Great Moments: Picard / Tasha Yar

Star Treks

Fleet Captain

Tenth in a series of threads exploring your favorite episodes, scenes, moments, or lines between two main TNG characters. The argument is that every single main-character pairing has at least one classic or at least very good moment somewhere in TNG.

Yar and Wesley present problems, because they weren't on the show as long as the other mains - especially Yar. So let's start with an easier one: can you think of any moments you liked between Tasha and Captain Picard?

Wow, this one is tough. I can only think of one: the 'tears are allowed on the bridge' scene in Hide and Q.

From many... One.
 
Unfortunately there aren't many moments between Tasha and anyone! She was not on the show long enough. I do like the penalty box scene in "Hide & Q." As well as her holographic message to Picard in "Skin of Evil." Then there's the scene in "Yesterday's Enterprise" where she asked to go back with the Enterprise C. And finally their scene in the shuttle in "All Good Things" That's about all I can think of.
 
I would also second the scene in Yesterday's Enterprise. Just liked the dynamic for some reason in that one.

But Yar wasn't on the show as long so there won't be quite as long of a list.
 
Well there was that great moment that got her the job as Chief of Security ~ no no let's not go there

Umm how about the shuttle scene in AGT? It's brief but is one of the scenes from AGT that sticks in my mind.

I would also count Tasha's farewell speech to Picard.
 
This is a tough one. I'd have to second Picard and Yar's conversation in Yesterday's Enterprise when she asks to transfer to the E-C. Also, I kind of like the "penalty box" scene in Hide & Q when she says to him, "Oh, if you weren't a captain," something they never touched on again -- the potential of sexual tension between the two, but more on Tasha's side than on Picard's. -- RR

But Tasha considered him a father figure! That's kind of odd...whatever gets her off I guess.
