timepiececlockWhat's the body count for Start Trek: The Next Generation ?
I don't need a total number, just some specific answers here and there. Like, "they blew up such and such ship here" or "they shot aliens here while rescueing so and so" or "they killed this alien here that one time."
My dad, you see, was trying to convince us that Picard never killed anyone besides the Borg. Which is so not true, as my mother and I have been trying to prove. But I saw most of STNG when I was between 5 and 14, so I'm not good on giving names of actual races/people killed. And yeah, a lot of the time Picard just talks his way out it. But I know they've killed people and blown up ships in fights and stuff.
So far all we can think of are the ugly bug species that took over the crew's bodies and were crawling out of Lt. Barcli's skin and stuff, and the blue glowy aliens that were trying to kill Mark Twain. But I know there were more than that. Heck, whenever they beamed anywhere they had their phazers out and frequently had to escape from places.
So... geeks of LJ unite! We must gather our collective trivia and prove to my father that Picard/The Enterprise Crew did kill more people/aliens/races/entities than just "what you can count on one hand." Whoever's death they were responsible for (self defense counts!), tell me.
This is the kind of debate that I have to win. I have to maintain my undefeated position as the go-to girl for inane movie/music/scifi/actor/showbiz trivia. Help me, help me!

Date: 2004-01-24 01:48 am (UTC)Not sure it counts, but he killed me with boredom. I mean he behaves just like you'd expect a captian in real life to behave; all balaneced and responsible (though those captins are no good when wars startare they?).
As Captian he is reposnible for his entire crew so if any of them kill anyone (And I am sure worf did...fairly often) then they have to count right?
Oh. This won't count, but he killed Captian Sisko's wife...true he was aborg then, but hey.
