ST:TNG, "The First Duty", Episode 519

Decent episode. We're introduced to Boothby, the groundskeeper at Starfleet Academy and one of Picard's mentors. We also see Robert Duncan McNeil (Tom Paris from Voyager) in a supporting role as another cadet.

Wesley gets one of his classmates killed, and all Starfleet does is discredit him for his classes for the last year. Wesley is already younger than most of the cadets, and could probably use another year, in addition to the fact that he's a goddamn genius and retaking classes wouldn't be a punishment, just boring.

Also, this episode has some really great dialog on the part of Picard, and incredibly shitty dialogue for everyone else. At least twice in the episode you have characters saying "You hold on a minute!" then "--No YOU hold on a minute!"
