Coming out of the bridge, Princeton’s steering cable unexpectedly snapped, jamming the rudder to starboard and causing the coxswain to lose his point. The Tigers veered sharply into Harvard’s lane, smashing the bow of their boat into the Crimson’s stern...
There's a lot to love about "Cause and Effect." The fetching but elusive Ensign Ro Laren is in it. Generous amounts of drive plasma are vented from the starboard warp nacelle - always good. The writers actually give Dr. Crusher something useful to do for a change, and Kelsey Grammer makes an awesome, beyond-random cameo as the captain of the other ship.

We take off north over the Bronx and as we climb, turn west over the Hudson River to New Jersey and tack south.

"Everybody was laughing and singing." But just after 1 a.m., the Estonia suddenly listed starboard 30°, hurling passengers, vending machines and flowerpots across its passageways. In the bar, almost everyone fell violently against the side of the boat. Härstedt managed to grab on to the iron bar railing and hold on, hanging above everyone else...
