Been far too many moons since I’ve seen the episode, does he actually make this request like this? Frankly, most of tng is a blur for me, like most things I watched in the beforefore times when the COVID brain fog had not taken me yet.
DATA: I have a personal favor to ask.
I considered Commander La Forge to be my best friend. I feel it is my responsibility to plan and conduct the memorial service. May I have your permission to do so?
PICARD: Permission granted. Make whatever arrangements you find appropriate.
