ST:TNG:41 - "Pen Pals" (Stardate: 42695.3) - this is the 15th episode to air in the second season of The Next Generation. While exploring severe geological disturbances beneath Drema Four's surface, Data finds a pen pal on that planet - a girl named Sarjenka (played by a young Nikki Cox).
At the same time, this is also the first time Wesley is given command responsibilities overseeing the planetary mineral surveys, even from those who are much older than him - a great responsibility indeed.
Trivia: you see Picard riding a horse. Oh, while he does this, Troi recalls having a Betazoid kitten once - and her mother and the kitten reacted "badly" to each other!
