You forgot to answer the question above. The one that answers correctly, posts the next question. I know you're new at these things, so don't worry about it.

Sorry, amended my post:

Answer: Menage a Troi

Who was the 4th Commanding officer of the Enterprise D?

[Alrik]

Data, in Gambit, no?

Picard-EaF
Riker-BoBW
Jelico-CoC
Data-Gambit

Not certain, so I'll wait before asking a new question.

Hint: There should be another between between Riker and Jelico and also between Jelico and Data.

[Alrik]

You're right. Almost forgot about Beverly in Descent.

You're almost there. Just pick the fourth. You named him already.

EDIT: Just to explain further... I'm counting the full line of succession, including previous commanders who take command back.

[Alrik]

Now I'm a little confused. (prior to your edit) I guess it goes something like this.

Picard-EaF
Riker-BoBW
Picard-Family
Jelico-CoC I
Picard-CoC II
Crusher-Descent I
Picard-Descent II
Riker-Gambit
Data-Gambit
Picard-Phantasms
Riker-AGT II (future)

So with that line of thinking, it should be Jelico.

Correct. Sorry about not being more specific.

[zephramc]

Soooo... what's the next question?

[Alrik]

Not a problem. Its just that now I'm feeling a bit Trek-nerdier than normal today.

Alright. One evening Miles treated Keiko to Potato Casserole, but she mildly objected to the "little black things". What were they?

[zephramc]

Capers? Not sure though.

If correct, what was the name of the shuttlecraft in "Time Squared" that the duplicate Picard was found in.

[Alrik]

Capers is correct. It was from The Wounded.

Picard was found adrift in the El-Baz.

However, I have to run and might not be back this evening, so please go ahead and post another question.

[Tiberius]

What was the name of the one commanding officer of the Enterprise that we never saw?

Where do you draw the line, though? Command doesn't really shift every time the captain leaves the ship and leaves somebody else in charge. (Even if circumstances prevent him returning, like in "Descent" -- I don't think anyone ever argues that Riker became captain in "Darmok" or "Final Mission.")

Was someone other than Picard officially logged as the Enterprise's CO on any occasions other than "Best of Both Worlds" (Riker) and "Chain of Command" (Jellico)?

[Alrik]

The above are different than "you have the bridge". In Descent, Picard gave Beverly command of the ship with orders to return to the conduit if the Borg returned. His logs would have noted that she was indeed given command. In Gambit, Picard was presumed dead and Star Fleet gave Riker field command. After Riker was presumed lost, dialog suggested that the same must have happened for Data.
