Earl Grey 105: Snakebot: The Great Librarian

"Masks" Rewrite.

The seventh, and last, season of The Next Generation is not often
listed as the best year of the Enterprise-D crew. It features
great, bad, and "meh" episodes. Darren, Daniel, and Phillip take
one of those "meh" efforts - "Masks," an episode that is
considered an "okay" episode and rewrite it. They decide what
elements worked, like Captain Jean-Luc Picard "geeking out" over
archaeology and the overall mystery of the alien probe, and seek
out what elements didn't work, e.g., Brent Spiner playing every
single character and then some, as well as the "on the cheap"
effects. 

The trio also incorporates new elements, characters, and story
twists, using original ideas, as well as aspects from other TNG
stories, including the other Star Trek. Their new "spec script"
includes a memorable guest star that may remain a fan favorite
for a long time. So join the other children in the clay room,
forget all about the sun and moon, and join Earl Grey are they
re-write the Next Gen episode "Masks."
