Man of the People - s6e3

I gotta say, Troi sure knows how to pick 'em! But I blame the writers here. A diplomat comes in hot from an exploding transport ship but it's his mom that steals the show being angry at Troi's existence. Ambassador Alkar forms a bond with her, noting her empathic abilities, before his mom is found dead. Troi and Alkar touch crystals. Then she goes whackadoo: wearing revealing dresses, sleeping with ensigns,  scratching Riker, stabbing Picard, etc. We find out Alkar has got a shit-ton of these receptacles and Picard's not standing for it!
