Star Trek TNG: Episode 68 - Captain's Holiday

"Picard is convinced to take some much needed shore leave, but gets wrapped up in a woman's treasure hunt."

Not many episodes in this season are shit, but this one is pretty close. It doesn't introduce Vash who is pretty hot and also Sovak (same actor plays Rom, Quark's brother) ... who is pretty hot. Why not just make Quarks brother Sovak? Whatever. Anyway  how uncomfortable is it to see Picard in romance scenes? Seriously, I cringed throughout the entire episode. And what the hell was going on anyway? Picard is forced to take a vacation on seemingly the only fun planet in the galaxy, Risa. Aliens from the future are looking for some device and the Ferengi hire this woman to find it ... for some reason ... and then she turns on them. Also I swear they kept hinting that she banged the Ferengi. At least she was cute.

Oh yeah, this episode. They tried to have a fun, light-hearted Picard episode, but he's just not fun or light-hearted. Still... it's ok.

is this the episode where picard wears tiny tiny shorts and a lady's bath robe all the time? like a really short bath robe??
in the future people dress like that??? i doubt it.
