Baldness: A Conversation With Luke

We officially introduced Luke to Star Trek: The Next Generation today. He saw several episodes when he was younger, but it’s been years. I was trying to wait until he was old enough to listen and understand (more of) what was going on. He’s not very good with names (ever, except maybe Pokemon), so I was quizzing him on some of the characters this evening, when….

• Me: So who is the Captain?
• L: I don’t remember his name.
• Me: Describe him.
• L: He was wearing a red suit, and he looks kind of old.
• Me: What about his hair?
• L: What hair?
• Me: The Captain’s hair. Did he have any?
• L: Almost.
