In this half of TNG’s pilot, we get to know Picard a little more: capable of defending humanity with philosophical discourse and pretty darn socially awkward. So relatable! We also discuss: whether or not Dr. McCoy's cameo is low-key racist; awkward boners caused by empathic abilities; the pilot’s poor pacing, especially the rush at the end; our joy at the promise of more John de Lancie in future episodes. Body count: No one died in this half!
