Let's get horror up in our Star Treks! We really need to take more naps, you know, as a society, and that is proven true here in this episode as the Enterprise is stuck in a Tyken's Rift along with a ship of death. The starfleet officers went all murderous on each other on the USS Brittain, gruesomely so, except for a catatonic Betazed. Troi's dreams start to get as funky as her nightclothing, while the rest of the crew starts acting wonky, except for Data. He's the hero of this one, as everyone know androids don't dream of electric sheep. Jimmie hosts this one and edited it to a T.

Hoo boy, this one's a doozy. Kate keeps us laughing and loathing nearly everything Geordi LaForge does and says in this episode. Dr. Leah Brahms returns as her not-holodeck self and Geordi tries to date her at every turn. The problem is not that Dr. Brahms is married, which takes a Jeffries tube conversation to get that factoid out there, but that Geordi violates nearly every privacy law we have. This may be the first acknowledgement the franchise makes that the holodeck can be used for sexy times, and it doesn't get better from there. Good thing we have such great time making fun of this episode for you!

Next up is s4e17 "Night Terrors" with Jimmie hosting!

There's something funny about this one. Star Trek always focuses on the bridge crew of the Enterprise, according to Mean Gene Roddenberry, but the producers successfully switched up the POV to the Malkorians. The cultural bridge crew of Re:Engage also gets some new POVs as Geoffrey Zatkin (@GeoffreyZatkin on Twitter) and Matthew Krol (@EmperorMSK on Twitter) from the YouTube channels Extra Credits and Extra History join to dish on Riker's lies. There was a lot to unpack - including amazing guest star Bebe Neuwirth from Cheers and Chicago fame, a bona fide Not Ready for Primetime Player as the chancellor, and everyone's favorite hotel administrator from Ghostbusters as a conservative Malkorian. Jimmie G sadly couldn't make this recording so Greg had to fill in poorly on the background of this episode.

Next up is s4e16 "Galaxy's Child" with Kate hosting!

If it wasn't for that dang moss, those Paxans would have gotten away with it! So Picard asks for the chance to do it once more, with feeling. Special Guest Shareef Jackson returns to talk about this unique Star Trek episode, and as a new father, he's also never sure if he was unconscious for 30 seconds or much longer. Whoopi Goldberg is woefully misused in the Dixon Hill re-visit, but we're glad the secretary stays consistent. Data is sus, but he gets a sweet voiceover. Greg hosts this episode and talks himself out of liking it by the end.

Next up is s4e15 "First Contact" and we don't know who is hosting!

Is this real life? Or is this just fantasy? We go down to Georgia, er, Ventax II to visit with Ardra, who's apparently a devil-like figure that's come to collect on a thousand-year-old debt. She's got earthquakes, she's got riots, and she's got camp bleeding out of her eyeballs! Picard wants nothing to do with her flim-flam show, and he assembles a crack team of investigators to try Ardra in the court of Data. They salvaged this script from the failed Star Trek series Phase Two to become something of an anomaly this season, a comedic romp more suitable to the Swinging 60s than the Sensitive 90s pony tail guy. Kate sings us in with this one!

Next up is s4e14 "Clues" hosted by Greg with special guest Shareef Jackson returning!

Meet the Cardassians! We welcome a very special guest to Re:Engage with his own performance introducing this culture to the Star Trek canon. It's incredible how much impact one drink of danar in 10 Forward with O'Brien has on the franchise. The accomplished actor Time Winters joins and delights with stories from the set filming "The Wounded," an extremely on-the-nose episode investigating Captain Ben Maxwell's lingering animosity for one's former enemies. The fact that this episode aired when the Gulf War began doesn't feel like an accident. Erik hosts our bridge crew and we collectively make Time blush for all the compliments we give him on this trailblazing performance. Time is definitely much nicer than Gul Macet.

Re:Engage is taking a few weeks to record more episodes. Next up is s4e13 "Devil's Due" and we don't know who hosting yet!

This episode inspired both the Beatles' song "A Day in the Life" and the entire run of the sitcom of the 90s "Seinfeld." And that's canon! Data's voiceover diary entries written to Dr. Bruce Maddox are the wrapper of the slice of life episode, the first of its kind for the franchise. But this nothingburger day is nothing but - so many things happen! Including the wedding of O'Brien to Keiko Ishikawa, a birth, a Sherlock Holmes reference, a hair coloring, and a fake death ... of a Salesman in the original Klingon. Truly one of the funniest episodes of Star Trek, which Greg mentions as host ad nauseum.

Next up is s4e12 "The Wounded" hosted by Erik!

Marina Sirtis pulled the short straw on this script. What should have been a great vehicle for her to show her chops ends up falling a little flat. GET IT!? The Enterprise is pulled along in the wake of what the bridge crew discover to be two-dimensional beings. At the same time, Counselor Troi loses the ability to feel others' feelings and to have any rational response to those things happening at the same time. She resigns as counselor - until she gets a great talking to from Guinan and saves the day by coming up with the moth to the flame analogy. Jimmie hosts this one, wishing it was better.

Next up is s4e11 "Data's Day" hosted by Greg!

Let's all sing "Say Goodbye to Wes Crusher" to the tune "Say Goodbye to Hollywood" by Billy Joel. Or not. The meter doesn't really match up, kinda like how this episode's plot doesn't match the gravitas of Wesley's final episode. Picard wants Wesley to come with him on some cockamamie miner's quarrel mission right before the boy is to ship out to Starfleet Academy. They've been dangling this for years, but now he's finally out of the picture. Jimmie couldn't be happier. But then the shuttlecraft they're on crashes in the desert and Wesley has to tricorder his way out of things while Picard actually tells him nice things for once. Too bad the old man waited until he was literally dying to do so. Oh, and there's a gruff old(er) captain too. It's a mess. Enjoy!

Next up is s4e10 "The Loss" hosted by Jimmie!

Riker will have to grow old eventually people, let's get it over with. Here the crew jumps 16 years into the future but Riker's son recreates the Enterprise slightly imperfectly. Peace with the Romulans? Ferengi ensigns? Marrying a simulation? Well, in sci-fi, anything is possible. The writing here goes out of its way to feel original, and the performances by Frakes and guest kid Chris Demetral as Jean-Luc Riker. Too bad Tomalak couldn't figure out what to do with his hands.
