This episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation contains scenes of Sexual Assault. Listener discretion is advised.

When an alien race opens an eBay auction for control of the only known stable wormhole which just happens to be in their space, Deanna Troi is swept away by a mysterious bidder named Devinoni Ral. When Ral turns out to also be Betazoid and using his abilities to win the auction, Star Trek makes us think about ethics and morality. But when Ral uses his abilities to get into Troi's bed, Allie and Sarah think about how sexual assaulty this really was.
