Whether you think this episode is good or bad depends on how you take Lwaxana Troi. I always love seeing her and I have processed how her character was designed on TNG. In TOS she was essentially window dressing who occasionally would give a needle to a patient. Here we get Majel unchained ---- and come on, she's basically Trek royalty.

I just love Patrick Stewarts performance of intellectually ducking Lwaxanna's advances. His attempt at not appearing uncomfortable while being uncomfortable had me in stitches throughout the scene.

Worf (still the funniest character in trek history) nearly still the show with his adoration of the fish race.

I always get a kick out of these low stakes episodes. TNG started the trek trend of having a bit of fun with the show and it lands well for me.
