Peak Performance! Wiggle your fingers, everyone, as we dive into a wonderfully procedural wargame episode that probably would've served much better as a finale than the actual season 2 finale did! Will Riker and his crew win against Picard by being huge cheaters? Will Data bust up the suspicious doctor from Total Recall in a game of weird finger chess? And will the Ferengi be horrible stereotypes yet again? The answer to all of these questions is yes, but listen along anyway and see what Ricardo thinks!

Manhunt! Lwaxana Troi is back and hornier than ever! Mix that up with some Admiral Ackbar terrorists, Dixon Hill holodeck shenanigans, some overtly analytical Data anecdotes, a hard-drinking Lurch, and some Howard Hawks-esque screwball antics, and you've got yourself a silly stew goin'! Ricardo's been silly, this week, you guys! Again!

The Icarus Factor! Riker meets up with his estranged father and Wesley arranges a bar mitzvah for Worf! This one resonated a lot with Ricardo because he's also a father and this was a very father-son-driven narrative, but what will his final verdict be?!
