The Greatest Generation

When the Entrepreneur finds a space hole that no ship has ever not seen before, they decide to move closer and end up getting sucked right in. But after things inside aren’t quite what they seem, another god-like alien pushes the Captain to the point of auto-destruct. How is this episode like The Frighteners? Why was A.I. invented? What does Picard enjoy even more than lawyering? It’s the episode that turns the bridge into Fury Road.
