S1: Episode 10: Q Takes Riker on a Romantic Date; Also There's a Secondary Plot That's Uninteresting
Finally! They give the people (meaning me and apparently a ton of fan fic writers) what we want! Q reappears and sets his sights on hunky hard to get Riker, they have a playful back and forth and Dave cannot convince me this isn't just a massive set up in the form of a "humanity test" just so Q and Riker can have a lovely date together.
Also, Starfleet is all uppity about warp travel and stuff, but they do not know what methane is/how to detect it. Once again with the Osha violations, y'all! Oh, and a young girl dies because she's wearing those jelly shoes popular in the early 90's that gave you mad blisters and I guess she got sepsis from her jelly shoe wounds? That's my take.
Featuring: Q costume changes! Elton John? Amara's take on Too Fast Too Furious! Amara being a little too invested in the potential Q and Riker loves story! Jelly Shoes! Overworked medical residents! War games! Crappy pig human costumes! Napoleonic props and costumes! Picard vs doors! Wesley getting bayonetted! Riker being a douchecanoe! And everyone ignoring that Riker is a douchecanoe.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
