TNG Season 1, Episode 10 (Netflix: S1 E11): Hide and Q
Rating: 2
This episode covers some themes that I’m very interested in, such as the temptation of power, but I’m not pleased with how they demonstrate this theme. In the end Riker rejects ultimate power just because his friends don’t really like the gifts he gave them. Plus there are a lot of really silly things in this episode.

Looks like a set from TOS
Everyone talks back to Q, but as soon as Yar does it, both here and in Encounter at Farpoint, Q makes an example out of her. He must really not like her
“It sounds strange, but Im in a penalty box…Q’s penalty box. It sounds strange but it definitely isn’t.” -Yar No it’s strange, as is Yar’s weird crying scene that follows.
“Vicious animal things” -Worf
Cool confrontation scene between Q and Picard
Riker made Wesley older! but he still has to dress like a moron
