TNG S2 EP 21: "Peak Performance"

"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness, that is life." "Do you want to play a game?"...Is what Starfleet asked Picard. To which he said, "I would rather not, but I guess we need to be ready to fight the Borg so, sure." In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, Peak Performance, Riker and a ragtag crew in a derelict ship, face off against the might of Picard and the Enterprise. Will Word and Riker's guile, and Acting Ensign Crusher's open cheating, be enough to win? Or will it all go wonky when a Ferengi captain thinks he smells a profit? Oh, also, they play this weird game with the stuffy strategist observer where the competitors have these weird finger-milking gloves on while they play Connect 12 or whatever. Pretty gross!
