In this episode of The Vern and Bob Star Trek Show, we review “The Most Toys,” one of Star Trek: The Next Generation’s most memorable and unsettling episodes. Centered on Data and the sinister collector Kivas Fajo, this story explores themes of ownership, morality, and what it truly means to be alive.

We break down why “The Most Toys” stands out as a defining Data episode, highlighting his moral dilemma and the chilling performance by Sal Rubinek as Fajo. We also discuss the tragic behind-the-scenes reality surrounding the episode, as Rappaport’s death shortly after filming casts a somber shadow over an already dark story.
