There's probably a review to be written arguing how offensive this story is if you actually took its situation seriously.An overheated, hysterical and, yes, quite awful performance - but brave. Gates McFadden turns in a brave performance while drowning in oceans of dreck.Hey, look! Graverobbing! And the animated corpse of Beverly's grandmother speaks!.Picard walks in on Beverly while she's very close to having an orgasm.Quint is killed in the later acts by Ronin's sci-fi (or, if you will, ghostly) abilities, a victim of Screenwriting 101.Beverly resigns her Starfleet commission to go live on the planet full-time with Ronin, because erotic supernatural adventures just SCRAMBLE WOMEN'S MINDS.Note to self for pitching the next spinoff series: Sex and the Saucer Section! Double LOL! Beverly's 10-Forward discussion with Troi about her supernatural paramour has a tone that pretty much translates to: OMG, HE GETS ME SO HOTT, LOL.Green lightning! Thunder! Wind! Faces in mirrors that aren't there when you turn around! Beverly getting possessed! No clichГ© goes unused as the writers and producers channel haunted house ideas that had clearly been simmering for years.Then again, Quint is so urgent a Scotsman as to make James Doohan's Scotty seem restrained by comparison. Helpful Quint dialogue: 'Dahnaht laaght thaht caandle, and dahnaht goo to thaht hoose!' Beverly of course ignores these warnings. Beverly is warned early on by Ned Quint (Shay Duffin) that there's a ghost that brought her grandmother nothing but misery and bad luck, especially if she lit that dreaded candle.(Note: I said 'almost.' I'm afraid it actually wasn't.) It appears to have been conceived as some sort of homage to 19th-century period romances crossed with haunted house stories. Make no mistake - this is a terrible, terrible hour of so-called 'science fiction' - but it's also a cheese-fest so absurd you almost wonder if it was meant in jest. I can't bring myself to hate 'Sub Rosa' simply because it's way too goofy to be worthy of hatred. The old adage 'so bad it's good' was coined for just this sort of affair.

Truth be told, I enjoyed watching 'Sub Rosa' (granted, for all the wrong reasons) a lot more than I enjoyed watching ' Homeward,' but that's because I like to laugh at overcooked and overacted camp. After season seven's endless parade of Family Tree Theater, this episode takes the cake - then blows it up with dynamite birthday candles.ДЄh, 'Sub Rosa.' This may be TNG's equivalent to ' Spock's Brain' - an episode so insanely, deliriously, hilariously, notoriously, transcendently bad that it manages to elevate awfulness to a sort of epic grandeur. A ghost named Ronin (Duncan Regehr) who, we ultimately learn, has been seducing the minds and cohabiting the bodies of the women in Beverly's family for generations. (It's an 'anaphasic lifeform,' blah, blah, blah.) But for all intents and purposes, yes, a ghost. Okay, not really a ghost, because this is Star Trek.

Mr.Star Trek: The Next Generation 'Sub Rosa'Д«everly attends her maternal grandmother's funeral on a colony modeled after Scotland, where she finds herself drawn uncontrollably into a bizarre and unexpected tryst with.

In TV episodes they talk about converting cargo bays to wards in time of need, so at least they have backup plans. Still for a crew of 1,012 I wouldnвЂ™t want to be caught in an outbreak of lungworms. Special quarentine wards for space diseases, and a hospital ward.

The Next Gen Enterprise sickbay is huge, with the ward and office we see on TV taking up only the bottom left. Tiny for a crew of 500, a space plague or something and crewmembers will be left dying in the corridors.

The classic movie Enterprise sickbay section is literally what we saw in movies I and II.

Not bad at all, but if a crew of 430 get sick all at once, theyвЂ™d be overwhelmed. The TOS Enterprise sickbay complex is way bigger than what we saw on TV, which consisted if J, H, D and F on the floorplan above.

Enterprise sickbay would you rather visit?
