Same with The Doctor in Voyager. I think the coolest scene in all of Star Trek was when he ran up the wall and flipped over Tuvok and snatched his phaser along the way.
Data's command code had 52 characters in it. It contained 15 sevens, no fives or zeros, 2 nines and only 3 letters (Charlie, Tango, Victor). The remaining numbers were repeated 4-7 times each.
I always wondered why Data would need to ask the computer "The shortest route to the transporter room". It did not hit me till now, Data knows the consequences of his actions and he was probably predicting a future trial. Having that communication log with the computer would assist Data in any defense that all he wanted was to reach the transporter room. He did not want to harm anyone or take permanent control of the ship. The computer log helps to show that.
Or maybe sloppy writing by the writers...whom had a habit of wholelly changing the time lines and other story canon to suit themselves..........in other words, future ST fans will be very confused and will stop buying ST stuffs......[ i hope so and I for one see more fan based stories infused for the better !! ]
This show was so fantastic. I used to watch it with my Dad as a kid, but wasn't old enough or interested enough to really pay attention to the show. I rewatched it in it's entirety a couple years ago and do not regret it at all. One of my favorite 90s shows.
I was really young when TNG came out and watched it mostly because I liked the special effects. I liked it even more when I was old enough to understand the plots.
@@zairac2564 Nah, he never once hurt anyone during this whole sequence. He never even picked up a weapon. That's partly why this is so badass to me. If he really needed them out of the way, he would have simply beamed them back to Engineering or some other part of the ship.
@@Tantalus010 but they have no idea that he won't hurt them, and that's why the transporter pad is one of the worst places to stand. O'brien points out the next reason why it's a bad spot to be. There's also several security officers that would disagree about him not hurting anyone.
I like how the security team on the Enterprise just menacingly approaches Data. There was plenty of opportunity while he's trying to say a command they could have shot him, but no.....lets just keep walking towards him slowly looking intimidating.
Because they have seen dude headbutt klingons, jump down a 15 meter silo and snap borg necks bare handed. They may look at him menacingly but they are shook deep within... @theydontwantthatwork.

One might be able to build a short lived empire with toughness.

@@ernesthill4017 haha you were fooled 😂 in the behind the scenes they talked about dubbing patrick stewart over Brent Spiner, but as they filmed it they thought it was convincing enough that the left it in. The voice you are hearing is indeed Brent Spiner
He's NOT a robot. Robots are, according to the original definition, slaves. He has been legally declared to be a person and therefore ineligible to be a slave.
@@Siegberg91 But no one else has the capabilities that Data has. As seen here he can take over the entire ship all on his own with no help. Anyone else taken over by outside influences had to be granted abilities that allowed them to.
Remember, he wasn't originally built to serve aboard a starship and wasn't equipped with his own wireless data networking hardware. He also has to use a comm badge for general long range communications. Though, considering the transceivers used are rather small, guess he could have installed one at some point if he had wanted too.
@@Krahazik I guess that it was too hard for the shows producers to imagine a "data spike", like Robocop's ( a movie that came out in 1987, the same year that TNG premiered.)
This is one of the top five best episodes of The Next Generation. The only episode that I think surpasses this one, is when Broccoli becomes the Enterprise's computer! LOL
@@etiennedevignolles7538 Broccoli was a derogatory nickname given to one of the crew members of the starship Enterprise. His real name on the show was Reginald Barkley.
@@johnburla Oh I see. Thanks for that. I've not seen TNG since it was first on and don't remember much. I'm re-watching, well, binge-watching lots of episodes now!
Riker should have fired instead of delaying to issue a verbal command. At that time Data had already been given enough warnings. Also, Data would have known that he had the ability to take over the ship like that if he wanted to or if someone else was controlling him. As a good starfleet officer, he should have rectified that but this was never addressed.
@@donaldwilliamson1227 Plus the whole "scanning phase" forcefields is ridiculous. They're not going to go to the trouble of putting in forcefields that can be positioned that precisely. Every intersection, or every x feet, but not one that would be able to corral someone like it did.
@@cryofpaine the idea of a force field as seen on star trek is ridiculous lol No one should have any illusion that this is Hard SF lol :) I mean long before you get there...FTL, transporters, magic gravity floors...none of that is possible in real life :)
You forget he had a lock on all command functions, shooting him would make things worse. As Enterprise would be dead in the water without communications.
These security teams are incompetent. They are just casually walking towards him and doing nothing, giving him plenty of time to give the computer verbal commands en route. They should be firing their phasers at him at first sight.
@@duncreg This is the biggest pet peeve I have with this scene. The ship's command functionality should have a full suite of biometric security. Hell, my phone has better security than the Enterprise.
Due to the fact that Data is stronger than the above average Klingon (and the above average Jem Hadar for that matter) obviously the security teams aren't stupid enough to get THAT close to him. They were approaching cautiously instead of just running and tackling him or whatever. Also, being an android no stun setting or kill setting (except the disintegration setting, but obviously they were ordered not to kill him) would work on him.
@@Lizfan2 I see no evidence that there was no phaser setting other than vaporize that would have disabled him. They even talk earlier in the same episode about asking the computer what stun setting will disable him.
@@rreagan007 Dude, Data was an android. How do you stun an android? And Picard asking that question only means he was trying to find a way to disable Data without killing him. There's no evidence that any stun setting or kill setting would have worked on Data.
Here I am trying to figure out what episode we’re on and then he finally transported to the planet, then I’m like: oh yeah, this is when he meets his dad
I believe there would be a "reset key" in a secure area or not, someplace like a wall panel nobody knows about or a kick plate. Possibly two locations Within the ship. Within these hideaways would be a master reset button only the commander and second in command would know.
I'm amazed Starfleet doesn't have a failsafe disabling device for data and all the episodes You're telling me that the guy was super human strength that is virtually immune to everything and no one questions it no one considers maybe having a backup plan
@@willia3r he had contingency plans for both the Justice League and himself with his own Android that was programmed to kill him should he ever go too far. Maybe they should have made up killer version of data like super LORE lol
“We only know we came out of warp by looking out a window”. And later they find that they only know that the bathroom door is locked by trying to open it.
I would call him more intimidating than scary. He's almost never threatening, but he's so utterly omni-capable and efficient he makes everyone else look inadequate.
I love how most of the security teams who walk into the forcefields end up writhing on the floor in agony like they have been tased, but the one at 2:37 just reacts like he's walked gently into a bit of glass.
One of my favorite YT vids is where they did something like an hour loop on Datas passcode. If you have like 5 different tabs of that video open at different speeds, it’s pretty fun!
Data has a computational speed of 60 trillion operations a second. "Data stop..." "Data, this ends here..." All of 'em hesitated, giving Data plenty of time to foil their attempts to retake the ship. This whole scene could've realistically ended had they just shot Data.
He's also resistant to phaser fire- especially on stun- so that may not have even done it. If they were hesitating, it was likely because they didn't want to risk killing him.
@@Sanderford Eh, I can't say that's a good idea even by today's standards. Borg? Sure, shoot the buggers. But Data is a member of starfleet so shooting him would literally be friendly fire.
I love how one guy gets completely knocked out by the forcefield and the next guy just does an average impression of a mime trapped in an invisible box.😂
At first I wondered why he walked so casually, but I believe he did it to focus his processing on sensing everything around him and making multiple plans on the fly, calculating all possible outcomes.
Ah yes. The super advanced computers of the Enterprise. Able to do so much, except realize that Picard's voice is coming from two different parts of the ship at the same time and one of them is coming from the body of an android....
No. Computers do what they are programmed to. Advanced or not. The Enterprise computer is not programmed to verify impossible location changes or from whom a voice originates. Of cause it is capable of doing that, but it is not programmed to do so. And sometimes for good reasons.
@@WestOfEarth It's not like Riker's reflex's are a that of a snails, and data has never been shown to have super speed. At least not to the point that you wouldn't be able to follow him with your eyes.
The access code Data says and what appears on the screen do not match exactly. Data inserts a 4 as the 7th character and a 3 as the 23rd character that are not shown in the readout. "Seven" appears 15 times in the code, but "five" is absent. No "zeros" either.
I was wondering who would be the nerdiest among us to actually type out the whole code and verify it with what was on the screen. Believe me, I contemplated it multiple times. Lol
FOUND MY OLD REPLY : Well that will never be unlocked as the computer missed two numbers spoken by Data Screen showed : 17346721476 Charlie 3278977763 Tango 732 Victor 731171888732476789764376 lock Data said : 173467 "3" 21476 Charlie 327897776 "4" 3 Tango 732 Victor 731171888732476789764376 lock when was the last virus check done? or they need to fix the ships voice recognition AI in the 23rd century.
What I don’t understand is at the very beginning of Data’s little coup attempt how was he able to gain Picard’s alpha 1 clearance code other then just mimic his voice pattern. I would think as captain of the Enterprise that Picard would be the only person who knew the correct command code to establish the highest alpha level clearance. Being able to simply imitate the voice pattern of anther person should not be enough to gain the highest level clearance on the ship without also entering the correct command code that only Picard individually should know. Sounds like a pretty serious oversight in security protocols to me?
From what I understood he was only mimicking Picard to lock everyone else out and created a super strong password that they wouldn’t be able to crack. He didn’t know it, he made it up.
@@Davidsworldtravels That's exactly what I am saying, there was not a alpha one clearance code already in place that only Picard should know to prevent data from being able to demote Picard to alpha level two simply by mimicking his voice. I am surprised by the lack of security for something that important to the security of the entire ship.
@@MrNaxman Maybe your right. But you have to keep in mind the time this was filmed, around 1990. Computer security not only was in its children's years, but also was considered not important by most people because of the wow that people thought about computers. It was a time of astonishment about capabilities, not about security concerns.
There really should've been more dire consequences after this. Data should've been suspended and potentially even removed from Starfleet. They could've brought him back later after finding out how valuable he was, but there's no way the crew would ever fully trust him again so long as he could be so easily and readily turned to "Evil Mode" by outside influences.
You say this, but LaForge is also reprogrammed into a killer in one episode. The entire crew are subverted by a game picked up on Risa, and I feel sure a dozen other instances in TNG alone show that mind control is a fact of life.
2:53 "I order you to stop" 🤣🤣🤣 'As a duly-designated representative of the City, County and State of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin, or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension.'
When I have plucked the rose... "Tea, Earl Gray Hot", Longing still for that which longer nurseth the disease, In faith I do not love thee, shall I compare thee to a summers dream? - POGO DATA & PICARD.
Amazing how in almost every episode, Riker is always one step behind the rest of the crew. Seriously, it's no wonder he turned into a Neanderthal in that one episode - which isn't a de-evolution for him 😅
@@laurenlewis5233 Wheaton was 18 when this was made, so I guess it makes sense. I recall him criticizing his own performance in the episode "Family", which was the same year. He said something about being more into surfing than acting at that point - hence the tan, I guess.
Technically he would, but this is a TV show and for the benefit of the audience they had him pull it up so that the following corridor sequence makes more sense.
Picard chose engineering over the battle bridge because previously their warp speed increased without any apparent explanation and the main bridge lost life support. This was happening while Geordi was conducting a re-alignment of their warp coil. So, main engineering made the most sense for getting to the bottom of things. Plus, it probably has the most access to manually reset systems if needed. Don't know why they didn't try turning it off and on again. That usually works for most computers.
He entered transporter room 1 but the schematics clearly show the transporter pad will be on his left. But instead enters the room with the pad to his right, which would be entering from the far side of the room which is door for the primary hardware for the transporter pad is located. They literally did it just so the trio could pop into view after he has already entered the room for dramatic effect because the actual entrance has an immediate clear view of the full transporter pad. But they could have achieved the same effect by him/the camera looking at the transporter control expecting O'Brian there, then panning to them hijacking the pad by being on it as they are.
0:05 I remember seeing how they filmed that shot. The ship doesn't move but the camera did. I miss the good ol days of actual props. I remember when I was given a tour of the Mythbusters shop, it's called M5 Industries owned by Jamie Hyneman, and he and Adam Savage had all these props from Short Circuit, No Batteries Required, Top Gun and the robot 7-Up vending machine on tracks that shot cans at people on the beach. Pretty cool time to geow up in the 80s.
wow I wanted to make sure that both scenes were not spliced into each other but I just launched the actual episode and I was right Data is wearing 2 different uniforms in this episode and no one even noticed wow!
I did this recently. My wife tried to order more essential oils so i transfered all alexa functions to the upstairs echo dot 3 and canceled stupid order authorization three alpha. She fell back to the echo show in the kitchen and i rerouted all alexa functions to my kid's fire tablet to change form of payment to an old, expired debit card. It was a close one.
I like how Worf and the security team back up when Data approaches, instead of just standing their ground. Allowing them selves to be trapped behind a force field. If they stood their ground and Data walked forwards the force field protecting him would go down and then Data could be shot.
lets all hide in the area which has shield emitters in case something untoward is beamed onto the ship instead of taking up strategic positions around the room and shooting him as he walks in the door, think starfleet should get some camping tactics from some players in cod warzone.
Data could have simply used a personal force field that he made from his communicator, like Worf did in "a fistful of datas".🙄 Think of all the times,...all the episodes.....where it would have been rather useful to turn your communicator into a personal force field generator on an away-mission. That would save a lot of "red shirts" 🤣
You figure that once Data hi-jacked the enterprise the first time they would have figured out a way to prevent it from happening again... I think he hi-jack the ship 3 or 4 times!

He did not want to harm anyone or take permanent control of the ship. The computer log helps to show that.

Or maybe sloppy writing by the writers...whom had a habit of wholelly changing the time lines and other story canon to suit themselves..........in other words, future ST fans will be very confused and will stop buying ST stuffs......[ i hope so and I for one see more fan based stories infused for the better !! ]

This show was so fantastic. I used to watch it with my Dad as a kid, but wasn't old enough or interested enough to really pay attention to the show. I rewatched it in it's entirety a couple years ago and do not regret it at all. One of my favorite 90s shows.
I was really young when TNG came out and watched it mostly because I liked the special effects. I liked it even more when I was old enough to understand the plots.
The show is amazing. Been watching since I was 7 in 1987

@@Tantalus010 but they have no idea that he won't hurt them, and that's why the transporter pad is one of the worst places to stand. O'brien points out the next reason why it's a bad spot to be. There's also several security officers that would disagree about him not hurting anyone.
Looks like Data chose to go to Jurassic Park
I like how the security team on the Enterprise just menacingly approaches Data. There was plenty of opportunity while he's trying to say a command they could have shot him, but no.....lets just keep walking towards him slowly looking intimidating.
Agreed they should have shot him on sight and worry about the consequences later.
Because they have seen dude headbutt klingons, jump down a 15 meter silo and snap borg necks bare handed. They may look at him menacingly but they are shook deep within... @theydontwantthatwork.
They are required to pace slowly, else face general court martial due to the Federation council standards of using peaceful measures.
@@oldtwinsna8347 A dangerous thing... to see restraint as weakness. Another dangerous thing is to view p.c. and "wokeness" as weakness as well.
The trait in human evolution that has gotten us farthest is not individual strength. It is the ability to be inclusive and collectivist.
One might be able to build a short lived empire with toughness. We will never build the complex society needed to travel the stars with tough-guy, non-inclusive, Rambo, John Wayne, ( Captain Kirk) whiteboy mentality.
I'd casually have played "Stayin' alive" while they menacingly approach
This scene illustrates the potential of Data's "brother" Lore as a truly threatening villain instead of the clown they made him.
Brent Spiner's Patric Stewart impression really is on the spot!
Yes, after I heard his impression years later I wondered if they had dubbed in Stewart's voice or just let Spiner do it live.
Picard's voice was dubbed for this scene.
But, in reality, Brent Spiner is a brilliant mimic, and does an uncanny impression of Patrick Stewart
@@ernesthill4017 haha you were fooled 😂 in the behind the scenes they talked about dubbing patrick stewart over Brent Spiner, but as they filmed it they thought it was convincing enough that the left it in. The voice you are hearing is indeed Brent Spiner

I think a data kill switch on Picard’s keychain might be handy after this event
You could say the same for everyone in crew they get taking over by aliens every wednesday.
@@Siegberg91 But no one else has the capabilities that Data has. As seen here he can take over the entire ship all on his own with no help. Anyone else taken over by outside influences had to be granted abilities that allowed them to.
What about all the times Data was right and ended up saving the crew?
computer: Kill switch inquiry's are not available at your present location
The back of his neck has an off switch. It was demonstrated by Riker during the trial
I like how Data is extra twitchy in this episode.
looking for a comment to concur, top acting chops.
This is that moment you realize Data was able to take over the ship anytime he ever wanted.

I still find it hillarious that Data still needs verbal communication to the main computer
I feel like people would get pretty nervous if he had some kind of direct subspace link
Remember, he wasn't originally built to serve aboard a starship and wasn't equipped with his own wireless data networking hardware. He also has to use a comm badge for general long range communications. Though, considering the transceivers used are rather small, guess he could have installed one at some point if he had wanted too.
@@Krahazik I guess that it was too hard for the shows producers to imagine a "data spike", like Robocop's ( a movie that came out in 1987, the same year that TNG premiered.)
He wanted to be as human as possible. Humans can't directly network with the ship's computer
To be fair he is a unique computer. Maybe he isn't directly compatible with Starfleet tech.

Riker should have fired instead of delaying to issue a verbal command. At that time Data had already been given enough warnings. Also, Data would have known that he had the ability to take over the ship like that if he wanted to or if someone else was controlling him. As a good starfleet officer, he should have rectified that but this was never addressed.
Worf should have fired as well
@@donaldwilliamson1227 Plus the whole "scanning phase" forcefields is ridiculous. They're not going to go to the trouble of putting in forcefields that can be positioned that precisely. Every intersection, or every x feet, but not one that would be able to corral someone like it did.
@@cryofpaine the idea of a force field as seen on star trek is ridiculous lol
No one should have any illusion that this is Hard SF lol :)
I mean long before you get there...FTL, transporters, magic gravity floors...none of that is possible in real life :)
An EMP with initial field dampners would have taken him down.
You forget he had a lock on all command functions, shooting him would make things worse. As Enterprise would be dead in the water without communications.
These security teams are incompetent. They are just casually walking towards him and doing nothing, giving him plenty of time to give the computer verbal commands en route. They should be firing their phasers at him at first sight.
And you've got a computer that can tell you where anyone is on the ship yet it accepts commands from Data simply because he sounds like Picard.
@@duncreg This is the biggest pet peeve I have with this scene. The ship's command functionality should have a full suite of biometric security. Hell, my phone has better security than the Enterprise.
Due to the fact that Data is stronger than the above average Klingon (and the above average Jem Hadar for that matter) obviously the security teams aren't stupid enough to get THAT close to him. They were approaching cautiously instead of just running and tackling him or whatever. Also, being an android no stun setting or kill setting (except the disintegration setting, but obviously they were ordered not to kill him) would work on him.
@@Lizfan2 I see no evidence that there was no phaser setting other than vaporize that would have disabled him. They even talk earlier in the same episode about asking the computer what stun setting will disable him.
@@rreagan007 Dude, Data was an android. How do you stun an android? And Picard asking that question only means he was trying to find a way to disable Data without killing him. There's no evidence that any stun setting or kill setting would have worked on Data.

Here I am trying to figure out what episode we’re on and then he finally transported to the planet, then I’m like: oh yeah, this is when he meets his dad
"I want security teams..." To what? Get killed by an insane android?
And yet Data gets his way without even using violence.
I always felt bad for the red shirts when they were sent on away missions because usually at least one didn't come back.
Brent doing his impressions again
Just one of my favorite Data scenes of all times.
When an unstoppable force meets movable objects.
I believe there would be a "reset key" in a secure area or not, someplace like a wall panel nobody knows about or a kick plate. Possibly two locations Within the ship. Within these hideaways would be a master reset button only the commander and second in command would know.
At least you could add in description what season and episode it is from on all your star trek uploads
I'm amazed Starfleet doesn't have a failsafe disabling device for data and all the episodes You're telling me that the guy was super human strength that is virtually immune to everything and no one questions it no one considers maybe having a backup plan
Which is I will always appreciate Batman.
He has a backup plan for everyone, even himself.
@@willia3r he had contingency plans for both the Justice League and himself with his own Android that was programmed to kill him should he ever go too far. Maybe they should have made up killer version of data like super LORE lol
Being able to shut down data with a remote control would violate his rights as a sentient being. They wouldn't do that to him, just on principle.
“We only know we came out of warp by looking out a window”. And later they find that they only know that the bathroom door is locked by trying to open it.
Data's actually pretty fucking scary when he wants to be.
I would call him more intimidating than scary. He's almost never threatening, but he's so utterly omni-capable and efficient he makes everyone else look inadequate.
Looked a lot like his malevolent brother.
He was pretty dangerous when taken over by those energy aliens along with Troi and O'brien.
I love how most of the security teams who walk into the forcefields end up writhing on the floor in agony like they have been tased, but the one at 2:37 just reacts like he's walked gently into a bit of glass.
I think it depends on how hard you hit the force field.
Or if you’re halfway through
Or he likes S&M.
Be glad it doesn't cut them in half.
it looks like he contacted it fiorst with his hands while the others ran face first into it
He even bypassed the “I am not a robot” box 😯

Data has a computational speed of 60 trillion operations a second. "Data stop..." "Data, this ends here..." All of 'em hesitated, giving Data plenty of time to foil their attempts to retake the ship. This whole scene could've realistically ended had they just shot Data.
yes but with that logic no shows can really have plots.
shoot straight away
actually talk about your problems.
sudenly every film is 10 minutes long
Yes, but this is Starfleet. Solving a problem with *Gasp!* force never occurs to them until it's too late.
He's also resistant to phaser fire- especially on stun- so that may not have even done it. If they were hesitating, it was likely because they didn't want to risk killing him.
@@Sanderford Eh, I can't say that's a good idea even by today's standards. Borg? Sure, shoot the buggers. But Data is a member of starfleet so shooting him would literally be friendly fire.
@@ViciousVinnyD Wearing the same uniform does not mean you cannot be considered an enemy because of your actions in the moment.
I love how one guy gets completely knocked out by the forcefield and the next guy just does an average impression of a mime trapped in an invisible box.😂
At first I wondered why he walked so casually, but I believe he did it to focus his processing on sensing everything around him and making multiple plans on the fly, calculating all possible outcomes.
He was also walking at the speed of which the forcefileds would deploy like he set earlier.

I just realized that that means that Riker and O'Brien were trapped on the transporter pad until data came back
Ah yes. The super advanced computers of the Enterprise. Able to do so much, except realize that Picard's voice is coming from two different parts of the ship at the same time and one of them is coming from the body of an android....
No. Computers do what they are programmed to. Advanced or not.
The Enterprise computer is not programmed to verify impossible location changes or from whom a voice originates. Of cause it is capable of doing that, but it is not programmed to do so. And sometimes for good reasons.
really creative script, you can tell the actors enjoyed acting this episode
Back when Data is an absolute boss
Had Riker stunned him as soon as he entered the transporter room (vs. hiding on the transporter pad to surprise him), Data would be on the ground.
Data also had super-human reflexes, so that tactic wouldn't be guarenteed successful.
@@WestOfEarth It's not like Riker's reflex's are a that of a snails, and data has never been shown to have super speed. At least not to the point that you wouldn't be able to follow him with your eyes.
The access code Data says and what appears on the screen do not match exactly. Data inserts a 4 as the 7th character and a 3 as the 23rd character that are not shown in the readout. "Seven" appears 15 times in the code, but "five" is absent. No "zeros" either.
I will go back and watch. If this is correct, I will send you a free vacation
I was wondering who would be the nerdiest among us to actually type out the whole code and verify it with what was on the screen. Believe me, I contemplated it multiple times. Lol

I love Worf as a character but he's a pretty hopeless security officer
he's a total waste of space, a Klingon version of Wesley
He was a lot better character on DS9, they seemed to know what to do with him then.
@@jjbowe Agreed. DS9 just had better characters overall.
When "Establish." is the most badass move possible
What I don’t understand is at the very beginning of Data’s little coup attempt how was he able to gain Picard’s alpha 1 clearance code other then just mimic his voice pattern. I would think as captain of the Enterprise that Picard would be the only person who knew the correct command code to establish the highest alpha level clearance. Being able to simply imitate the voice pattern of anther person should not be enough to gain the highest level clearance on the ship without also entering the correct command code that only Picard individually should know. Sounds like a pretty serious oversight in security protocols to me?
From what I understood he was only mimicking Picard to lock everyone else out and created a super strong password that they wouldn’t be able to crack. He didn’t know it, he made it up.
@@Davidsworldtravels That's exactly what I am saying, there was not a alpha one clearance code already in place that only Picard should know to prevent data from being able to demote Picard to alpha level two simply by mimicking his voice. I am surprised by the lack of security for something that important to the security of the entire ship.
You have to oversee certain things when watching Star Trek, lol. It’s like reading the Bible, in a way.
@@MrNaxman Maybe your right. But you have to keep in mind the time this was filmed, around 1990. Computer security not only was in its children's years, but also was considered not important by most people because of the wow that people thought about computers. It was a time of astonishment about capabilities, not about security concerns.
There really should've been more dire consequences after this. Data should've been suspended and potentially even removed from Starfleet. They could've brought him back later after finding out how valuable he was, but there's no way the crew would ever fully trust him again so long as he could be so easily and readily turned to "Evil Mode" by outside influences.
That surprised me as well.
Command would hand him over to Maddox in the guise of a threat to Starfleet Security.
You say this, but LaForge is also reprogrammed into a killer in one episode. The entire crew are subverted by a game picked up on Risa, and I feel sure a dozen other instances in TNG alone show that mind control is a fact of life.
He should be dismantled
He's not responsible for these actions. They were completely forced upon him. It would be similar to the insanity defense.
Likely Jordi would have gone over Data in the lab once they got back, off screen, and helped Data to remove that possibility from happening again.
I don’t know what was going on in this episode, but this video was riveting.

Acho que perdi muito desta série; a nova geração e um dia terei que assistir a todas as temporadas❤❤❤❤
One of my favorite episodes. It demonstrates his capabilities.
Wouldn’t he know the shortest route to anywhere on the ship? Might have been fun to have had Picard use the battle bridge instead of engineering…
Technically he would, but this is a TV show and for the benefit of the audience they had him pull it up so that the following corridor sequence makes more sense.
Picard chose engineering over the battle bridge because previously their warp speed increased without any apparent explanation and the main bridge lost life support. This was happening while Geordi was conducting a re-alignment of their warp coil. So, main engineering made the most sense for getting to the bottom of things. Plus, it probably has the most access to manually reset systems if needed. Don't know why they didn't try turning it off and on again. That usually works for most computers.
@@DyrianLightbringer And engineering was a standing set and the battle bridge wasn't
Apparently, the battle bridge set had been damaged in a storm at time of filming? They had to recreate a new one for a subsequent film.
"I order you to stop." Big mistake by Worf. He should have roasted him while he had the chance.
He entered transporter room 1 but the schematics clearly show the transporter pad will be on his left. But instead enters the room with the pad to his right, which would be entering from the far side of the room which is door for the primary hardware for the transporter pad is located.
They literally did it just so the trio could pop into view after he has already entered the room for dramatic effect because the actual entrance has an immediate clear view of the full transporter pad. But they could have achieved the same effect by him/the camera looking at the transporter control expecting O'Brian there, then panning to them hijacking the pad by being on it as they are.
I bet it was even easier for Lore to hijack that Pakled freighter. "To hijack ship. break rubber band..."
Damn, no one ever thought about the AI goes rogue, every officer needs a Data override codeword or keychain
0:05 I remember seeing how they filmed that shot. The ship doesn't move but the camera did. I miss the good ol days of actual props. I remember when I was given a tour of the Mythbusters shop, it's called M5 Industries owned by Jamie Hyneman, and he and Adam Savage had all these props from Short Circuit, No Batteries Required, Top Gun and the robot 7-Up vending machine on tracks that shot cans at people on the beach. Pretty cool time to geow up in the 80s.
Data’s villain arc has just begun
0:29 This question coming from Data makes me think his processor made the moon landing.
Dang I wonder how many times Picard n Data did that number sequence...
I think that was just Brent Spiner. He can actually imitate Patrick Stewart, and has done so many times to mess with him.
If it was he sounds the same...
@@tonyaguero7850 it's REALLY close
@@tonyaguero7850 He's close enough to prank call Stewart's wife more than once.
wow I wanted to make sure that both scenes were not spliced into each other but I just launched the actual episode and I was right Data is wearing 2 different uniforms in this episode and no one even noticed wow!
There's other stuff going on...
wait what? isnt he just wearing the yellow one?
I might not just be geeky enough. I have re-watched it and still cant find the difference.
I did this recently. My wife tried to order more essential oils so i transfered all alexa functions to the upstairs echo dot 3 and canceled stupid order authorization three alpha. She fell back to the echo show in the kitchen and i rerouted all alexa functions to my kid's fire tablet to change form of payment to an old, expired debit card. It was a close one.
I like how Worf and the security team back up when Data approaches, instead of just standing their ground. Allowing them selves to be trapped behind a force field. If they stood their ground and Data walked forwards the force field protecting him would go down and then Data could be shot.
lets all hide in the area which has shield emitters in case something untoward is beamed onto the ship instead of taking up strategic positions around the room and shooting him as he walks in the door, think starfleet should get some camping tactics from some players in cod warzone.
Superb musical cures perfectly heightens the tension throughout this sequence
i love the fact that data keeps timing the force fields to knock people over
Data could have simply used a personal force field that he made from his communicator, like Worf did in "a fistful of datas".🙄 Think of all the times,...all the episodes.....where it would have been rather useful to turn your communicator into a personal force field generator on an away-mission. That would save a lot of "red shirts" 🤣
You figure that once Data hi-jacked the enterprise the first time they would have figured out a way to prevent it from happening again... I think he hi-jack the ship 3 or 4 times!

- Establish
