Storyline

Second officer Lt. Commander Data accepted to speak a complete record of a day in his functioning for the benefit of scientific android engineer Commander Maddox and concludes his programming must be improved concerning interaction with human emotions, most puzzling given human practices such as irony. Chief Miles O'Brien's human wedding is amply confusing, even for Worf, bride Keiko Ishikawa's gibbers even more illogical. Learning dances and which is appropriate from Dr. Crusher prove easy. Conan Doyle's logic of elimination Data soon masters, in time to solve a mysterious accident during negotiations with a Romulan admiral... Written by KGF Vissers

Many TNG firsts.
22 April 2006 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

ST:TNG:85 - "Data's Day" (Stardate: 44390.1) - this is the 11th episode of the 4th season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Though this series is well into its journey (already in its 4th season), there are still a few new things the show can introduce us to. This includes Keiko Ishikawa (the future Mrs. O'Brien of TNG and DS9, played by Rosalind Chao), the arboretum (where Keiko is a botanist), the day and night watches of the Enterprise, the hair salon (including Mot the barber), the gift shop (where someone materializes a bunny doll), Beverly Crusher as the "Dancing Doctor" teaching Data to dance, Data's cat Spot, and the first wedding (which is also the first human wedding Worf has attended).

Also, Data notes that he has contemplated marriage, he recounts being introduced to Sherlock Holmes by Picard, as well as writing Bruce Maddox (from "The Measure Of A Man") a letter about his latest "human" experiences.

All in all, many firsts.
