4 panels, arranged 2x2.

The first panel contains a picture of Jean-Luc Picard holding up a frame containing a number of medals. It has the text “These are your Starfleet merit badges, are they not, Mr. Data?”

The second panel has a picture of Data, with the text “Yes, Captain.”

The third is a close image of the frame containing the medals. The medals take a variety of shapes, but the bottom-left medal resembles the Starfleet insignia. The panel has the text “And this shiny combadge in the lower left?”

The fourth panel is another image of Data, with the text “Communications merit badge, sir.”

    Working the space phone isn’t as anxiety ridden because they have absolutely no social obligations like being polite, saying a greeting, or even saying goodbye before hanging up. It’s like the wild west of communication. Picard has literally muted people and then talked shit while they presumably could still see everyone on their bridge not paying attention to them.
