Replace all GOTO statements with Perform

There were alternate opinions of how to move the ship out of the way. Enterprise was without warp drive or impulse drive. Riker's suggestion was to pop open the shuttle bay and let the rush of air jet-propel the ship out of the way. The other option was to use the tractor beam.

Since data had kept seeing the number "3", he went with Riker's option because Riker has three pips on his collar.

I messed up the above link...here is the correct link:

Ed has answered - thanks.

I'll add: previously Riker made his suggestion each time, but Data overrode it each time, leading to catastrophe. Finally, as Ed says, the clue transmitted to the final loop led Data to take Riker's idea.

A GREAT show if you ask me. Someone asked, right?

Oh, now I remember, the question was about GOTO and PERFORM!

hahahahahahaha
