for all those "Leave the AI in charge" cliche movies and stories where everything goes wrong, I would still trust Data with my life and ship in the same situation.
I mean he is lieutenant commander after all. third in command overall next only to riker and in case of medical incapacitation such as this he took his extra shift in command while doing all other key functions for the ship with absolute stride!
can we all take a moment to recognize how great an actor this guy is? he has had to show annoyance, frustration, confusion, smugness, pride, pleasure, and curiosity, but without showing any emotion. and he always nails it.
True. However the trouble is that this actor could not play anyone else, as far as I know. He spent too much time playing an android with no emotions...
In other episodes it is demonstrated that the Enterprise-D can be largely automated, operating for a short time with as few as two crew members. Data had commandeered the Enterprise and operated it by himself in another episode as well.
This show was all heart: Picard didnt want to leave and go to sleep out of a sense of responsibility. Data knew that and 'ordered' him to go to bed. I miss shows like these. What happened?
Picard touching Data's shoulder at 00:19 is so sublime. Picard is usually not one to show and express his feelings directly to his crew, but that one small gesture is him saying thank you to Data and showing how proud of him he is. It's little, almost passable moments like that that make this series what it is.
The touch told Data that Picard was not himself and worked out he needed sleep. At any other time Data doing his job would not have had Picard tap his shoulder.
I interpreted it as a thanks and good work,( the shoulder tap,) I like that Picard fumbled the tap, because of exhaustion ,his spatial awareness was off kilter.
Just a little detail, I only noticed just now... Picard addresses ALL of his crew as "Mister" or "Doctor" or "Commander" -- 'Mister LeForge', 'Mister Worf', 'Mister Data'... Even though he outranks them, and technically only needs to address them by their last name. It's striking how much respect he shows for all of them, regardless of station.
...Um, in the navy, they address each other by last names, only -- that's the standard requirement. The lower ranks address their commanding officers with titles, but the higher ranks (LPOs, Master Chief, etc) are only required to address their subordinates by last name (or just rank, especially if they're in trouble) What Picard does is most certainly NOT a navy thing.
Really, dude? You're going to turn this into a Tourrets's style outburst, just because I offered information that's different from your experience?

@@Wooktent IDK about the Voyager episode but basically they get stuck in this rift and people can't sleep. As in they can't achieve REM sleep. Eventually people start going a bit crazy.
_Penguins often slide on their tummies over ice and snow._ _This is called tobogganing. Researchers believe they_ _do this for fun and as an efficient way to travel._
12 hours shifts two days in a row can be draining. That was my life for almost 2 years. 12 hour shifts alone on weekends for a remote IT department that receives calls from its many customer companies. Phones needed to be manned 24x7x365, and someone needed to keep an eye on the status of the servers.
3 hours later Picard was reported missing as he had not reached his quarters. After asking the computer where he was, Mr. Data found him in turbo lift 3, 13 decks away from where his quarters were located. He had collapsed asleep into a ball on the floor of the turbo lift. Mr. Data thought it wise not to rouse him. So he put a blanket over Picard and had the turbo-lift deactivated from moving anywhere else until Picard woke up.
was he going to his quarters? I'd assume he'd just catch a few hours or so in his Ready Room. After an incident like this you'd think the crew would be on heavily rotated short shifts before returning to normal patterns.
I was wondering about this too. Picard was so dead-tired, I imagine he either just stumbled to his bed and let himself fall on it, sleeping almost immediately, or decided to take a final sip of earl grey and just fell asleep on his sofa, cup still steaming on the table next to him :-) On the other hand, if any man has the discipline to still brush his teeth and change clothes before going to bed, no matter how tired, it would be Picard.
Thanks. Reminds me of all my time in Japan - i used to wonder if i would simply die in Tokyo at some point while riding the Yamanote line (which is just a giant circle-shaped line on the subway map; the train literally circulates in perpetuity). I wondered if i would just keel over and someone would think i was sleeping and just put a blanket on me to “let me sleep.” Then like a wk later i would finally be discovered just orbiting part of Tokyo on the Yamanote line having “circulated” round and round and round for a week. 😉
@@baomao7243 JY is a hell of a line to fall asleep on. I remember coming back from Tokyo and I passed out, woke up at Ebina station two hours in the wrong direction.
He ended up owning that seat, when he died in the last TNG film his mind was copied into B4 & later his consciousness resurfaced, eventually he became the last captain of the Enterprise-E.
Thats nice for Data, but no other captain after him. Its like cheating no old age or rpomotion to "admiral" i think. i feel for No. 1 like Riker he would want the Enterprise. But i would love to see it as a movie or extended episode. just my 2 cent.
A television series about a spaceship, her crew and their adventures aired 1987 to 1994. And a scene where a crewmate sends his captain to bed already gives so much story and admiration. That is the power of TNG.
+sailtheplains That no emotions thing is a matter of point of view. He acts like a robot throughout and and still seems to have emotions every now and then. In the sum of things he actually does have "emotions".
+Cole Cole I think he was learning to emulate human signals to give the appearance of emotions. Humans can't help but interpret those signals certain ways.
Data seems to try to simulate emotional responses at times when he decides it's appropriate, such as when he raises his voice when he wants a human crewmate to take his suggestion seriously, like when he was trying to force that arrogant Lt. Cmdr to do his job during his brief command in the Klingon civil war sequence, just as an example.
Something many leaders don't understand: when you're commanding good people, you often have to order them to take care of themselves or do things they'd like to do anyway. Competent people tend to discount their own needs and put duty first. Bad leaders tend to ride their people till they break, and then tell you the personnel were weak, lazy, or incompetent. (Lessons learned as a public school teacher.)
Data must of been an amazing person to have on board, a security blanket like no other. Don't worry, my super strong, super smart, human loving, Android Federation Officer will take care of this. God I love Data.

“We have to dream to survive.” - Dr. Beverly Crusher This is both a true statement, and one of the most wonderful sentiments ever expressed in all of Star Trek.
The point of this scene is that until this point, NONE of the crew had been able to sleep for DAYS, so it really is fitting that they were finally able to go Up The Wooden Hill to Bedfordshire. In fact, I feel ready for bed just watching this clip!
Foebane72 Well of course the whole episode is silly. You can survive without REM sleep and without experiencing hallucinations and paranoia. Alcoholics and addicts do it all the time. But the story is still fun. I actually like this episode.

I simply did not understand the comment enough to know what the content was. I can tell its some sort of negative response but i have no idea what your saying is bad or wrong.
The look of pride on Data's face there, in the last few seconds of this clip, really continues his growth as an individual. He knows he did well, but for the first time, pride of his accomplishments throughout the episode weigh (positively) on his growth.
That's why I don't buy it when Data claims not to have emotions. He just doesn't recognize his emotions for what they are since he never believed that he had them and because Dr. Soong created him to be way more mellow and reserved than Lore.
*"my android is just a stupid phone"* Could be worse, you could have a completely unrepairable phone made by a corporation that then slows down their older model to get you to buy their newer model and takes 30% of all sales of applications on their phone. Also, the new phone costs $1000 and it can't even act as a storage device with your computer.
I would like to note that according to Star Trek Online and the rest of the ST expanded universe, Data IS now the Captain of the Enterprise. Not temporary acting Captain, THE Captain. Captain Data. And he enjoys the full confidence of his crew. (For bonus points, the chief engineer? Nog, from Deep Space Nine ^.^ )
you have to be careful as data is not the captain of the enterprise during the time frame of Sto but beforehand..( no missions during sto have data as captain but a different person) also in the extended universe there are 2 parralel futures, the 1st the events of spock prime and the hobus supernova (createing the franchise reboot and sto portrays the future of the universe spock prime leaves) but there are other future events from TNG set out by novels etc that predate the reboot plotline that are completely different as well..
***** Data dies in nemesis but is resurected in both versions of the future.. by a project headed by geordi laforge in the sto timeline or.. by a meeting with a robot version of dr soong in the older extended universe
I have seen comments from people complaining that the night crew should have taken over, but they miss the point of this episode. According to the doctor, everyone needs to dream to survive. No one human on the ship was able to sleep properly, therefore everyone on the ship was running on pure adrenaline with no proper REM sleep for an extended period of time. They all would have needed a full period of rest and REM sleep to fully recuperate from their physical and mental exhaustion. This would have included everyone on the night crew. Data has proven on multiple occasions that he is capable of monitoring every station on the ship by himself. As long as there were no emergencies, I see no problem with him doing so.
He would have read him "Lt. Com. Data and Starfleet Incident Report For [current stardate]: Final Disposition USS Brittain." Seriously Data is probably the guy that handles all the tedious paperwork. Everyone else hates it and he doesn't mind.
voltz15 in the final season they 'sort of' addressed one aspect of this, I believe the episode was called "Lower Decks" and the entire episode was following a group of lower rank crew members from their POV.
demon adressed this thts why troi was in command and why instead of that normal guy at helm (not wes the other guy) i was the woman (not ro eitheier) who was killed in the enitial cipling blow
it's such a luxury the enterprise has in having data..doesn't need sleep, food, rest, morale boost, love, strongest/fastest/highest knowledge and computation on par with the ship, immune to radiation or lack of breathable air for away missions...etc.
he's basically the literal deus ex machina of the show but just as often acts as an insurmountable obstacle as well as "the only thing that can save us" in some episodes.
There's a reason Cmdr. Maddox wants to dissassemble this guy to figure out how to make more. Data is an invaluable asset to Starfleet, he could even achieve Dr. Daystrom's dream of no more need for human crews in Starfleet vessels. But if you get too enthusiastic remember -- Lore happened too.
If they could ever get the process down, Datas would increase at an exponential rate. 1 Data could create another Data, then those 2 create 2 more, then those 4 create 4 more, etc. If Star Trek were real, that would absolutely be the military's #1 priority. It'd make Starfleet one of the most powerful groups in the Galaxy, or totally annihilate them. And we all know that if the military has even a chance for absolute tactical supremacy over their rivals, they're going to give it a shot, regardless of the consequences (*cough A-Bomb cough*).
It’s amazing how much humanity they managed to give Data while still making it very believable that he is an android without emotion and an imperfect understanding of human culture and experiences.
Data : Pleasant dreams, SIr Piccard : Thats.... a human expression Data Spock : Hmm fascinating. Mc'Coy : Green blooded Vulcans and fake star fleet officers. Back in my day ...
"Captain, I have reviewed my database of common earth customs, and perhaps you may sleep better if I gently tucked you in and read you what is colloquially called, 'a bed-time sto-" NO, COMMANDER THAT WILL BE ALL!
The fact that Data can order all crew to bed and run the ship (albeit with likely no incident whatsoever , major or minor) shows just how advanced these ships are to be run by just one person alone if necessary.
Acting Captain Data has a nice sound to it. Pretty cool seeing him issuing Picard an order too. I always thought this scene was neat. The other scene I always liked was the 1st season episode with the Binars when Data ordered "Abandon ship". I think that episode was really Data's first big command decision having to order "Abandon ship" without being able to consult the Captain.
I always loved the interplay between Data and Picard. Those two, along with Captain Janeway, Tuvok and original Captain Kirk are my top 5 favourite star trek characters. I think if I was pushed to make a choiice Data is my favourite all time character though.
I am seeing some people here thinking that he walked into his ready room. He did not. There are two doors, and have always been, in that area, one is a turbolift, it is the one on the right, and then the one on the left is his ready room.
This is like one of the few times anyone in Star Trek ever says "thank you" to somebody for doing something for them. I get they don't HAVE to thank people because they're "the leader" and people get put in the brig for not following orders, but still, it wouldn't kill them to say "thanks" ever now and then.
That would have made a lovely backdoor pilot to a new Star Trek series set in a future where Data is Captain of the Enterprise. Running concurrently with TNG, I can imagine the two series conveying a poignant and beautiful sense of life as a being who does not age.
So glad I grew up when this series was new. TNG will always be my favorite Trek series. The characters and the chemistry between them are masterful. Another commenter said “this show was all heart” n I totally agree with them.
Damn, I didn't know there were two episodes where he did this! I was expecting the episode where Data ordered Picard to bed and then Picard suggested Riker be put in the brig and Data agreed.
Stewart's acting here is great. His voice, his manner. Not overdone, not hammy, but conveys quiet exhaustion while still trying to cover it up and do his duty
"Set a course, dude." "Captain, the night crew hasn't started their shift yet. I order you to go to bed; it is far past your bedtime and there will be alcohol on the bridge."
I miss real Star Trek. With Abrams and CBS, I realize that ST is trying to appeal to a younger audience, but it has lost it's soul and it's nobility. The golden age of Star Trek is gone.
The reason is because Star Trek has always been written for television. That is where that show shined and excelled. Trying to make Trek blockbuster films competing with other films has always been a mistake. Yes there have been a couple good movies but Star Trek has always been best on the small screen.
I've never watched TNG. I was born in '87, so I remember my older brother watching a lot. Been watching these clips, and now I really wanna dive in. I bet it's gonna be a wild ride.
One thing I've always loved about Star Trek is how the main crew would have someone within their ranks that had special powers or abilities that would come in use if ever needed, in Picard's situation they have data who is by extension more than able to captain and command a starship as well as sufficiently operate it faster than any of the personnel on the ship, gotta love that .
bigphil2695 Which is strange because that is defiantly the door he walked through to his ready room for years Kinda a big fuck up on the production end.
Not to worry! Data is still alive. Remember when Data gave B-4 all of his memories. Well B-4 eventually evolved to be Data again. He was slow at first and couldn't connect One thing to another but eventually, his nural net got more advanced and he became data again. It's in the new comic series how he later becomes the Captain of the enterprise.
Once it's on course, Enterprise can fly itself. The crew man their posts in case something goes wrong that requires a human response. You might have noticed they have a lot of time to shoot the breeze while they should be working sometimes..
Then Picard is in bed, contemplating life, telling Data that night has been a great night he's had in a long while only to be stabbed not by Data but Lore.
for all those "Leave the AI in charge" cliche movies and stories where everything goes wrong, I would still trust Data with my life and ship in the same situation.
Yes. Also, Bishop from Aliens.
ParaDemise I wouldn't trust Bishop with a dollar.
Maybe Cortana from the Halo series or EDI from the Mass Effect series?
ParaDemise YES, BISHOP, OH, MY GOD!! :D
More like Wheatley from Portal 2 and HAL 9000

@@kevindavis5966 Data can even interface with the ship directly if I remember correctly. He's essentially the crew-member equivalent of autopilot

third shift is 2300 until 0700, Data usually worked that shift unless working on whatever was going on. Worf would take command, then Troi or Crusher
I thought the night shift always partied?

Funny this should pop up in my recommendations right when i get home after a 14 work day. Thank you mr. Data, i think i'll get some sleep
Wow. You did 14 work? Actually...is that a lot, or not?
@@siler7
It's a lot for most people. 8 hours is more typical for most people in America. Though 10 hours is becoming more common.
12 hours shifts two days in a row can be draining.
That was my life for almost 2 years. 12 hour shifts alone on weekends for a remote IT department that receives calls from its many customer companies.
Phones needed to be manned 24x7x365, and someone needed to keep an eye on the status of the servers.
Star Trek:ASMR
Pleasant dreams, sir.
3 hours later Picard was reported missing as he had not reached his quarters. After asking the computer where he was, Mr. Data found him in turbo lift 3, 13 decks away from where his quarters were located. He had collapsed asleep into a ball on the floor of the turbo lift. Mr. Data thought it wise not to rouse him. So he put a blanket over Picard and had the turbo-lift deactivated from moving anywhere else until Picard woke up.
was he going to his quarters? I'd assume he'd just catch a few hours or so in his Ready Room. After an incident like this you'd think the crew would be on heavily rotated short shifts before returning to normal patterns.
@@TheTurnipKing That was turbo lift three he walked in to. His waiting room was next to it.
I was wondering about this too. Picard was so dead-tired, I imagine he either just stumbled to his bed and let himself fall on it, sleeping almost immediately, or decided to take a final sip of earl grey and just fell asleep on his sofa, cup still steaming on the table next to him :-)
On the other hand, if any man has the discipline to still brush his teeth and change clothes before going to bed, no matter how tired, it would be Picard.
Thanks. Reminds me of all my time in Japan - i used to wonder if i would simply die in Tokyo at some point while riding the Yamanote line (which is just a giant circle-shaped line on the subway map; the train literally circulates in perpetuity). I wondered if i would just keel over and someone would think i was sleeping and just put a blanket on me to “let me sleep.” Then like a wk later i would finally be discovered just orbiting part of Tokyo on the Yamanote line having “circulated” round and round and round for a week. 😉
@@baomao7243 JY is a hell of a line to fall asleep on. I remember coming back from Tokyo and I passed out, woke up at Ebina station two hours in the wrong direction.
Data just wanted to sit in the big chair.
He ended up owning that seat, when he died in the last TNG film his mind was copied into B4 & later his consciousness resurfaced, eventually he became the last captain of the Enterprise-E.
Thats nice for Data, but no other captain after him. Its like cheating no old age or rpomotion to "admiral" i think. i feel for No. 1 like Riker he would want the Enterprise.
But i would love to see it as a movie or extended episode.
just my 2 cent.
The only reason Data was the last captain of Enterprise-E was because Enterprise-E was destroyed replaced by Enterprise-F

Aw....that small touch Picard gives to Data on his shoulder. Data is so considerate of everyone else. Picard is like: dude....thank you.
+sailtheplains He has no emotions he is just doing his duties.
+Cole Cole Well yeah, he has no emotion. He's an android. Being considerate isn't an emotion.
Data can also be sarcastic and can express gratitude.
+sailtheplains That no emotions thing is a matter of point of view. He acts like a robot throughout and and still seems to have emotions every now and then. In the sum of things he actually does have "emotions".
+Cole Cole I think he was learning to emulate human signals to give the appearance of emotions. Humans can't help but interpret those signals certain ways.
Data seems to try to simulate emotional responses at times when he decides it's appropriate, such as when he raises his voice when he wants a human crewmate to take his suggestion seriously, like when he was trying to force that arrogant Lt. Cmdr to do his job during his brief command in the Klingon civil war sequence, just as an example.
Something many leaders don't understand: when you're commanding good people, you often have to order them to take care of themselves or do things they'd like to do anyway. Competent people tend to discount their own needs and put duty first. Bad leaders tend to ride their people till they break, and then tell you the personnel were weak, lazy, or incompetent. (Lessons learned as a public school teacher.)

+Barrie Reid Same! I was 9 when it first started airing and remembered what the old ship looked like and was amazed with the new ship.
When you also consider that the ship you are seeing is an extremely detailed model and not CGI it really makes it all the more impressive.
It still is. Looks better than any other ship in Star Trek (or in scifi in general). Everything in that ship just fit perfectly together.

I’m giggling on the thought of Data singing “Soft Kitty, Warm Kitty “ to Picard.
Data: "As acting captain, my final order is for you to tape your eye lids open."
Picard: "Very well, make it so."
Tape ?!?!? Doesn't anybody use toothpicks anymore ??

“We have to dream to survive.”
- Dr. Beverly Crusher
This is both a true statement, and one of the most wonderful sentiments ever expressed in all of Star Trek.
Now imagine Data reading "Go the Fuck to Sleep" to the crew.
That would be GLORIOUS! XD

300+ years into the future......
It'd technically be classified as "Classic Literature".
The point of this scene is that until this point, NONE of the crew had been able to sleep for DAYS, so it really is fitting that they were finally able to go Up The Wooden Hill to Bedfordshire. In fact, I feel ready for bed just watching this clip!
Correction: they were able to sleep, but not to reach REM stage, thus resulting in hallucinations, paranoia, etc.
Peter Rouleau
Same thing, I would've thought.
No, it's possible to sleep without reaching REM stage. A drunken blackout is one way.
rofyle
Then, by your own logic, the whole episode is silly! And I don't like to hear that.
Foebane72
Well of course the whole episode is silly. You can survive without REM sleep and without experiencing hallucinations and paranoia. Alcoholics and addicts do it all the time. But the story is still fun. I actually like this episode.

Data and Spock. Constantly showing them what human compassion truly looks like.
If not for those two characters, neither show would have been successful. The emotional humans needed something to bounce their feelings off of.
Awww Data. He is so nice.
You have no idea.
Plot twist: Data is actually Lore and then sets a course to rendezvous with a new Crystalline Entity.

Data then plots a course for the Ferengi Robot sex moon before Picard wakes up.

If memory serves correctly, there was an episode in OTS that was almost like that, with android "companions".
OTS = OST in French?
Tos
Johnny Tek of course there was. Haha OTS was just s wet dream for what's-his-creep.
The look of pride on Data's face there, in the last few seconds of this clip, really continues his growth as an individual. He knows he did well, but for the first time, pride of his accomplishments throughout the episode weigh (positively) on his growth.
That's why I don't buy it when Data claims not to have emotions. He just doesn't recognize his emotions for what they are since he never believed that he had them and because Dr. Soong created him to be way more mellow and reserved than Lore.
@@Elly3981alexithymia. It is a common autistic trait, which is why so many of us relate to Data.

maybe your phone doesn't work because you don't have data.
*"my android is just a stupid phone"*
Could be worse, you could have a completely unrepairable phone made by a corporation that then slows down their older model to get you to buy their newer model and takes 30% of all sales of applications on their phone. Also, the new phone costs $1000 and it can't even act as a storage device with your computer.
Jean-Luc respects the chain of command.
It's so relaxing to think of everyone sleeping while Data chills on the bridge. Great episode, that turbo lift scene was haunting.
I would like to note that according to Star Trek Online and the rest of the ST expanded universe, Data IS now the Captain of the Enterprise. Not temporary acting Captain, THE Captain. Captain Data. And he enjoys the full confidence of his crew.
(For bonus points, the chief engineer? Nog, from Deep Space Nine ^.^ )
Is this noted in any of the books? I used to play STO and got out of it after a while.
you have to be careful as data is not the captain of the enterprise during the time frame of Sto but beforehand..( no missions during sto have data as captain but a different person) also in the extended universe there are 2 parralel futures, the 1st the events of spock prime and the hobus supernova (createing the franchise reboot and sto portrays the future of the universe spock prime leaves) but there are other future events from TNG set out by novels etc that predate the reboot plotline that are completely different as well..
***** Data dies in nemesis but is resurected in both versions of the future.. by a project headed by geordi laforge in the sto timeline or.. by a meeting with a robot version of dr soong in the older extended universe
Richard Singleton Wasn't that robot B4 from nemesis?
It is, In both universes data is resurected from B4..
Data has a heart , he cares and he love his people.
That's why the Q Continuum allowed him to laugh at his own folly.
Data is so cute and sweet
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philotimo
I have seen comments from people complaining that the night crew should have taken over, but they miss the point of this episode.
According to the doctor, everyone needs to dream to survive. No one human on the ship was able to sleep properly, therefore everyone on the ship was running on pure adrenaline with no proper REM sleep for an extended period of time. They all would have needed a full period of rest and REM sleep to fully recuperate from their physical and mental exhaustion. This would have included everyone on the night crew.
Data has proven on multiple occasions that he is capable of monitoring every station on the ship by himself. As long as there were no emergencies, I see no problem with him doing so.
Picard should have said to Data, "I'll only go to bed if you promise to read me a bedtime story".
He would have read him "Lt. Com. Data and Starfleet Incident Report For [current stardate]: Final Disposition USS Brittain."
Seriously Data is probably the guy that handles all the tedious paperwork. Everyone else hates it and he doesn't mind.
Love how it looks like Data is grounding Picard in the thumbnail.
No, bad captain! Go sit in the brig and think about what you've done!
I love that little slip when Picard puts his hand on Data's shoulder. Like it was a bit of a struggle to just do that.
time to summon the night crew!
+bigludo22 BEER ME!!!
+MrDolzakhyron To run Darmok.
I've always been wondering exactly who are the people who take over and why they never get any stories?
voltz15 in the final season they 'sort of' addressed one aspect of this, I believe the episode was called "Lower Decks" and the entire episode was following a group of lower rank crew members from their POV.
demon adressed this thts why troi was in command and why instead of that normal guy at helm (not wes the other guy) i was the woman (not ro eitheier) who was killed in the enitial cipling blow
it's such a luxury the enterprise has in having data..doesn't need sleep, food, rest, morale boost, love, strongest/fastest/highest knowledge and computation on par with the ship, immune to radiation or lack of breathable air for away missions...etc.
he's basically the literal deus ex machina of the show but just as often acts as an insurmountable obstacle as well as "the only thing that can save us" in some episodes.
Yeah... they really have it good. My data runs out every middle of the month. :P
There's a reason Cmdr. Maddox wants to dissassemble this guy to figure out how to make more. Data is an invaluable asset to Starfleet, he could even achieve Dr. Daystrom's dream of no more need for human crews in Starfleet vessels.
But if you get too enthusiastic remember -- Lore happened too.
If they could ever get the process down, Datas would increase at an exponential rate. 1 Data could create another Data, then those 2 create 2 more, then those 4 create 4 more, etc.
If Star Trek were real, that would absolutely be the military's #1 priority. It'd make Starfleet one of the most powerful groups in the Galaxy, or totally annihilate them. And we all know that if the military has even a chance for absolute tactical supremacy over their rivals, they're going to give it a shot, regardless of the consequences (*cough A-Bomb cough*).
@@Fermion.. Like what happened with the Kalon from the orville.
The camera at the end + the music + Data's stance make it look like ordering someone to bed is the most heroic thing one could ever do :D
Man I wish the show Picard could catch this magic.
Sadly it was written by people who never watched scenes like this, they turned it into a dark action series with cheap drama.
Data is so great. His sacrifice in Nemesis still brings tears to my eyes
Due to ST:NG he became Oxford proffesor after servicer in star flet. So I belive his death was not canon.
He imprinted himself on B4; easy fix.
This is why I can't read comments for shows I'm watching
@@lewiscain-mcaliece1805 it doesn’t matter none of the movies are canon after first contact
@@brachygobius_xanthozonus the timelines from All Good Things are alternate timelines created by Q, therefore, they are not canon. Data’s death is.
It’s amazing how much humanity they managed to give Data while still making it very believable that he is an android without emotion and an imperfect understanding of human culture and experiences.
You know as soon as Picard left Data put on some 2 Chains and got out that green good good!!!
😍💨
I dont care what anyone says, this series is gold.
Wait, TNG was being re-run on TV at the same time at Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares? What a throwback!
Data : Pleasant dreams, SIr
Piccard : Thats.... a human expression Data
Spock : Hmm fascinating.
Mc'Coy : Green blooded Vulcans and fake star fleet officers. Back in my day ...
Or mccoy would be like, Why you green blooded, Then Spock would lift his eyebrow.
"Clockwork officers" would be more appropriate for McCoy
I thought Picard was gonna ask Data to read him a story and tuck him in.
I'm surprised Patrick Stewart didn't think of that as an outtake.
:)
You do not know Picard then.
Alright but consider;
data actually does it
If Data starts counting sheeps its gonna take long :-)
"Captain, I have reviewed my database of common earth customs, and perhaps you may sleep better if I gently tucked you in and read you what is colloquially called, 'a bed-time sto-"
NO, COMMANDER THAT WILL BE ALL!
makes me smile every time, the respect they had for each other was amazing.
The fact that Data can order all crew to bed and run the ship (albeit with likely no incident whatsoever , major or minor) shows just how advanced these ships are to be run by just one person alone if necessary.
It all works so well until a Bird-of-Prey takes out the control system your chief engineer rigged!
4 seconds later: "Computer initiate self-destruct"
Acting Captain Data has a nice sound to it. Pretty cool seeing him issuing Picard an order too. I always thought this scene was neat. The other scene I always liked was the 1st season episode with the Binars when Data ordered "Abandon ship". I think that episode was really Data's first big command decision having to order "Abandon ship" without being able to consult the Captain.
I always loved the interplay between Data and Picard. Those two, along with Captain Janeway, Tuvok and original Captain Kirk are my top 5 favourite star trek characters.
I think if I was pushed to make a choiice Data is my favourite all time character though.
Data felt an individual moment of pride, at the end.
I miss this show so much. Learned so many life lessons from this show as a child.
I am seeing some people here thinking that he walked into his ready room. He did not. There are two doors, and have always been, in that area, one is a turbolift, it is the one on the right, and then the one on the left is his ready room.
911ambulancegirl whats this episode called?
Night Terrors.
What is a ready room? I never watched TNG
Picard's office.
He was so tired he could only make it to his couch
This is like one of the few times anyone in Star Trek ever says "thank you" to somebody for doing something for them.
I get they don't HAVE to thank people because they're "the leader" and people get put in the brig for not following orders, but still, it wouldn't kill them to say "thanks" ever now and then.
Data should have sat in the Captain's chair and then camera pulls back and out of the ship.
That would have made a lovely backdoor pilot to a new Star Trek series set in a future where Data is Captain of the Enterprise. Running concurrently with TNG, I can imagine the two series conveying a poignant and beautiful sense of life as a being who does not age.
Data is so sweet
He's adorable
Seriously, there aren't many feelings out there than sinking into your bed when you're dead on your feet.
So glad I grew up when this series was new. TNG will always be my favorite Trek series. The characters and the chemistry between them are masterful.
Another commenter said “this show was all heart” n I totally agree with them.
Damn, I didn't know there were two episodes where he did this! I was expecting the episode where Data ordered Picard to bed and then Picard suggested Riker be put in the brig and Data agreed.
Stewart's acting here is great. His voice, his manner. Not overdone, not hammy, but conveys quiet exhaustion while still trying to cover it up and do his duty
"Set a course, dude."
"Captain, the night crew hasn't started their shift yet. I order you to go to bed; it is far past your bedtime and there will be alcohol on the bridge."
😂
0:45 shouldn't that door have been to the Captain's ready room, not a turbolift?
Data immediately slid around the bridge in his socks, lip sincing to "I Feel Good".
Data peeks in Picard’s quarters, sees the Captain sleeping peacefully...
DATA: “Awwah, bless his little heart.
Could be worse, Voyager's Doctor might have tried to sing everyone to sleep.

I miss real Star Trek. With Abrams and CBS, I realize that ST is trying to appeal to a younger audience, but it has lost it's soul and it's nobility. The golden age of Star Trek is gone.
The reason is because Star Trek has always been written for television. That is where that show shined and excelled. Trying to make Trek blockbuster films competing with other films has always been a mistake. Yes there have been a couple good movies but Star Trek has always been best on the small screen.
The ambitious robot finally makes his move and sails the enterprise straight to romulan space to sell it to them
I've never watched TNG. I was born in '87, so I remember my older brother watching a lot. Been watching these clips, and now I really wanna dive in. I bet it's gonna be a wild ride.
I just watched it with my girlfriend who saw this when she was little. And it now became one of my favorite shows. Definitely recommend!
I believe Data will be that one character in Star Trek history that proves even a machine can have a soul.
We are machines made of carbon and water, and we have souls.
Ask anyone that's loved a motorcycle , or a car. The same make, model and day off the line, become different individuals after some years.
Tali-Zorah... does this... unit... have..?
Good thing none of the crew watched the ending to Alien Covenant.
One thing I've always loved about Star Trek is how the main crew would have someone within their ranks that had special powers or abilities that would come in use if ever needed, in Picard's situation they have data who is by extension more than able to captain and command a starship as well as sufficiently operate it faster than any of the personnel on the ship, gotta love that .

Not to worry! Data is still alive. Remember when Data gave B-4 all of his memories. Well B-4 eventually evolved to be Data again. He was slow at first and couldn't connect One thing to another but eventually, his nural net got more advanced and he became data again. It's in the new comic series how he later becomes the Captain of the enterprise.
Damn, Stewart really put the right acting into place - I could feel like he had been up for days with eyelids ready to shut.
To all toddlers: this is how to properly respond when ordered to go to bed.
lol, data can just run the enterprise by his lonesome :P
Once it's on course, Enterprise can fly itself. The crew man their posts in case something goes wrong that requires a human response. You might have noticed they have a lot of time to shoot the breeze while they should be working sometimes..
Pleasant dreams? Ok now I'm going to use it.
Best orders ever.
Then Picard is in bed, contemplating life, telling Data that night has been a great night he's had in a long while only to be stabbed not by Data but Lore.
