*** This review may contain spoilers ***

ST:TNG:167 - "Lower Decks" (Stardate: 47566.7) - this is the 15th episode of the 7th and last season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

This episode focuses on the crewmembers of the "lower decks" of the Enterprise - those who aren't the upper ranks. Specifically, they focus on Nurse Ogawa (played again by Patti Yasutake and who finally gets a promotion to Lieutenant), Sam Lavelle, Sito Jaxa (again played by Shannon Fill from the 5th season episode "The First Duty"), and Taurik. And it turns out that Sam and Sito are up for the same job! An intriguing episode because we get to see how others on the Enterprise handle themselves - especially those struggling to get ahead with their careers and what is necessary to do so.

Trivia note: again, Riker and Troi work together on the crew evaluation reports (the last time they did so was 3 months ago). We also find out that the Ten Forward waiters are civilians not Starfleet. The 4 young crewmembers are seen playing poker, at the same time as the senior officers. And, Ambassador Spock is also mentioned.
