   * **Worf:** *“I am not altogether certain this is a good idea.”*   
   * This sums up the entire episode’s vibe.

   *The Royale* is odd, mildly amusing filler.   
   It’s not *bad* in a painful way — it’s just   
   shallow and forgettable once the novelty wears off.   
   It has a certain B-movie charm for fans who   
   enjoy Trek’s occasional forays into surreal   
   pulp weirdness, but it’s far from essential TNG.
