O’Brien plays cello?

They get a message from the Sheliak saying that there’s some human colonists in their territory

Data is the only one not effected by the hyperonic radiation, so he alone goes down to convince the colonists to get out

Their leader is a jerk, and also his voice was dubbed in, and it’s really distracting

The Sheliak aren’t easy to negotiate with

Data meets a lady that’s into robots, but her robots totally suck

She’s reeaally into robots

The colonists call a meeting to discuss the issue. Data explains to them that they’re all going to die

The colonist leader says that they can’t leave because they have a lot of cool stuff, and water, and it was really hard to build this place, man. He doesn’t give great arguments, but Data is saving his best counter arguments for the climax of the episode

I like the scene of Troi and Picard talking about communication with aliens in general, and preparing to talk with the Sheliak

Data has a meeting with some colonists but that leader jerk wasn’t invited. He comes anyway and electrocutes Data

Picard meets with the Sheliak, but it doesn’t go well

Data starts shooting stuff and stuns some people. It convinces the colonists that they don’t have a chance

“Things can be replaced. Lives cannot.” It’s near the end of the episode, so Data gives his good arguments

Picard does some research and sticks it to the Sheliak. It’s actually pretty cool

Lady: “Do you have any feelings for me?”
Data: “I have no feelings of any kind”
