Riker: .... I'd like to solve the puzzle ....
THERE ARE FOAM LIGHTS
Cardassian Sajak: ..... That's correct! ... You've won a trip for two to Risa!
Are you sure Riker wouldn't say "there are fuck lights" ? Then wink.
This is why I would have never won anything on Wheel of Fortune .... because I was grasping for an answer and couldn't find one that made sense .... yours is much better.
Cardassian Sajak would have had me executed and given you the prize .... nice one!
I wouldn't even think twice if I heard the name Gul Sajak. That just sounds Cardassian.
"Look, can I get cash in exchange for that second ticket?"
I need this one explaining.
Good explanation of the TNG episode "Chain of Command":
https://screenrant.com/star-trek-tng-there-are-four-lights-why-quote-important/In short, a Cardassian was torturing Picard, and told him to admit (under torture) that there are 5 lights behind him, when there were obviously 4. Picard refused to break. The meme is playing that out with the "four vs five" word on the bottom left.
The raw part of that episode is that he did break in the end, but was rescued before he was forced to admit it.
They handled the truth of torture very well, which is that eventually everyone, even a hardnosed firebrand like Picard, will break.
Stewart really put those acting chops to work in that one.
It's a game where you have to figure out what a mystery phrase is by guessing letters individually. If you guess a letter that is part of the phrase, all instances of that letter are revealed. As the game progresses, the phrase is slowly revealed.
So Picard guessed the letter "R", and they revealed two of them. Picard, assuming that the phrase is "THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS" mentions that they forgot to reveal one of the "R" letters. The person running the game is a Cardassian, and tells Picard that he is wrong, because the phrase is actually "THERE ARE FIVE LIGHTS".
Gamifying torture is brilliant.
That’s great lol
