A mystery waiting to be solved . . .

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

ST:TNG:88 - "Clues" (Stardate: 44502.7) - this is the 14th episode of the 4th season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

In this very smart episode, the Enterprise is en route to investigate a mysterious planet when it passes through a supposed worm hole in space which knocks everyone out except for Data. When the crew is revived, Data says only 30 seconds had passed but as the ship progresses back en route to its destination, there are "clues" which say otherwise.

What really happened? Find out by watching this intriguing episode.

Trivia note: we see Riker, Troi, Geordi and Worf in a martial arts class for the first time. Also, Picard (with Guinan this time) recreate another Dixon Hill mystery at the beginning of the episode. Nurse Ogawa also makes another appearance here.
