Chapter 2: The Naked Now:
Author's Note: I hope you all find this as entertaining as I did. I claim no ownership over Star Trek or its characters.
Captain Picard watched and listened as he gave a captain's log on screen.
"Oh, this better not be what I think it is." Picard said.
"Oh, if you mean the time all of you acted like drunken idiots then it is definitely what you feared." Q replied.
"I don't think-"
"You better not refuse to watch it. It will be fun and I'm sure your crew will want to see it."
"Yeh, I do want to see it." Riker commented.
"Well, no harm can come from watching it." Troi commented.
"Fine, we'll watch it." Picard said.
"Good because I really didn't have the time to force you."
They watched as Geordi, Riker, Tasha, and Data walked through the Tchaikovsky.
"Indications of what humans would call a wild party." Data said.
Riker began laughing and Troi smiled.
"I agreed to that. I remember it like it was yesterday." Riker commented.
"How could you disagree with such an accurate statement?" Troi asked.
"It's impossible," Picard commented, "No one should ever dare question the accuracy of an android."
Q smirked, "Well almost impossible."
"Shut up, Q."
"Yeh, shut up Q. You can't question the accuracy of an android end of story." Riker said.
Q rolled his eyes and the episode continued.
"You were right looks like they blew the emergency hatch they were all sucked out into space." Riker on the screen said.
"Correction, sir. That's blown out." Data corrected.
Riker, offscreen laughed a little, "I really miss him correcting all our statements even if it was a little annoying."
Picard and Troi nodded their heads in agreement and the episode continued.
They watched as Geordi ran into the dead women who was in the shower with all of her clothing. Then they watched as Riker reported that the whole crew was dead.
"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. It's continuing mission to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before."
"Do I do that every episode?" Picard asked.
"You do. And I got to say that I like it." Q replied.
"Yeh, I do too. It gives the show a nice touch." Troi commented.
"It sure does." Riker agreed.
"Well, I'm not sure I like it." Picard said.
"Lighten up, Jean-Luc. It's just a television show. It's supposed to be fun or you not any fun?" Q said.
Picard gave Q a stern look but said nothing. The episode continued.
Riker laughed as Data in the episode mentioned to Crusher that he was mentioned in several biomechanical texts.
"Man, if he saw me laughing now he would look at me confused and ask me what I found so humorous." Riker said.
"And then you would probably say "nothing Data" and he'd look at you real confused, but then you'd say nothing else." Troi said.
"Yeh, that's exactly how'd that would go."
The episode continued and they watched as Geordi yelled at Crusher for it being too hot and then playing it off as a joke.
"Uh oh. Looks like Geordi got the sickness." Riker commented off screen.
"Well, don't state the obvious too much Mr. Troi." Picard replied.
Q snicked, "You took on her last name."
"Yeh, I did. Got a problem with it?"
"No, none." Q said smirking. Riker glared at him but said nothing.
The episode continued and they all smiled as Data asked Riker if he believed Dr. Crusher thought he was boasting and Troi laughed a little when Riker said probably. They then all watched as Geordi left Sick Bay. Then, they watched as Wesley used a tractor beam to pick up and move a chair.
"Damn, I can't believe I ever underestimated Wesley to be just some kid." Picard commented.
"Well, he was some kid alright." Riker said with empasis on the word some.
"Why isn't Bever- I mean Dr. Crusher watching this with us?" Picard asked.
"Well, I tried to ask her and she seemed a bit angry about my presence and refused to partake in my little games or at least that's what she told me."
"Perhaps, I should ask her." Picard said before heading off to Sick Bay.
He arrived in Sick Bay and looked around for Dr. Crusher and found her sitting there at her computer rather quietly seemingly only looking busy.
"You know we're all watching Star Trek with Q and would love for you to join us." Picard said.
"I thought Q was just messing around. If he was being serious, then I would definitely join you." Dr. Crusher replied.
"Come on then. We're watching the episode were we all act drunk."
Dr. Crusher smiled, "Sounds fun."
She joined Picard, Troi, Riker, and Q to watch Star Trek. Troi filled her in to all that happened and Q unpaused the episode and the episode continued. They watched as Wesley complained about not being allowed on the bridge.
"He should of been allowed on the bridge." Dr. Crusher commented.
"Yes, I agree but I thought he was a mere child back then." Picard replied.
"How could you think that?"
"I don't know."
They all continued to watch as Geordi left the Crushers's quarters and as Tasha encountered Geordi staring out into space. Then they watched as Geordi asked Tasha to help him see as a human.
"I can't believe we all used to think he could see better than us." Troi said.
"We used to think that because we thought more was better." Picard replied.
"But more was never better."
"No, it was not."
"Shut up and watch the episode." Q said.
They all became quiet and watched as Troi compared Geordi's condition to being intoxicated. Then then watched as Data searched for past Enterprise history. They then watched as Picard ordered him to download the information to Sick Bay. They then watched as Tasha went through Troi's clothing and as she left Troi's quarters. They then all laughed as Data asked Picard what a snotful was.
"Oh, Data why were you so naive?"
"Data was Data. Let's leave it as that." Picard replied. They continued to watch the episode.
Dr. Crusher watched ad she told her son to go back to quarters, "I suspected he had it, but at the time I didn't think it was possible."
"So you let him take control of my ship?"
"I didn't know he was going to do that."
"Well, I can't really blame you. Can I?"
They continued to watch the episode. They watched as Tasha kissed a random guy and Picard raised his eyebrows. Then then watched as Wesley took over the ship. Then they all laughed as Data was interrupted from restating a picular limrick. Q laughed as Tasha called Captain Picard Jean-Luc. Picard then raised his eyebrow as Tasha asked if Data was fully functional. They then watched as Riker took Troi to engineering and as he touched Dr. Crusher. Then they watched as Picard talked to Wesley. Then they watched as Data walked onto the bridge.
"Data, at least you're functioning." Picard said.
"Fully, captain." Data replied.
"If you know what I mean." Riker commented outside of the episode.
Troy laughed, Q smirked, and Picard looked at him sternly, "Please no inappropriate comments."
"Okay sir."
Q laughed as Dr. Crusher practically begged for Picard.
"Shut up." Dr. Crusher commanded.
"Picard and Crusher sitting in a-"
"Q, she said shut up! Now do it!" Picard ordered.
"Okay fine."
They watched the rest of the episode until Data and Wesley saved the Enterprise and Dr. Crusher smiled.
"That's why you should never doubt my Wes." She commented.
Q just smirked, "So want to watch more?"
They all nodded their heads yes.
