On this very special patron-requested episode of The Nexus, the gang is chatting about two, count 'em, two episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation! 

First up is the season three episode "Captain's Holiday," which originally aired March 31st, 1990. Marvel in the glory that is Picard's legs! Watch as his attempts to read a book are made... futile by a crooked archeologist and an obnoxious Ferengi! And what is with those time traveling Gleep Glops?

We're then flashing forward to the horrendous season seven episode, "Masks," which first aired back on February 19th, 1994. This episode features everything you want in Star Trek: Data sitting in on a children's art class, Data doing funny voices, and, you guessed it, Data and Picard wearing stupid, but titular, masks!

The Nexus is a We Hate Movies podcast where the guys futilely go through two Star Trek series at the same time. Thank you so much for continuing to support this weird thing known as WHM! We couldn't do it without you!

Is Captains Holiday the only canonical instance of Picard getting laid? This episode is going to give me the laughs I need right now.

Masks might just be one of the worse episodes of TNG ever. Can't wait to listen to this wonderful nonsense!

Tiny point - it IS UB forty. Named for the Unemployment Benefit form that all the band members, at some point, had to fill in during that period of massive unemployment in the UK. Showing my age, I know. I'd be interested to know if Andrew's "frowners" were from the UK. I'd be surprised. 😉

“Masks” is clearly at the tail end of the TNG series. After so many great and epic episodes, like “Best of Both Worlds,” “Chain of Command,” “The Most Toys,” “Inner Light,” “Q Who”, “Yesterday’s Enterprise,” just to name a few, the writers ran out of ideas; “Fuck it, let’s have Data and Picard wear masks, I don’t know.”

When does Vash join the Q Continuum? Is it in the comics or something? I remember she basically goes site seeing with Q and then didn’t they part ways after she got sick of him? I have no desire to watch that awful DS9 episode to check.

Happy Birthtime!

U-B-four-oh? That’s some bullshit. Take it from a Brit, you were pronouncing UB40 right in the first place
