How the fuck does an android get drunk, even on alien molecules?!

Data wasn't drunk, he was infected by something that mimicked drunkenness. So the real question is how could a 'polywater infection' affect humans and androids, and the same way in both? Also, Data wasn't 'intoxicated' (for lack of a better word) until after he slept with Yar, making it far more morally questionable. But Roddenberry was a horndog.

It was the first season, and they were trying to reuse a TOS story to fill out the season. Don't think about it too much...just roll with the drunken android sexy times...
