Cost of Living
To Deanna’s annoyance Lwaxana is about to get married to a man she never met, and to Worf’s annoyance she takes young Alexander to a holoprogram of freethinkers, including a mud bath. In the meantime metallic parasites from a destroyed asteroid are consuming the ship. In a race against time, Data barely gets the ship back to the creatures’ home and beams them away before life support breaks down, leaving him the only crew member conscious. Lwaxana is disappointed about her fiancé Campio who turns out stubborn and boring. When she appears in the traditional Betazoid wedding dress - that is, without any clothes - Campio is horrified and leaves, while she, Deanna, Alexander and even Worf celebrate their victory in the mud bath. summary by Ex-Astris-Scientia
LOL! Kudos to Lwaxana! One of the very few episodes she doesn’t come across really annoying. Well, maybe a little when she assumes the role of a grandmother, spoiling Alexander against her daughter’s best efforts. Then again, she might have been right after all. Kids do need some leeway from time to time and Deanna should have realized that.
Of course, the scene with Worf in the mud bath is priceless!
