Episode description

One thing we can’t get enough of is kids in space! If that’s something you enjoy as well, then join us for “Hero Worship” . . . 

Remember the last episode where we got to watch Worf play awkward father to his son, Alexander? Now watch Data play awkward surrogate-father to some kid named Timothy! Seems young Timothy is the sole survivor of a science vessel investigating a “black cluster,” whatever the fuck that is. All we know is everyone on board is dead except Timothy, and the fresh-faced tween is seriously traumatized. So much so that he retreats from his feelings by deciding he’s now an emotionless android just like Data! How is the crew of the Enterprise supposed to figure out what happened to Timothy’s parents if he won’t talk about it? By ordering Data to get the kid to lean into it in hopes that he’ll start sharing. This brilliant idea is courtesy of renowned child expert Captain Jean-Luc Picard, former child hater-turned-Mr. Rodgers-in-space. He even has a sweater to change into! Will the crew discover the mystery of what destroyed the science vessel? Will Data get a new job grooming young boys’ hair? Will anyone ever realize that having children on a spaceship is a really dumb idea? Find out on this exciting, all-new episode of ST:TNGeez!
