With The First Link 2.12: The Royale

TNG: SEASON 2, EPISODE 12

Riker, Worf, and Data become trapped in a recreation of “The Royale” a hotel featured in an Earth novel of the same name written in the 21st century. But why is this novel, with its cliché setting and characters, being played out in the frozen layers of a gas giant planet surrounded by debris from an ancient Earth NASA spacecraft!?

Ruthie and Matthew talk about which fictional worlds they would most want to be trapped in and those they would definitely NOT want to be trapped in.
