I really enjoyed the whole beginning and overall theme of this particular episode... going from a failed La Forge date to the bar scene was great. I also really enjoyed the ship in the bottle jokes later on with Picard, Riker, Worf, Data & O'Brien all in the transporter room.
All the episodes that connect with the history or future in some way I feel really add to the overall Star Trek universe. As someone that has seen mostly Deep Space Nine, Voyager, & Discovery prior to seeing The Next Generation it's great to see all the connections that each series has tried to make to The Next Generation. Overall I am really enjoying the 3rd season and this is another episode on the favorite list.
