[TNG] Timescape

[TNG] Season 6, Episode 25: Timescape

Rating: 4

Thematically there isn’t a ton going on in this one, but it builds a lot of intrigue out of its time-freezing premise. Returning to the Enterprise frozen in battle, and the unfrozen away team trying to figure out the cause based on the alarming still scenes they witness is just good grist for a fun sci-fi story. So it’s mostly about the good idea that drops in the second act, but the structure is strong enough to effectively build tension throughout. Sometimes an episode is just a good time!

Notes:

Don’t go to a conference with TNG crew. They’ll make fun of you the whole way home.
Then time stops, but only here and there.
Picard gets old-hand!
When they return to the Enterprise, it’s frozen in time during a battle!
Riker is sideways. Things seem serious.
Picard gets goofy.
Someone touches Geordi,
A lady that wasn’t actually a Romulan disappears,
And then Data looks at a pot.
