off a big floppy brimmed hat 🤷🏼♂
It’s a great episode never disappointed every time I view it
It was originally intended for Michelle Forbes to do DS9, but she declined. I like Nana Visitor, but I think the show would have been better with Michelle. She's a more intense and edgier actress.
I didn’t like Nana Visitor at all.
Some DS9 storylines just wouldn't work with Ro there instead of Kira. Plus, it was better to have a Bajoran militia executive officer butting heads with a Starfleet commanding officer, rather than some Bajoran Ensign in Starfleet just sort of there. It would have really changed the show, and considering how good DS9 turned out, I wouldn't want to roll the dice again.
we need a wolf 359 disaster movie
fun episode, enjoyable reaction!
Admit it! That Tribble is dead! No way you have ONE Tribble! You Klingon...
It ate the poisoned grain
Great episode! But just in case it comes up sometime in your life, you *are* supposed to exhale ;)
Another disastrous cat video!
Side note: Please do not separate my head from my body. Propriety compels me to refrain from commenting further.
Picards nightmear?
Who put the "close" button so far away from the "open" button
Isn’t it Rule 1 of Star Trek TNG = Don’t let Deanna drive?
Yeah, never let her drive.
Hey 👋
Spoiler. In DS9, there is an episode where the O'Briens comment that Keiko is going to have another baby, and Worf is like "NOW?!! Referencing him delivering this one.
Oh hi
Next episode is blocked.
You may now give birth. Love it.
