ST:TNG:11 - "Hide & Q" (Stardate: 41590.5) - this episode is the 11th episode to go into production and the 10th one to air on TV. The teleplay is by Gene Roddenberry himself (the creator of Star Trek) and deals with whether one man can overcome the temptations of limitless power including stopping time which is shown in this episode - of course when it comes to this type of power, Q is involved (this is his second appearance in the series). It also shows that Roddenberry thinks that humans will evolve for sure to the level of the Q given enough time (this is what Q reveals to Riker). This episode also introduces the Q Continuum, the place where Q and his kind come from.
