The Enterprise is tooling along between shuttling an ambassador here, taking an obsessed astrophysicist there when — BANG, the show goes all Special Ops! That’s right, just when this Galaxy Class thing was stable and moving as the stayed and regular-ol weekly thing, it decided to turn the table over and shake all the pieces loose! Captain Picard gets un-captained by the new, and Coxian Jelico! That’s right, our captain’s special jacket gets removed only to be replaced by special-ops-ninja black! Seems our Cap is on a super-secret mission with his crack team of Lieutenant Worf...Ah, okay, I guess that makes sense, and… Beverly Crusher? Bev? Okay, okay… no Data, the super-strong robot? Huh. Not the empath who can read through shit like, I don’t know, traps? Huh! Double Huh! JLP’s team is training in the holodeck for a super secret mission while newly anointed Captain Jelico is Jelico-ing the shit out of the Enterprise and making the crew, and especially our second in command Riker question why he took this second seat in the first place? Just when the wondering gets deep enough, the Cap and his black-tighted team beam planet-side to infiltrate a cave they were fake-infiltrating in the Holodeck – except this cave is a trap and despite Worf’s ongoing struggle with doors, the Captain is alone and captured. Will Jellico-Cox become the next Captain of the Enterprise? Will Troi get comfortable with not exposing herself in revealing “V”necks? Will Jean Luc wind up questioning lights – oh wait, that’s not this episode – it’s next! Find out all of this and more in this exciting episode of “ST:TNGeez, Not Another Star Trek Podcast.
