I can be altruistic. when it suits me.
On which Star Trek TNG (the next generation) episode, does Data gets his emotion chip installed?
It was actually one of the movies: Generations.

The discovery of the chip was shown in one of the TNG episodes - where the away team discovers Dr. Soongs old lab.
The installation of the chip is indeed seen during Generations.
The answer in yedda ("it's in one of the movies) was very superficial and lacking.
the correct aswer turned out to be:
1) Data acquired the chip after dismantling his brother lore on the episode "Descent II".
2) The chip was installed in the movie "Generations"
I thought in "Generations", the emotion chip was fused with his neural net and could not be removed. However in "Insurrection" Geordi mentions that Data didn't take it with him.
