This week, James and Andrew dive into Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 2, Episode 11: "Contagion" — an action-packed installment that stands out as one of the more thrilling chapters in the early TNG saga. The duo unpacks the high-stakes drama surrounding the mysterious destruction of the Yamato, a sister Galaxy-class starship, and the ancient secrets of the mythical Iconians, whose long-rumoured technology turns out to be very real — and very dangerous.From Geordi's dramatic turbolift toss to Picard's historic (but unfulfilled) first request for "Tea. Earl Grey. Hot," this episode offers both intensity and memorable moments. James and Andrew explore how the discovery of an Iconian gateway — capable of instant travel across the galaxy — raises the tension and opens the door to one of the most compelling sci-fi premises in the season. A strong entry in the ebb and flow of Season 2, Contagion mixes mythology, tech paranoia, and classic Trek exploration in all the right ways.
