Star Trek: The Next Generation - 4x11 - Data's Day

    Framed as Data sending a log of his day to a researcher, we see a few plots unfold from Data's perspective.  Miles O'Brien is getting married, but his wife is getting cold feet.  Data needs to learn to dance in preparation for the wedding.  A Vulcan ambassador is onboard, and is acting strange.
    This is lots of fun, like any Data-heavy episode.  It's giving the fans plenty of what they want - Data being puzzled by human behavior.
    The subplot with the Vulcan ambassador is a little strange.  I felt like it was needlessly complicated, and padded out a little more than it needed to be.
    It's lots of fun to see Data learning to tap dance.  Whenever the camera goes to the overhead view, it's pretty clear that we're seeing a double.
