The Live Long and Podcast crew revisits Season 3, Episode 13 of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "Deja Q" (1990), as part of their ongoing rewatch series. When Q is stripped of his powers and forced to live as a mortal aboard the Enterprise, the crew must decide whether to trust him while racing to save Bre’el IV’s moon from crashing. With the Calamarain circling for revenge and Data showing what true humanity looks like, this episode delivers comedy, chaos, and one of Trek’s most memorable moral lessons.
