    The actual scene is very funny too.

    SELA: Come in, gentlemen. Take a seat, please. (she continues working on a PADD) Excuse me, I’m just finishing up a speech. For you, Mister Spock. I rather enjoy writing. I don’t get to do it often in this job.

    DATA: Perhaps you would be happier in another job.

    I always remembered TNG as being very stiff. But I’ve been rewatching several episodes with a friend lately, and I was surprised how many subtle jokes are in there.

      They basically just gave two thirds of the cast Spock’s sense of humor.

      I had the same experience when I rewatched it a few years ago. I realized that I missed a lot of wink and nod jokes the first time around.
