The Game TNG Season 5, Episode 6

One of the silliest, and dumbest episodes of the show, and one of the worst examples of the "Wesley save the ship" cliche, as he and his girlfriend are the only ones who don't notice that everyone is acting like drugged out zombies, pushing a weird game on everyone. Even Picard and Worf, no f****** way. And the evil villains plot to try to take over starfleet with a mind controlling game, where it's freaking obvious that victims are being mind controlled, is the dumbest evil plot in TNG. However Wesley's girlfriend played by Ashley Judd is actually a good character and this is a good relationship for Wesley, much better than the muppet shape shifter, so at least the episode has that going for it.
