ST:TNGeez! 4.25 "In Theory"

STTNGeez! Not Another Star Trek Podcast!

It’s almost the end of Season Four and the show wants to fantasize with Data, so they make him fall in love with a woman – is that a thing a robot can even do? (Why don’t you ask Yar?-- know what I mean? BIGGA BIGG: Talk about “Fully Functional” Buck!) One of Data’s crewmates, Jenna D’Sora, gets the hots for him because he’s such a goddamned considerate Robot, and Data gets it in his positronic brain that he wants to experience a relationship – Hey, the dude’s had a cat, a daughter, and now, how about a girlfriend? After seeking advice from the whole command crew, Data decides to start a relationship and writes up a charming subroutine so that he can be the perfect mate. Jenna is charmed at first as Data checks off the dating boxes of being the perfect boyfriend. This android gets pretty good at dating, but perhaps he’s a little too good. If that isn’t enough, the Enterprise crew is encountering weird anomalies that get weirder and worse – er as the episode goes on! Maybe it’s the Space Cloud they’ve entered? Maybe it’s all the robo love being thrown around? Maybe it’s Patrick Stewart directing? Maybe. Maybe!
