Surely someone else on the 1000+ crew of Enterprise D was qualified to tend to Broccoli’s psychological needs. Also, shouldn’t his actions have resulted in a court martial or at least a demotion?
- He actually did say to keep one program at the end of the episode.
- It took place in Holodeck 4 😬, IIRC, but whatever. I’m the one who is crazy and keeps editing my memes four times and reposting them because I noticed a spelling error. Lol.
Oh, believe me, I’ve been called out several times for such errors. Corrected most of them, but it gets tedious. I try to be more astute about it, yet the brigades will always make themselves known. In this case, I used Holodeck 3 as it’s the one most referred to in the series.
I wouldn’t have noticed it except for a recent RLM video I posted here specifically about a lot of the errors you see in TNG Blu-rays, lol
Still the most uncomfortable looking outfit to me. More pressure points than a bra and no support. Take it off and she’d just have two big red triangles on her chest.
And in his OTHER other holodeck program:
So Barclay was on the Enterprise. Wouldn’t that imply that he was one of the best Starfleet had to offer? Dude was probably a fuckin genius on engineering, but like, he just wanted to do that. They kept trying to get him to do other stuff. And fuck you Wesley dude’s fuckin nervous don’t make fun of him.
Holodeck stuff was still creepy tho.
Talented? Without a doubt. Troubled? Absolutely. Tends to go hand in hand with specialized, technical work. Westley’s his own variation of nutcase, but he’d been used to being rewarded for his accomplishments and is known to belittle others he might deem competitors. There’s a pointed attention to a lack of social awareness of various characters on Trek, but without any of the back end of how to handle those situations in a healthy way.
Gordie created a fake version of a real person who was married and then proceed to fall in love with it.
Right? At some point you have to wonder if culturally, it’s just expected that federation officers with holodeck access will just make versions of real people and not even think twice about it. Which, while creepy to us, of that’s the world Barclay lives in, then it’s slightly less creepy.
Still creepy though.
Wasn’t he the first person from the Alpha quadrant that managed to regain contact with Voyager? No small feat I imagine.
EDIT: Ok, i was the second time contact with Voyager happened, but still.
He was the one who established communications with Voyager on purpose, as well as maintaining it long-term. That first time it happened was a total fluke of luck and also in the past.
