The auctioneers could’ve at least watched the episode. That alone would have improved their appraisal.
- Even family guy mentioned that episode
  
  Well, MacFarlane is an unabashed Trekkie.
- Just searching the episode title would have gone a long way, it's all over lists of top episodes.
$40,000 does seem to be a little low for the only existing cultural item from a civilization that has been completely destroyed.

Also, you'd think they'd include a book or something in their "only one person will ever know we existed" probe.
- I say it should have not gone to picard but in an alternate timeline it went to a borg drone. Immediately assimilated into the entire collective.
  
  Well it took some time, but technically
  
  It's a great episode in terms of characterization and poignancy, but the plot device itself makes no sense. The probe is meant to be used one time and then shut down forever in order to preserve their civilization? At the very least allow it to be used more than once.
- I mean, they included a book or something alright.
Oh great, how many people are gonna go watch that and come back here and start making memes....

I look forward to it
- Good, good.
  
  Edit: had to change gifs 'cause what displayed before posting was apparently not the full gif and made no sense afterwards.

Which valuation is reasonable depends entirely on whether or not it's been cleaned.
- Definitely wants that authentic Picard spittle residue.
  
  He plays it in other episodes, too. I assume it's the same one, no reason for the prop department to make two.
