Not only is this the season 6 finale, but it's also the episode where we officially put Data on trial (sort of). Spoiler alert: he loses (sort of). Also WE go on trial. We brave the listeners' complaints about us. It's chilling stuff. Hey, plus we have a couple of apparently pretty good episodes to talk about. One question we didn't get to: Can the Romulans ever invent anything that doesn't utterly destroy space-time?
