Notes

That is the complete plot here, there's no B plot.

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek TNG Ep 50 - The Ensigns of Command - 2 Oct 1989 2/2 It's one we've seen used in Trek before. Not an original idea, but it worked well dramatically. Some parts remind me of current real world political stances. Actually enjoyed this - helped I didn't remember it at all.
