Star Trek TNG: Episode 133 - True Q

"a young woman coming aboard evidences non-human abilities and is investigated by Q, who claims she is also a Q."

You nearly forget the Q is supposed to be the Villain. The problem is that "Q" is so quirky that he seems more like the comic relief. This episode sort of puts how brutal the Q Continuum is. Amanda, who is played by the cute as all hell Olivia d'Abo, is a Q/human  ... "Q" has been sent by the Continuum to kill her for being a hybrid.

This is a fun episode, but there is a potential logic problem with the plot:

We learn that the penalty for leaving the Q Continuum is death... and yet in the episode Deja Q, Q's punishment for misdeed was to be made mortal. So why did they kill the girl's parents? Or why not just make this girl mortal?

Better question: Why don't I just shut the fuck up cause I'm a huge fucking nerd?

Anyway, fun episode, and Olivia d'Abo is crazy hot. I'd like to stick my Q in her continuum, if you know what I mean.

My favorite Q episode is the one called "Q," where he kills Mr. Body and Martin Mull, Madeline Khan, and Lesley Ann Warren have to solve the mystery.

I also really like that episode called "Elmer's Q," where Q gets the Enterprise into a really sticky situation.

I've always liked that episode "Qcumber" where Q... um... is a cucumber?

I loved that episode Schindler's List where that little girl in the beginning kept yelling, "GOODBYE, Q!!! GOODBYE, QIII GOODBYE, Q!!!"

None of those were funny. Stop trolling this blog. We're trying to have a serious discussion on our favorite episodes of Star Trek.

"Fuck Q"
