    Honestly there is one aspect of this that the show really didnt explore that makes this test much harder for Deanna, shes an empath. Could you imagine not just ordering someone to their death but then having to feel every emotion and thought going through their head at that point.

    I love how he gave her both of the hints she needed without directly saying it. Her first duty is to the ship is the main answer. But there was another hint in his answer that revealed it. As an engineering exam, the fact that the answers aren't in the tech manuals is unspeakable, meaning it was a different test under the mask on engineering.

    I don't think so. The reason I say so is because Star Trek also takes inspiration from great military stories. Just like Roddenberry was inspired by the Horatio Hornblower stories from his youth. Anyone, especially police or military officials will be in a no-win scenario whether they like it or not. The best laid plans would always be to figure out an alternative solution. Yet like Riker says you can keep trying to figure out a solution, but if you're still not getting anywhere, and if in the end you can't make that ONE big decision which will have personal consequences, like sacrificing someone's life to save others, then you really can't own up to the rank of command.

    Just what I thought myself. The interesting point is Kirk never ordered him to - Spock decided himself that this was what needed to be done and he did it. He practically took the burden of making that decision off Kirk's hands . He still went to his death and Kirk had to deal with that, but at least Kirk did not have to deal with having given the order that sent his friend to his death. Coming to think of it, it also strongly reminds me of the scenario in the movie K-19, where the sailors of a Russian nuclear submarine have to enter a reactor chamber to get a runaway reactor back under control. This was actually based on a real situation that happened in an actual submarine, and I wonder whether the scenario in TWOK wasn't inspired by this.

    That's one of the many hard parts about leadership in any dangerous profession. Weighing who can achieve the result, who among those candidates will be most likely to be successful, and evaluating who can be afforded to be lost. If Geordi fails, or if there is a new problem, you have to have other plans in progress to deal with the new situation- the test shouldn't simply be to give the order, but to be able to continue to respond adequately while feeling the weight of what you've just done.

    Not necessarily. He only reminded her of what a bridge officer’s duty was: that the ship’s safety was a primary concern. As Troi stated before, she may not know everything technically about the ship, but it takes a certain level of officer to order someone to their potential death. Yes, that’s usually a voluntary duty to whoever is carrying it out, but someone needs to actually give that order, even if it means sacrificing one for everyone else. We have seen it so many times when a captain or a first officer orders a deck sealed off or people to hold position. It comes with the awesome responsibility of making sure there’s so many others live because of it.

A normal person could not sleep at night knowing they`d sent an innocent life to their death, only psychopaths can do so. That`s why many people in the elite are psychopaths as they don`t care about killing millions of people - many are in the military as well. I think the military don`t care about its soldiers thats why they`re treated like cannon fodder. There is no honour in that. And the soldiers that do return and have had to make such decisions and actually kill people come back screwed up in the head.

The question (or challenge) is to assemble an All-Female Crew to go up against and all male crew. You can only use TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY and I suppose ENT. I have a very hard time with deciding who's the First Officer. You said Crusher and I have to agree that that's a safe bet, but I like to play around with Seven as the First Officer and Trio as a buffer between she and Janeway. I like to imagine the ship as a lot more aggressive, squared away, etc. (I was in the Navy by the way) But going with your Crusher as FO, my safe bet is Seven at Security and especially tactical on the bridge. With help from Yar at security, I think she would still have time to contribute greatly at Science and of course Engineering. So next is Con? See, I absolutely couldn't stand DS9, so I'm clueless as to where Kira and Dax would go? The Con, maybe? So far I have two Bajorans, Ensign Roe and, get this, Sito, Jaxa from the TNG episode, "Lower Decks" and "The First Duty". She was a stud, very underrated. She was a star pilot in school and sacrificed her life for the sake of Bajorans. I guess me biggest question is where does Kira and Dax go? Should Roe be somewhere else? I do like her as a pilot, but maybe Dax or Kira would be better. I need Ops, too! What about Kira at Ops and Dax at Science or wherever? Dax and Kira are where I'm clueless. Roe at Ops? Remember, Paris is an absolute stud piolet so getting this placement right is crucial. Well is Crusher is a command officer like you said, Dr. Pulaski is more than capable at Medical. It's interesting as hell to see what Kes could/would contribute other than Medical. Well, here's mine. It's the more aggressive one though I like Crusher as FO. Captain: Janeway (Duh) First Officer: Seven Counselor: Trio (she would be the absolute key to Seven and Janeway getting along and becoming a fantastic team greater than the sum of it's parts.) OPS: Dax (please help if there's a better fit) Security: Yar and Kira Tactical: Seven (on bridge) Con: Roe and Sito, Jaxa Medical: Crusher and Pulaski both

    Not necessarily. Will just reminded Deanna of his duty. Of every bridge officer’s duty. To the safety of the ship that they’re commanding, and all the souls on it. We’ve seen it right Star Trek history with other scenarios. On Voyager with the Maquis simulation on the holodeck and DS9 with Red Squad in command of the Valiant. In both cases, the commanding officers in charge of those ships were more interested in either going out in a blaze of glory or accomplishing a mission, no matter the cost. In both cases, whether it was simulation or real life combat, it cost and the lives of their crews. In both those scenarios, retreat was the viable tactical option. Although that ideal option is different from what happened here, the philosophy is the same. Your first duty when you’re in command is to make sure that as many of your people stay alive. Sometimes that means a retreat, and in this case, that means ordering someone to their death to save over 1000 souls.
