The Enterprise investigates the deaths of the crew of the USS Lantree, who all died of old age. Grant and Rob have not succumbed yet, but this episode does a good job of killing itself off. Much discussion of eugenics, rapid-ageing, and Pulaski.

An away team discovers the dying Doctor Ira Graves, who claims to be Data’s “grandfather. Another ‘Forbidden Planet’ episode, only this one results in a death, but no without a catch. There is discussion of the singularity, the nature of being, and the end play for all of AI. So nothing too deep.

First Broadcast: 23rd Jan 1989.
Quote: “Do I have to stand here and be insulted?”

In this thinly-written episode, the Enterprise crew rescue a “roguish” freighter captain whose ship is malfunctioning, but his presence drags them into an interplanetary feud. Grant and Rob aren’t too impressed, and keep going off topic in this podcast.

Episode synopsis: 12th Dec 1988.
