Season 1 Episode 19
Episode: "Coming of Age"
The Enterprise arrives at the Earth colony Relva VII to give Wesley Crusher an opportunity to undertake his entrance exam for Starfleet Academy. The Enterprise also receives a visit from an old friend of Captain Picard, Admiral Gregory Quinn; shortly upon his arrival however it's apparent that Quinn has more business on his mind than pleasure as he is accompanied by Commander Dexter Remmick from the Inspector General's office so that he can perform an intrusive investigation of corrupt behaviour aboard the Enterprise.
Caught in a turmoil over grades that didn't see him qualify for the entrance exam for Starfleet Academy, Jake Kurland loses his shit and steals himself a shuttle from the Enterprise's shuttlebay having decided to make a run for it rather than face his father with his disappointing news. Once clear of the Enterprise however, Kurland makes a schoolboy error that shuts down the shuutles engines whilst it's in close proximity to Relva VII. With Kurland's destruction imminent, and not many options on the table, it's Captain Picard who grabs this situation by the scruff to save Kurland's life.

Season 1 Episode 12
Episode: The Big Goodbye
Needing a break from his preparations to deliver an official greeting to a race known as the Jarada, Captain Picard tries out a recent upgrade applied to the holodeck in which hell get to assume the role of the private detective Dixon Hill, a charcater that hes been a fan of since childhood. Although Picards experiences in the game start off relatively playfull, the safety of the fantasy turns decidely more dangerous after the Enterprise is intercepted by a long-range probe sent by the Jarada, damaging the holodeck circuitry, locking the players in and more crucially disabling the simulators safety protocols; getting hurt has become decidedly more real.
Dixon Hills [Picard] nemesis Cyrus Redblock visits Hills office with a couple of his guys to obtain the item that Hill was alegedly hired to find. With the holodeck safety routines offline, fellow participant Whalen bleeding to death on the floor and Picard clueless as to what the item even is, both Picard and Data take the plunge and attempt to teach these holograms that their world, their existence and the characters that our heroes appear to be to them is not real. - Yeah it was a tough sell and Redblock wasnt buying.
