However, everything is soon revealed to be exactly as it seems. 4.The crew of the Enterprise discover a totally new lifeform, which later turns out to be a rather well-known old lifeform wearing a silly hat. 5.The crew of the Enterprise are struck by a strange alien plague for which the cure is found in the well-stocked sick-bay. 6.An enigmatic being composed of pure energy attempts to interface to the Enterprise's computer only to find out that it has forgotten to bring the right leads. 7.A power surge on the Bridge is rapidly and correctly diagnosed as a faulty capacitor by the highly-trained and competent engineering staff. 8.The Enterprise ferries an alien VIP from one place to another without serious incident. 9.The Enterprise is captured by a vastly superior alien intelligence which does not put them on trial. 10.The Enterprise is captured by a vastly inferior alien intelligence which they easily pacify by offering it some sweeties. 11.The Enterprise is involved in a bizarre time-warp phenomenon which is in some way unconnected with the 20th century. 12.Somebody takes out a shuttle and it doesn't explode or crash. 13.A major Starfleet emergency breaks out near the Enterprise, but fortunately some other ships in the area are able to deal with it to everyone's satisfaction. 14.The shields on the Enterprise stay up during a battle. 15.The Enterprise visits the Klingon home world on a bright, sunny, day 16.An attempt at undermining the Klingon-Federation alliance is discovered without anyone noting that such an attempt, if successful, "would represent a fundamental shift of power throughout the quadrant." 17.A major character spends the entire episode in the Holodeck without a single malfunction trapping him/her there. 18.Picard walks up to the replicator and says, "Coke on ice." 19.Counsellor Troi states something other than the blindingly obvious. 20.Worf actually gives another vessel more than 2 seconds to respond to one of the Enterprise's hails.
