@@Elly3981 it's really just because his career with starfleet is too important to him to worry about romantic affiliation. he had girlfriends here and there but inevitably his work always got in the way, and any time we see a future picard or an alternate universe picard that no longer had his career with starfleet he always ends up getting married he was married to the enterprise in every respect
They set this scene up so perfectly, riker being the only one to pretty much say "go for it " was so funny. I LOL everytime and was so happy to find this here today :) Thanks for uploading this scene its one of my favorites .
This is a great scene and I’d forgotten it’s heartwarming but genuinely amusing. In hindsight and watching this as an adult, it’s also a quick run through of the personalities of the main TNG characters: Geordi: Hahaha, I don’t know! Engines and stuff! Troi: No answer at all, question reflected back at you. Why didn’t the writers give me more to do? Riker: she’s down to clown and you should definitely hit that. I’m up for watching or even getting involved. Worf: what are your intentions towards my womenfolk? I will fuck you up. Picard: *looks wise, thoughtful and measured* “Bitches be crazy”
Agreed that it reflected their personalities, disagreed that that's what they said. Geordi even gave good advice, basically "It's not a good idea for her to jump into another relationship right away unless you're both really serious, but relationships are complicated so I would ask someone else" and Troi gave good advice too, "You should be careful and understand that this is unlike anything you've done before but it's ultimately your decision." It's not her job as a therapist to make that kind of decision for him unless maybe it was against Starfleet regulations.
I think people didn't understand Deanna's advice, she's saying that Data needs to be careful and understand that he can't just imitate what he reads in books (which ends up being a problem when he tries to do that) but it's ultimately his decision. Because as therapist she can't just tell people whether or not they should be in relationships (if they're not already married or something), and she wouldn't know for sure whether he should be.
See, I take this the opposite way. Usually Data is very precise in his answers. To me, 'I do not think so' translates to 'Well, two books have been knocked off the shelf, one of my socks is in the hall, there's a strange ball of... something in one corner, and superficial damage to my chair. As I live with a cat I regard these developments as normal and not evidence of an intruder disturbing things.'
i reckon worf probably chased jenna's ex boyfriend around the ship with a batleth and threatened to kill him where he stood after the break up and jeff would probably take his chances in the airlock rather than deal with an angry klingon security officer lol
Geordi , young brother just want to play with the toy but zero love knowledge. Troi, protective mother, not ready to see her son going into relationship but realized she need to cut the cord. Worf, friend also a love rival but knew he didn't stand a chance so try hard dissuade you. Riker, cool and supportive big brother and would join you during the 'best' part. Picard, too busy to be bothered father, seems to support you but probably will say no if protective mother asked him to.
Nah, Worf is more like Jenna's big brother who also happens to be Data friend. Riker is like the cool dad that pep talks with his son all the time, while Picard is the pre-occupied indifferent grandpa!
@@jmwoods190 I agree with you on the first part but not too many young people go to their grandparents for love advice. I see Picard as more of a father figure to Data and Wesley since he often treats them like they were his own sons.
The only member of the crew Data, curiously, didn’t go to was the only one who’d been married- Beverly. Wonder what her advice, as a widow, would’ve been.
Riker ia by far my favorite part of this whole thing. Everyone is cautioning Data to tread lightly, be careful of her feelings, don't hurt her, and Riker is like. "Go get it!"
Probably not best to find out.. but then again, Worf's response to Wesley's questions about Klingon Romance should be taken with a grain of salt.. "A Klingon female snarls and growls, baring her teeth and throwing things around.." Wesley: "And what does the Male do?" "He reads love poetry... And ducks a lot"
@@acoote1701 To be fair to Data, he's not entirely wrong. We don't know what Klingon poetry sounds like. Poetry could be a Klingon euphemism for dirty talk, but in a poetic style. We also don't know the full Klingon courting ritual. The ritual could vary depending on the house, or what caste they are in. On Earth, the courting ritual varies depending on the culture. 🙂
Too bad this episode went for the immature angle. A real plot twist would have been Data dumping Jenna. She's cute but not a lot going on there--and in the end, she showed she was the lesser to Data and somehow more emotionless. (Did she ever say she LIKED him?) At least she had the grace to leave when she realized Data was MORE complex than she realized--and complex is not her thing.
Jenna's problem was that she was more attracted to Data's good looks than him as a person. Jenna didn't realize that she had to be direct in her communication with Data because he takes everything literally and she needed to be more patient with him. Data has shown many times that he's capable of caring for others even more than himself so he's definitely capable of love as well. He's not as emotionless as he himself thinks.
@@Elly3981 Also, it may be that this episode was a quiet allegory about modern relationships with the comment that modern, smart women are quite capable of casually injuring someone without a care--especially the fun 'nice' ones.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Lol, Data has emotions, all right. He's just programmed to be way more mellow and reserved than Lore. His childlike innocence and charm are probably what people liked so much about him, especially the audience.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver There are plenty of men who do the same. Data is a nice guy. He tries so hard to please Jenna but at least he's not hurt too bad when she breaks up with him. She didn't give Data enough time to get attached to her.
Riker: *cracks knuckles* "Sit down, Data. Let me dispense some sage wisdom from myself and my hero, James T. Kirk."
Riker had such a giddy smirk when advising Data...
That naughty expression of his always makes me lol.
"Commander, may I ask you a question about a romantic ma-"
"I think you should pursue it."
"Nail her! Nail her twice!!"
Picard's like "No...no....I'll be in my not ready room."
😂😂😂😂
“...when I have some, I’ll let you know.”
Knowing that you don't know, now that is *true* wisdom :-)
Picard's statement made me laugh out loud.
@@andrewolson5471 Well, there's a reason why Picard himself is still single at his age.

Married to the enterprise is a really good way to put it. Troi is really good here toi.

Troi is all protective. Riker is all cad. Worf is the Klingon surrogate papa. Picard says... "Nope. Not gonna go there". Epic.
Picard’s answer is awesome. 😂

"Has anything been disturbed?"
"I do not think so."
Proof Spot doesn't actually live with Data.

Data, the emotionless android, just wants to be loved. Wacky.
He wasn’t emotionless. He had emotions, just limited.
Worf sounds like a big brother. She serves under my command if she were to be hurt I would be most displeased.
i reckon worf probably chased jenna's ex boyfriend around the ship with a batleth and threatened to kill him where he stood after the break up and jeff would probably take his chances in the airlock rather than deal with an angry klingon security officer lol
@@peterburke3944 hey that's what big brothers do.
@@peterburke3944 Worf hit Jeff with Klingon pain sticks. Agonizing but not lethal.
@4:03 Hes knows, that smile lol

I like your description of Riker msb!
Worf is sometimes a clunky, stereotypical meathead, but the subtlety he displays here is immaculate.
Riker should have lent Data his personal copy of Captain Kirk's Guide To Women.
Now called "The Kirk-Riker Big Book of Love with Green Hued Humanoid Hotties".
The answer is' LUBE. Lots and lots of Lube.
You are welcome Data.
I love how Riker was immediately so for it!
This episode was gold
Picard spitting truth!
The only member of the crew Data, curiously, didn’t go to was the only one who’d been married- Beverly. Wonder what her advice, as a widow, would’ve been.
I never thought about that. It would have been interesting!
An android with a girlfriend... Always a cool thought
It's a plot later replicated in "The Orville" with more success, I'd say 😉
good thing he didnt ask wesley for advice lol
Riker ia by far my favorite part of this whole thing. Everyone is cautioning Data to tread lightly, be careful of her feelings, don't hurt her, and Riker is like. "Go get it!"
Man, 80% sure Riker is some kind if sex addict.😅
He's the Sam Malone of outer space. Even his one real love is named Deanna (Diane)
It's interesting to note how Riker & Troi have such opposing views on Data dating D'Sora. Might have something to do with their past relationship?
Troi gets even when she turns 45 and rocks Riker's world.
Well, Rikers a bro
Truest thing Picard ever said.
4:04 they better still have high fives in the distant future
O ! Data 's cat .......
Hi, spot!!
Picard was dating two woman at once back in star fleet. What a cad -Q
I think Worf scared him. Lol 😂
What's Worf going to do to Data?! 😂
I don't think you want to know...
@@andrewolson5471 Remember a Klingon tried to headbutt Data, and the Klingon hurt his head

Could use a phaser, but regardless it would hurt Worf and Datas friendship and Data obviously would not want that in the slightest

Never take love advice from a Klingon man unless you're dating a Klingon woman.
Less the police come in and get you
