    In this episode, we review the TNG episode 'Datalore' and follow up on a previous discussion about 'Code of Honor’. We talk about the allegations of racism and misogyny in 'Code of Honor' and discuss some people’s reaction on social media. We also share our opinions on blocking and creating echo-chambers. Moving on to 'Datalore,' we critique the episode's writing, plot inconsistencies but praise Brent Spiner's performance as Data and Lore, the production values. We also analyze character development and unanswered questions about Data's origins, concluding howthe episode had potential but ultimately fell short.
