Pitch terrible ideas for episodes

Yeah, I cast him for his ugly looks as much as for his nasty personality.I'm not into guys so it's a non-factor for me. Besides, naked Brunt would be more than enough to drive most people off.
But 2 hot babes are too much for a terrible episode. Let's remove T'Pol and keep the Barbie doll. Which brings the number of players back to 6. How many players are there supposed to be around a World Poker Tour table?
How about an episode that is just a Betazed wedding?
A...time-travel episode so we can throw everyone from T'Pol, Seven, Jadzia, etc. together and have them all...together.

That stuff was in the "ideal episode" thread. The point of strip poker here was that only the ugly people lose their shirts.
I'd like to see some of these stories in fanfic form. They'd be a hoot! 
"The Phillsopher King" (TNG)
After a recent trip through a strange band of space Picard realizes that the crew is acting differently than usual. His fears escalate and he decides he needs to do a reverse-mutiny...Instead of the officers overthrowing their crazy commander, their crazy commander overthrows the entire crew and takes control of the ship! But they're all okay at the end.
"The Godfather" (DS9)
Nagus sends Quark on a mission to infiltrate the gangs of Ferenginar. It's said the most nefarious leader has gotten his hands on part of The First Latinum...and naturally, that belongs in the Grand Nagus' palace. Quark is terrified. He asks Odo to go with him because he thinks that if Odo can outsmart Quark at his own game, he ought to be able to play the game, too. So Odo morphs into a Ferengi form and Quark and Odo make their way through ill-concieved and awkward gangster movie cliches. In the end Brunt gets the First Latinum somehow.

Actually terrible. Good job. Although there's been worse before, but I won't list it.

"Ask Not What You Can Do For The Federation..." (TOS)
The Enterprise goes back in time and stops the assassination of JFK. Upon returning to the future, they discover the time-line hideously gone wrong. Realizing that they have to set things right, they return to the past to undo things by having Spock shoot Kennedy from the grassy knoll.
Wait, that sounds familiar...
They do this because they realize that Kennedy was a warmongering dick who was the one that got America into Vietnam, and was the one who brought the world to the brink of war with his sabre-rattling and his 'missile gap' bullshit, and that contrary to what they believed about him in the 23rd century, he was not a peaceful man (read the book Legacy Of Ashes: The History Of The CIA by Tim Weiner to learn more).
