Season 1 Episode 10
Episode: "Hide & Q"

Whilst running at high warp to aid an Earth colony in distress, the Enterprise is halted by a visit from Q. Boasting an irreverence for Captain Picard's motivation to complete his rescue mission, Q insists that mission take second place to a mission of his own; to explore how Commander Riker will behave once he has been given the power of the Q.

Facing a little skepticism from his colleages regarding his new abilities, not to mention his behaviour, Riker is presented with an opportunity to demonstrate to each member of the bridge staff that his powers can be applied positively.

We've all fantasised about what we'd wish for if we discovered the genie and this is Riker's chance to deliver on that. Of course the tremendous wisdom that our heroes embody makes it harder for Riker to push his gifts on them than he thought it would.
