** What makes it even funnier is that Riker was actually enjoying the music before Troi faceplants into the table.

** What makes it even funnier is that Riker was actually enjoying the music and starting to shimmy to it before Troi faceplants into the table.



* When Cochrane says that his life's ambition is to make enough money to retire to a tropical island full of naked women, Riker visibly smirks. He can at least appreciate ''that'' part.



** And speaking of everyone's favorite half-Vulcan, he once says "My father's people were spared the dubious benefits of alcohol." [[Series/StarTrekEnterprise Ambassador Soval]] puts it more bluntly: "Vulcan's don't drink." Apparently, being near humans just has this effect on Vulcans.

* Picard, Lily in tow, finally reunites with the others, including Worf. Lily's been traumatized enough by everything that's happened to her, and seeing a RubberForeheadAlien is yet another shock -- and Worf's reaction is so matter-of-fact Worf.

** Bonus points because as mentioned over on the Heartwarming page, the Vulcans are going through the equivalent of finding a culture who greets people by open-mouth kissing them and taking it in stride. Makes you wonder if Kirk's habit of BoldlyComing is just a human thing...
