From the Back Cover

Vacationing on the planet Betazed, Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Troi (Marina Sirtis) are surprised by Troi's mother, Lwaxana (Majel Barrett). They are soon joined by Daimon Tog (Frank Corsentino) a Ferengi desperately in love with Lwaxana. Suddenly Tog activates a beam that seizes Lwaxana, Troi and Riker and transports them back to his ship.

Riker and Troi are imprisoned while Lwaxana is turned over to Farek (Ethan Phillips), a doctor who wishes to study Lwaxana's telepathic powers. Meanwhile, an Away Team travels to Betazed and discovers clues that suggest the Ferengi are behind the abduction. But when Picard (Patrick Stewart) scans radio transmissions for a distress signal, all he receives is interference. Unless a trail can be found, Riker and Troi's hopes of returning to the Enterprise will be lost forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real winner., November 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Star Trek - The Next Generation, Episode 72: Menage A Troi [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This episode is one of the funniest EVER! When Deanna's mother shows up, she creates all KINDS of problems including the whole deal with her calling Deanna "Little One". Funniest scene is at the end, when Picard's reciting Shakespeare to the Ferengi who kidnapped Lwaxana and her...trying to conivce them of his "sincerity"

Lwaxana: I have a new love, Jean-Luc. And you can't keep killing all my lovers, now that simply has to stop.

Ferengi: KILLING?

Lwaxana: Oh, he's insanely jealous.

This one is really great.
