Star Trek: The Next Generation, S02e09 "Measure of a Man" A classic Star Trek courtroom scene, in which Picard argues to defend the rights of the android Data. (4:30 long clip which includes a bit of questioning before the main monologue. Useful for context) https://youtu.be/ol2WP0hc0NY
A very different kind of Star Trek monologue, from Deep Space 9's "In the Pale Moonlight". Captain Sisko does war crimes, and then wrestles with his morality in his personal log. He concludes that he "can live with it". https://youtu.be/K-YyL7X4CWw (2 minute long clip)
In my view, these episodes are some of the best that Star Trek has to offer, but in very different ways. Deep Space 9 has a much darker tone as a series overall than The Next Generation, and that variation is very cool.
