Star Trek: 10 Times The Ship Was Stolen

Maybe this doesn't count because it is less "stolen" and more "taken for a prize" but the Hirojin certainly had Voyager well in hand when they forced the crew to play out hunting scenarios on the holodeck.
Seven of Nine also stole Voyager for a short while ot bring it into fluidic space.
And in TNG, Reginold Barcley stole the Enterprise under influence of the Cytherians.

Did the Borg ever actually board the NX-01? Well, actually, now that I think about it...Phlox got hit with some Borg nanoprobes, so they did have to be there.

What about Data in ST:TNG "Brothers?" Although, I guess that could be considered more of a hijacking than a theft.

My most hated trope in SciFi is the “stolen ship” trope. Like, can you imagine the level of incompetence it would require to lose ownership of a large naval vessel that you serve on? “Oh look, North Korea has taken control of our Navy cruiser!” And yet so many SciFi shows love the “stolen ship” trope. I don’t care if the crew does recover the ship eventually, they should all be discharged from service for losing their daggum ship.

If Starfleet security was even remotely competent, the show couldn't 'because plot' its way through an hour long episode. You won't find a more useless security officer than Tuvok, we're just lucky the criminals are even dumber than the security officers.

Could make a list if just the enterprises getting nicked and taken over altho alot of tht dose seem to be by her own crew

Kirk stealing the Enterprise from Spacedock

Sybok?
St3 briefly
Barclay in nth degree
The Prometheus in message in a bottle
The hirogen and voyager
Harry mudd and Discovery

I literally randomly watched "One Little Ship" just last night. It was a silly, random, non-serialized romp and still so much fun.

The Binars who stole the Enterprise.
Thomas Riker steals the Defiant
The TOS Enterprise crew stealing their own ship from spacedock.

Discovery was the worst Trek ever. While Enterprise should have had a 5th season to finish the series and got a raw deal in its final episode, Discovery should never have made it past season 1.

You forgot the times the Enterprise NCC-1701 was stolen by members of her own crew, I can think of three once in Strange New Worlds, once in TOS, and once in The Search for Spock

Data made the p@$5w0rd so hard the Enterprise couldn't even get it right

Yes, Starfleet abandoned it, but somehow,some Ferengi wound up with the Stargazer

I thought Lon Suder got short change to be honest. He really only had that two-parter and mailed which of course was when he initially committed and was convicted of his murder, and while I generally stand behind the fact that murderer should be put to death or at a minimum spend their life behind bars without parole, since that is clearly not the perspective in Star Trek, I think it would've been great to explore a more in-depth character growth for him. It's a shame that he experienced significant growth between me and these two episodes to have it ripped away and killed by the end of it. I think it would've been better not to kill him off, but to explore his psychological trauma from having to kill in defense of his ship after fighting so hard to overcome his violent tendencies.

So where was the time when the Defiant was stolen by Thomas Riker??

TOS: "I, Mudd" Norman commandeers the ship, which is then taken over by an android crew (off-screen).
TNG: "Conundrum"... sort-of... the crew's memory is suppressed, allowing a lone infiltrator (MacDuff) to involve ship and crew in an alien conflict
TNG: "Ship in a Bottle"... sort-of, by holographically recreated Prof. Moriarty
TNG: "The Nth Degree" - Reginald Barclay while under Cytherian influence
TNG: "Emergence" - the computer spawns an intelligence which takes over the ship.

Ah yes: 24th century inexcusable incompetency. Virtually impossible in modern times for a fully crewed military ship to be hijacked, yet it occurs with alarming frequency in Star Trek you would be forgiven for mistaking it as a holiday celebration.

Stolen/commandeered ship seems to be a common trope... perhaps because it's easy to set up conflict for some dramatic tension, and can potentially save on production budget (no off-ship sets/locations required). As for Trek tropes, right up there with transporter malfunctions.

Grand Theft Warpo. That sounds like a charge Odo would give someone for stealing or trying to steal a starship at DS9. I could see him stating that.

Guess we're saving Tom Riker & the Defiant for the next list

This video inadvertently brings up a question: ARE there any female Kazon???

There’s also the reverse, “Workforce” where the entire crew is kidnapped, but they leave the ship.

Don't forgot about the time the Borg took over Voyager.

I forgot dude, there is “Star Trek 5 The Final Frontier “ . Where some Vulcan named Sybok stole, or high jacked the Enterprise A . And what when Data stole the Enterprise , so he can see his dear old dad . And brother Lore .And not my two favourite episode , and movie from Star Trek dude . I think you might have make another vid dude .

Ship stolen by TEENS!

No it's not another Gundam series plot, it's Star Trek Prodigy.

I hoped Captain Angel and Sybok would return in season 3.

I'm nominally a cishet male, but Jesse James Keitel makes me feel some kind of way....

The Kazon are basically just poundshop Klingons.

Well the one that I expected you were going to have which was the most unique time. On Star Trek 3 when basically Kirk and the Klingons basically did a ship swap.

"Starship Mine" when they did Die Hard. They weren't technically stealing the Enterprise, just valuable/destructive juice.

Lower deck one was funny

left out Kirk stealing the Enterprise in Star Trek 3, and when the Enterprise D was stolen in 11001001

Voyager: The USS Prometheus

Top 10 Starship Thefts

Borg: Hold my Nanite Beer

I hope the Voyager episode where they keep swapping teleportation is on here..

The worst offender by far is "And The Children Shall Lead..."

The Enterprise gets taken over by literal children. Starfleet Command must have been like "HOW???"

Ok, hear me out. It says 10 TIMES, not 10 EPISODES. I therefore suggest the VHS TNG Interactive Board game, of "Experience Bij!" fame

Worf's winning poker ways, stolen by Section 31, after, "The Emissary," was more profound for the history of the universe, than any little ship being stolen.

I've always hated every single episode where a Starfleet ship was commandeered by a small attacking force. Are these ships not fully manned with trained Starfleet personnel? They all went through basic training and yet not one is able to defend the damn ship? Are there not weapon lockers scattered throughout the ship? Effing useless.

The only exceptions I'll accept are the TNG Bynar episode "11001001" & Baryon Sweep episode "Starship Mine", as the ship was breached by a fake warp core containment field failure or the ship was already abandoned... of which both were docked in a Starfleet controlled facility.

Why do you refer to Captain Angel as "they"? I don't recall the character being established as non-binary.

Cannot wait for the sideburns to get taken off in the 10 More Times iteration!

How was Kirk steeling the Enterprise not even on this list when it should have been number 1.

I need more Cap. Angel...PLEASE!!!!

I surprised the 2-part Voyager episode where the Hirogen brainwashed most of the crew as characters on the holodeck after they seized control of the ship.

I will continue to argue that Star Trek : Into Darkness should not have been a Khan Episode. That & mimicking/inverting the ending from the Wrath of Khan was a very bad decision.
