2) The Enterprise goes to visit a remote outpost of scientists, who are all perfectly fine.

3) Some of the crew uses the holodeck, and it works properly.

4) The crew of the Enterprise discovers a totally new life-form which later turns out to be a rather well-known old life-form just wearing a funny hat.

5) The crew of the Enterprise is struck by a mysterious plague, for which the only cure can be found in the well-stocked Enterprise sick bay.

13) A major Starfleet emergency breaks out near the Enterprise, but fortunately, some other ships in the area are able to deal with it to everyone's satisfaction.

14) The Enterprise is involved in a bizarre time-warp experience which is in some way unconnected with the late twentieth century.

16) Counselor Troi states something other than the blindingly obvious.

17) The warp engines start playing up a bit, but seem to sort themselves out after a while without any intervention from the boy genius Wesley Crusher.

18) Wesley Crusher gets beaten up by his classmates for being a smarmy goof, and consequently has a go at making some friends of his own age for a change.

19) Spock (or Data) is fired from his high-ranking position for not being able to understand the most basic nuances of about one in three sentences that anyone says to him.
