First up to the plate, we have the "Great Qualifications" Award, going to JirinPanthosa for:

TNGCaption330a.jpg


PICARD: You realize I only picked you because you suck less than Duras, right? Just want to be clear on this. You won by smelling slightly better than poop.

TNGCaption330b.jpg



Guinan: I've seen Klingons laugh.

Worf: You've seen me laugh. Back at the start of Yesterday's Enterprise?

Next, we have the "Advanced Technology" Award, going to Honorable Ensign for:

TNGCaption330c.jpg

Beverly: I'm not an idiot, Wesley. I know you're paying them to be your friends. But, what you don't know is that I've already paid them to be friends with you. Friggin greedy kids!

TNGCaption330c.jpg

Clip Taken From the UFP History series: "Unknown Career Choices of Famous StarFleet Captains"

Announcer: "Some think Fedration Captain Jean-Luc Picard's only other career pursuit was Archaeology. Not true. While teaching at StarFleet Academy, in his off time he took a part time job as a Human Coat Rack at a posh Klingon themed restaurant in the 'Fisherman's Wharf' district of San Francisco."

And Huskers57 for:

TNGCaption331a.jpg


Riker thinking - "Did I leave the iron on?"



Many thanks to everyone who participated and congrats to our winners!

Now back to our journey through the seasons of TNG, we reach Season 5. The Poll had a tie for second place again, "Darmok" and "The Inner Light." Those both being two episodes of the highest quality, I decided to do both of them, along with the 1st place winner, "Conundrum."

This week, "Darmok."
 
TNGCaption332a.jpg


Picard: I know this is supposed to be some sort of a bonding adventure, but we SERIOUSLY COULDN'T BRING ANY MORE ADVANCED WEAPONS?!

TNGCaption332b.jpg


Riker: You moved a Phaser array into the Torpedo bay?!

TNGCaption332c.jpg


Picard: (reading) "Where's Dathon?"

TNGCaption332d.jpg


Picard: So, that's what actually happened to Jack Crusher. Please don't tell Beverly.

TNGCaption332e.jpg


Picard: You left this on my chair again, Number One.
 
TFTW!

TNGCaption332a.jpg


Darmok: That's not a knife. This is a knife!

TNGCaption332b.jpg


Worf: Is the android still eavesdropping?

TNGCaption332c.jpg


Picard: These pieces of paper with highly important information on them would be great to start a fire with!

TNGCaption332d.jpg


Picard: How about Row, Row, Row your boat?

TNGCaption332e.jpg


Picard: And just like that, with ancient Tamarian sewing techniques, you too could create a snazy jacket like mine.
 
TNGCaption332a.jpg


Picard: 'So, this is your standard protocol for first contact, right? Same as always, nothing out of the ordinary, right?... Oh yeah, you don't understand, I'd have to speak in metaphores. Eurrrmmm .... "Data, his lips rarely closed, prattling on incessantly about some definition at the helm. Worf, his eyes brooding, standing angrily at the tactical console!" '

TNGCaption332b.jpg


Worf: Sirs, in a situation like this, when the Children of Tama could strike at any moment, a Klingon warrior like myself would prefer to be ready and waiting at his battle station instead of having to play arbiter in such a silly conflict.
Riker and Data: we insist.
Worf: <sigh> Well, as it would NOT be honourable to lie about this.... Data's bottom IS smoother than your chin, sir!



TNGCaption332c.jpg


Picard: Hmmmm... perhaps turning rocks into a replicator is somewhat harder than I thought ....
 
Thanks for the log win..
TNGCaption332a.jpg


Captain's Log: this was one of these days where I wish the legendary Hoshi Sato was here. Too bad she died in that incident when the NX-01 was enroute to Earth for the Signing of the Federation Charter.

TNGCaption332b.jpg


Riker: What?

Worf: Any idea who programmed Klingon clowns into my calisthenics holoprogram?

Riker: No idea

TNGCaption332c.jpg


Picard: Is this Kree?

TNGCaption332d.jpg


Picard: Over there, Hawkeye's tent once stood. What I would give for a swig from his still.

TNGCaption332e.jpg


Riker: You make a good point.
 
TNGCaption332e.jpg

PICARD: "Is this a dagger which I see before me?"
RIKER: I think its a knife.
PICARD: What the hell do they teach you in Alaska?
 
TNGCaption332a.jpg

DATHON: Ness and Malone, untouchable. Their guns brought.
PICARD: Rogers, the reference understood.
 
TNGCaption332e.jpg

PICARD: "Pointy!"
RIKER: "Yes...yes Captain, it's 'pointy'."
PICARD: "Gift shop?"
RIKER: "Ok...we open gift shop. Tomorrow"
PICARD: "NOW! Gift shop NOW!"
 
TNGCaption332e.jpg

Picard: Darmok's iKnife has a very eclectic selection of songs on it.

[Sir Mix-a-Lot's "Baby Got Back" ends then Aqua's "Barbie Girl" starts playing]


TNGCaption332d.jpg

[Picard grunting and wet sputtering farting]


TNGCaption332b.jpg

Worf: Word.
 
TNGCaption332a.jpg

Dathon: The Beast at Tanagara!
Picard: Bo and Luke in the General Lee?
Dathon: Sokath! His eyes uncovered!
Picard: Daisy Duke, you know what I'm saying?
Dathon: Daisy Duke, her breeches shortened!

TNGCaption332b.jpg

Data: Dear Commander Maddox: I have decided to grow a beard so that I may join this secret fraternity of mutual admiration....

TNGCaption332c.jpg

Picard: Spock/Horta?? <turns page>

TNGCaption332d.jpg

Picard: Beans and bourbon, their combination explosive.
Dathon: Kiazi's children, their faces wet!

TNGCaption332e.jpg

Picard:
Alas, poor Dathon, I knew him, Riker.
Riker: Ohh?
Picard: - A fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! My gorge rims....
Riker:
Awww....
 
TNGCaption332e.jpg

PICARD: So then I climbed inside and was saved from the ravages of sub-zero temperatures...
RIKER: That seems wrong. It doesn't get that cold on that planet.
PICARD: Who's telling this story?
 
TNGCaption332a.jpg


PICARD: Ben Linus on the Island, his plan overly convoluted!

TNGCaption332b.jpg


WORF: You need to make a decision. Which one of us is your first officer? You pick a different one every time.
RIKER: Yeah, and you both suck every time. If the Captain isn't back by tomorrow I'm calling Shelby.

TNGCaption332c.jpg


PICARD: So if I ever need to enhance my communicator, I have to...I have to...man, my handwriting sucks so much.

TNGCaption332d.jpg


OTHER CAPTAIN: Heath Ledger...and Jake Gyllenhal...
PICARD: For the last time, I just don't like you that way.

TNGCaption332e.jpg


PICARD: This dagger is actually really nifty. I think I'll mount it on the wall somewhere.
