Moral :

Games :

"Computer Games" can be addictive and are a very bad thing.

YATI :

Crusher calls Data to sickbay in order to incapacitate him, then covers by claiming that he came in complaining of a malfunction before shutting down. Yet Geordi was right next to Data when Crusher called him, so why doesn't he object to this cover story? Also, the torpedo launcher which fired a phaser beam in Darmok can now emit tractor beams!

Great Moment :

Data arriving and de-programming everybody on the bridge.

Body Count :

None.

Factoid :

This is Ashley Judd's second and final appearence as Lefler. A third appearence in "The First Duty" was hoped for, but couldn't be arranged.

Plotline

The Ktarians attempt to seize control of the Enterprise via a mind controlling game. Wesley Crusher saves the day.
