/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Good 'ole Spot!
What a star. Probably should have some kind of poetry focused on them or something.
I like The Loss (S04E10) where Troi loses her mental abilities and has a crisis about actually having to know how to do her job. Bonus is that early in the episode even with her powers, she was dishing out surface level platitudes to a patient who was clearly unimpressed.
Top therapist in Starfleet. Got her position on the flagship entirely on merit she did.

How long has it been since you've watched that episode? What you're describing doesn't match what I remember about the patient behavior.
The first scene Troi had saved one of the patient's dead husband's keepsakes that the patient was overjoyed to receive back as a reminder of her lost loved one. The scene where patient was unimpressed, the second scene with that patient and was after she'd lost her powers. Troi was claiming the patient was in denial and not addressing the issue and the patient dismissed Troi's analysis. The final scene with the patient was when Troi still didn't have her powers back, and the patient admitted that (powerless) Troi had correctly read the situation and that the patient was now thankful that Troi gave the advice about denial. Only after this did Troi get her powers back.
Full synopsis of that episode here if you want to look at it.
