"It's a child" TNG S7E2 Liaisons

[@animationfanatic2133]

When I have to go back to teaching after the summer

[@UndeadGhostGirl]

As a pale skinned, blonde haired, blue eyed person growing up in the hispanic end of south texas, I *really* empathize with that kid right now. And I totally get why his mom is allowing it.

[@ripple-effect-mlp]

The kid was totally like, "Mom...this is weird..."

[@TheGreatSeraphim]

Kid is super uncomfortable. Looks like that was a one take deal.

[@Kube_Dog]

In the previous scene, Worf told him he had no honor, so he was still shaken up.

[@Aku9466]

I love the incredulous look on the kid’s face. “Strange new worlds, my ass! This fucker is nuts!”

[@djafrodudent4767]

[@barryf7253]

Mother is like "I'll just observe from a safe distance".

[@ModestNeophyte]

this is one of my favorite scenes from this episode. the ambassador's wonder is endearing.

[@HowIamDriving]

Me, mid 30, without children: This is what parents think of how I behave.

[@user-qjvqfjv]

Given the preceding dessert scene in Ten Forward, this scene would have been 500% more funny if Loquel said, "Why is he made of chocolate?"

[@jimmyzhao2673]

👀

[@Foebane72]

Who?

[@johntarsa3248]

A "child?" is there a cure for that? 😲

[@sameaston9587]

There is, but the treatment takes 18 years to take effect.

[@teleportedbreadfor3days]

Kid’s face is priceless. I wonder if that was improvised

[@bildo1977]

Snake! Is this a child?

[@gustavgnoettgen]

"A "child", huh?" "Yes, Snake. A young human." Cuts to stock footage "Snake, a child is a young human." (we see a small documentary about the wonder of life)

[@PulloffPrime]

"Now stop touching him."

[@mtwhatley3253]

I’m so glad someone deleted the other edit where it jumped to the shining bathroom scene with Jack and the waiter talking about the cook.

[@peterburke3944]

in the real world that kid would be yelling stranger danger and that alien would be on the register by now

[@LaKyMarEntertainment]

Kid: “Who is this guy and why is he touching me?”

[@Klausjp.ontheroadagain]

Fucking YT ads, we need a new CEO

[@OhShiitakeMushrooms]

15 sec ad for a 14 sec video.

[@tdrewman]

AD blockers work miracles

[@Klausjp.ontheroadagain]

@@tdrewman every time you see m e complaining AD blocker Failed

[@tdrewman]

@@Klausjp.ontheroadagain Use brave browser, built in ad blockers, if using chrome, I use AdBlock extension. Works like a champ..

[@YD-uq5fi]

"What is this?" would be considered racist today.

[@discountinformation3723]

Somebody with blue hair and unshaven everything would have said they were being properly gender neutral and asking a valid question that didn't offend the child's choice in choosing what it was.

[@NoNo-or2wj]

parody trumper comments

[@skyserf]

Kim Jong Un would try to eat him. Joe Biden would try to sniff him.

[@Vel_D]

Nah, really wouldn't be. Whats up with ya'll being snowflakes.

[@desu38]

@@discountinformation3723 I mean, like, you're not wrong. It's not that deep, but still. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ edit: Ohh wait, I just realized it's because they called him "it". Flew right over my head lol

[@Kube_Dog]

One of the earliest examples of forced diversity.

[@skyserf]

As if there weren’t already other characters of African descent in a myriad of other positions on the show.

[@Kube_Dog]

@@skyserf There are, and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm talking about forced diversity.

[@skyserf]

@@Kube_Dog This wasn’t forced. It’s a scene with a mother and her son.

[@Kube_Dog]

@@skyserf I see the problem now. You don't understand what the term "forced diversity" means. It's okay. I can tell you don't want to learn, just bicker. I have to move along now.

[@skyserf]

@@Kube_Dog You don’t see the problem as forced diversity wasn’t a thing in 1993 when this episode was shot or initially aired.

[@jackgibsxxx0750]

Is this the ep that had the 3 ambassadors with one crashing on a planet with Picard and shape shifting while Picard had broken ribs (or not)???

[@skyserf]

Yes
