   > While returning to the Enterprise from a trip, Captain Picard, Guinan, Ro   
   Laren, and Ensign Haskell are caught in a bizarre transporter malfunction that   
   interacts with a temporal displacement field. Instead of being killed, they   
   are reverted to the    
   ages of approximately 12 (Picard, Guinan, Ro) and 6   
   (Haskell). Crucially, they retain their adult minds, memories, and   
   personalities, though they struggle to manage their new, small bodies.

   Before I saw "Genesis," this was my choice for Stupidest Episode Ever. Okay,   
   they've been transformed into children, but it's clear that they do have their   
   normal memories and mental capabilities. Why, then, do the rest of the crew   
   treat them condescendingly?   
      
   The bad guys pull a complete O. Henry, giving in even to obviously fake   
   tantrums... as opposed to, say, belting the noisy kid.   
      
   This epsisode reaches what I think of as "Joseph Smith was called a prophet"   
   levels of dumb. South Park fans will understand.
