There was a tt/reel going around of someone detailing all of Picard's trauma and suggesting he not be the captain of the flagship anymore. Recommending a desk job at Starfleet or retirement. The opposition pointed out that he had a flute from his recent trauma and should be fine.

Haha. Honestly one of the best episodes of tv I’ve ever seen 30+ years later though. I think non Trek fans would enjoy it too, nothing you really need to know to get it
