Mike McMahan delivers us another signature TNG trope with "Upper Decks." Wrapped in an anthology episode, five vignettes follow the lives of select bridge crew members - Captain Freeman, Commander Ransom, Lieutenant Shax, Lieutenant Commander Billups, and Dr. T’Ana - through their day aboard the Cerritos. This quintet of tales incorporates even more tropes (an alien invasion, space cows, performance of a one-man show, a devolved crew member, witnessing a birthing ceremony, engineering disasters, Bajoran trauma, etc.)
