History YMMV / StarTrekTheNextGenerationS6E16StarshipMine

** This episode is pretty much [[DieHardOnAnX Die Hard on the Enterprise]], and many years later, Tim Russ had a minor part in Film/LiveFreeOrDieHard

* HilariousInHindsight: Captain Picard disables a terrorist using a Vulcan Neck Pinch. The guy who gets pinched? He's played by Tim Russ, who would later star in ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' as Vulcan Security Chief Tuvok.

** In this DieHardOnAnX, Creator/PatrickStewart’s character is in the John McClane role. [[Film/Masterminds1997 Four years later]], he’d play the Hans Grubber role.

* PlotHole: Again, that same sickness we get from the Berman-Braga Period: Never gets to explain who those, "Thieving Terrorists" are and no backstory as to their motives on why they decided to take the Enterprise crew hostage just to steal Trilithium. Even the host Starfleet Cmdr. Hutchinson was never heard of again. Time constraints as usual.

* PlotHole: If we are going by the idea that Trilithium Resin is a byproduct of warp cores, shouldn't all warp cores (or at least all Federation warp cores, including civilian ones) have the substance readily available (including on the escape ship) for use as an explosive? So shouldn't have the terrorists just collected it from their own engines?
