Tell me about it. Relics pissed me off. I did lots of flailing and
that. "You dipshits! Do you have any idea how pathetic you are
compared to him?! Jesus, he just did his damn job, he didn't need to
spout of fifty miles of technobabble. Noooo... insteady of prattling
on, he just saved the ship and had done with it. And you, LaForge,
when was the last time you kicked the crap out of a bar full of
Klingons?"
Needless to say, I'd rather have one Scotty than any number of anyone
else of the TNG cast. And this is from someone who mostly liked the
show.
