That may be so but in those examples there is 1 major factor that contributed to how Data acted. When he ordered to fire Data was acting Captain and in command of the ship along with a crewmate that was not following hes orders. On the Enterprise Data is 3rd in rank after Picard and Riker so Data can always order Worf to do things if necessary. However in the 3rd example "Captain, drop the shields" Data was not in command and even though he hade the solution he cant order Captain Picard to do it so he gave the Captain an option of what to do instead.

I love how when Data says either Picard or the Ambassador is carrying an E-band transmitter and should agree to be searched, Picard turns and looks right at the ambassador as if to say, “I know I ain’t got it!”

He probably wasn't Klingon. Since the plot was Romulan, it's possible that he was a Romulan who had undergone surgical alterations to appear Klingon, probably killing a Klingon to take his position. Although the Romulans sometimes have alliances with specific Klingon houses (eg Duras), it's almost always houses that are in such disgrace that they can't get allies anywhere in the Klingon Empire or much of anywhere else. It would be nearly impossible for such a Klingon to become a representative of the High Council because no one with standing would want to suggest it for fear of bringing dishonor upon their own house through alliance or association with dishonored or banished Klingons. Romulans, on the other hand, aren't particularly picky who they ally themselves with as long as it benefits the Romulans more than it costs them.

To be honest, I feel that the Klingon governor’s behavior made it very clear he respected Picard from the first moment they met. He has no doubt heard about Picard’s actions as the arbiter of succession. Early in the episode he tests Picard by insulting him. Picard responds by insulting him back, in Klingon no less. That is the ‘proper’ way for a Klingon to act, and the governor even says so - ‘You swear well, Picard’. It also would’ve made absolutely no sense for Picard to stop Geordi at the last second if Picard wanted him dead. So its very understandable why the governor is so willing to accept Picard and Data’s story.

+Adiraiju Interesting story about Michael Dorn. About twenty years agoI took my son, who was then 12, to a Star Trek Convention in Sacramento. We anxiously awaited the arrival of Dorn and he was late. Finally a rather large African American guy in a flight suit stepped onto the stage. It was Dorn. No one recognized him at first because he didn't have his makeup on, but gradually the audience realized who it was and started clapping. He apologized for being late and said he had a flight suit on because he had piloted a Casa Jet (Spanish jet trainer) to the local airport and there was a delay. Very nice guy. A good looking buxom woman in full Clingon getup with mega cleavage went to the front and stood below him on the raised stage and posed. He said in his Worf voice, "Very Impressive." His speaking voice was normal, but he went in and out of his deep Worf voice at will.

I've installed the Symbola font in Windows xp to see most of them, but they're really small, because they're sized the same as the rest of text. I've discovered in Android 2.3, that with the exception of an updated version of Google Hangouts, there is no support for in-system emojis, and font support for emojis and many other symbols is insufficient, including in the KZread app (v5.5.30). The latter can inadvertently create confusion, when Android 2.3 users can't see a symbol. Sites like Twitter use a custom framework to display emojis both in-site and in its apps, because a large amount of computers and devices simply don't support emojis.

As usual, Troi senses nothing that could have prevented the assassination attempt. Because she is a useless character (nothing against Marina Sirtis).

Picard's answer was a diplomatically perfect way to get to the bottom of the event without infringing upon Klingon rights and their sense of honor. Perfectly played.

This is one of my favourite Data moments. He’s not trying to be human. He’s an Android, and he’s going to follow the rules. He’s a little concerned in his own way for Geordi, but his priority is to prevent what is about to happen. This is the most robotic we see Data in the entire series, and I love it. This is how Data is under pressure.

That reaction Picard had was sublime. Shows how good of an actor Patrick Stewart is.

Data always saves the day. If you want to make good decisions, the more data you have, the better.

"I am forced to agree, Captain. We will take the Ambassador with us, and search him ourselves." I think it is safe to say Ambassador Kell did not make it to Sto'vo'kor that day (just the opposite in fact).

The score and Brent's amazing acting skills as this scene plays out is incredible. By far one of the best scenes in the entire show.

DATA was the " electronic" Spock of the next generation. He became a legend in itself.

Currently binge watching all seasons and just watched this one. The tension building as Data assembles his facts, comes to his conclusion and utters the cold, calculated order to save the day was again nothing short of amazing. Thank you TNG!

This episode is definitely one of the best. The ending pushed new boundaries back in the early 90s where it didn't end with everything cleanly. Geordi was struggling with the trauma of battling the hypnosis. Granted, this never came up again, and today, this kind of ending is trite, but it was new to have this kind of an ending for a show in the 90s and it paved the way for television shows after. TNG pushed new boundaries of television.

"That is an order" love it! He says it so confidently when he says it too. Just awesome.

That Klingon was never heard from ever again.

Data has saved the day in many more episodes

Presumably that phaser was set to maixmum power. Given that La Forge's hand was knocked away so he shot into the roof and walls, the rest of this conversation should have taken place in space.
