Summary

Lt. Jae speaks! This week, John and Ken continue their look back at Star Trek: The Next Generation and welcome special guests: "True Q" story writer Matthew Corey and Lt. Jae herself, Tracee Lee Cocco. Plus, we'll count down our top five essential TNG episodes... which means we'll probably name 20 or more episodes by the time we're done. It's all on this week's Mission Log!
