ST:TNGeez!: 5.15 "Power Play"

The Enterprise is scooting around the galaxy when they get a . . . wait for it . . . distress call! The call is only confirmed by the resident empath’s big feelings. Seems a starship went down on the M-Class moon of Mab-Bu IV 172 years ago! But hey, wouldn’t all those people be dead by now? That is unless they had some old-ass Vulcan on board, right? (DId I say, “Went down on Mab-Bu IV”? I did. Yes, I did.) Unfortunately, the crew of the Enterprise D is unable to beam down to the moon’s surface because of electromagnetic whirlwinds or E.M.W.’s, which nobody calls them. So, it’s shuttle time, and the small one at that –’cause of all the E.M.W.’s probably – they play havoc on those big shuttle craft. Riker, Data, and Troi to the rescue, but before they know it, they crash on the Mab-Bu-ian moon. O'Brien beams down, and they all  get their asses zapped! (Say, Riker hasn’t had a good ass-zaping in a long time!) When the away team gets back up top ship-side, it seems they aren’t the away team they were before going away, well, everyone except Riker. Very quickly we learn--thank you, Ensign Ro--that Team Baddie has hijacked Troi, Data, and Miles, and these bastards are ruthlessly snatching hostages and taking over the ship! Will a possessed Miles O'Brien phaser his new born baby? Will Troi show her badass acting chops? Will Data pop Picard’s head like a flipping Pez dispenser?
