@C0LL1N Probably because earlier in the episode Picard heard the nickname come up and ordered them never to use it again. He slips up here and uses it himself, pretty much making a fool of himself. The reaction is understandable.
This benevolent and encouraging series by the producer Gene Roddenberry got an Emmy for outstanding drama in 1989. Then Roddenberry died, the cast were turned into impulsive idiots, who do manual labor and die violent deaths, and the noobs started to hate TNG for the wrong reasons.
Picard said this because everyone else was calling him Broccoli and that it had caught on. Picard told his crew, "Let's just get that uncaught, shall we?"
@collegeman1988 Exactly. It wasn't great because he said broccoli, it was great because he had just ordered everyone else to stop saying it. Everyone was using it behind his back to insult him and Picard said it right to his face. All the actors did an amazing job in this scene. I loved Riker's shit eating grin.
@Jiiimbooh The icing on the cake here is that Brent Spiner actually mispronounces the word metathesis during his explanation. It's supposed to be meTATHesis, not metaTHEsis.
@SoniasUsername I know, I'm glad so many people appreciate it. Star Trek is one of the funniest shows because you have to wait so long for the good moments, and when they come, they're great.
I love how Data just stops and turns back to his work in the middle of his lecture when Picard gives him that death glare. After a few years with Picard, he's finally learning how to tell when to shut up without having to actually be told to shut up :) I love his development so much...
@bigbossloke Data mispronounced it on purpose, hoping someone would correct him. He later wrote in his diary, "These fucking retarded humans...I'm a Doogie Howser in a Forrest Gump world."
