Synopsis:  Two human cultures (one techy, one Amishy) that separated 300 years ago are brought back together…both wanting some Riker DNA (chica-bow-wow)

Memory Alpha Summary:  Attack of the clones

Review:  Two pretty embarrassing episodes in a row.  I like this one better than Samaritan Snare because the plot isn’t as stupid and it’s occasionally funny, but it’s yet another statement episode (in this case, pro-choice).  Riker, who has matured since season one, slips yet again and decides the best course of diplomacy is nookie.  At least his prize this time is actually human.  Also, the Irish stereotyping goes just a wee too far.

One bright spot is (again) Pulaski, who is developing a strong bond with Worf that will unfortunately only get to last a few more episodes.

Have a good holiday weekend everyone.  I’m moving to my new house on Saturday, and hopefully will have new posts starting Monday.
