Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Patrick Stewart candidly reflects on the time he stormed off the set of Star Trek: The Next Generation in his new autobiography, "Making It So: A Memoir.

The Hollywood Reporter shared an excerpt from "Making It So: A Memoir" where Patrick Stewart describes a moment from his early days of playing Captain Jean-Luc Picard when he grew angry with Star Trek: The Next Generation's rambunctious cast. Read the quote below: I could be a severe bastard... My experiences at the Royal Shakespeare Company and the National Theatre had been intense and serious… On the TNG set, I grew angry with the conduct of my peers, and that’s when I called that meeting in which I lectured the cast for goofing off and responded to Denise Crosby’s, ‘We’ve got to have some fun sometimes, Patrick’ comment by saying, ‘We are not here, Denise, to have fun.

In retrospect, everyone, me included, finds this story hilarious. But in the moment, when the cast erupted in hysterics at my pompous declaration, I didn’t handle it well. I didn’t enjoy being laughed at. I stormed off the set and into my trailer, slamming the door.
