Episode Summary & Review
Summary
After a computer malfunction,Worf, his son Alexander Rozhenko, and Counselor Deanna Troi are trapped in an Old West holodeck program wherein the interactive characters physically resemble and have the same enhanced abilities as Data.
Our Take
A goofy holodeck romp that knows exactly what it is. Brent Spiner clearly has a blast playing half a dozen Western villains, and the campy fun mostly carries the hour, though the framing plot with the ship’s systems going haywire feels thin and repetitive. Worth watching for the performances alone, just don’t expect anything deeper than a good time.
