A Head of the Pack (TNG Season 5)
After a heavy night of drinking, O'Brien wakes up in Engineering with his head stuck in a computer terminal. All the crew comes down to Engineering and everyone takes turns in trying to pull him out, but to no avail. While stuck he regales everybody with stories from his past which are shown in flashbacks. We learn all sorts of sordid details from his past, such as the time he worked as a stripper in order to pay for his college education. These flashbacks lead O'Brien to realise that he has a drinking problem.
In the final act O'Brien sobers up and sees something unusual about the circuitry in the panel. He realises that the Romulans rigged the ship to explode with an ionic subspace device, and using a gravimetric hydro-spanner placed in his mouth he manages to defuse the bomb and save the ship. Then Picard takes his turn at pulling O'Brien out of the panel and he manages to succeed.
At the end of the episode the crew goes to Ten Forward to celebrate and people keep buying O'Brien drinks for saving their lives. The final shot of the episode takes place the next morning when O'Brien wakes up with his head once again stuck in the computer panel. O'Brien shouts "Bollocks!"
The End.
