    Part of my top ten TNG episodes.

    The only use of a Runabout in the series, the first time we get to see how Romulan ships are powered, outstanding job getting the cast and scores of extra to stand perfectly still while filming scenes, open ending that doesn’t resolve or completely explain what was happening.

    You also forgot a third, and more popular meme is also from this episode:

      I agree, this episode is one of the best. I especially like how we only see it from the team that was in the runabout, so the viewer has no insight into the mystery. (I think they did the same in the episode where the crew devolved, but I’m not sure.)

        They showed a lot of lead up to the devolving (Genesis). I don’t believe it showed the final stages but I do remember there was back n forth with Troi about constantly adjust the bridge temperature and being thirsty leading to Worf biting her face.

          It still exists…

          One of the songs I was never able to find came from that site. It’s a version of Safety Not Guaranteed but the dude is black and the song playing is a rap sample of Push It to the Limit.

            The culture of flash animations didn’t quite translate into HTML 5 it seems. It’s all video based now and we lost something along the way.
