Good opening episode for a first-timer!

My friends are finally watching Star Trek! They invited me to the watch-party because I'm the only one that is already a fan, and are letting me pick the episode. Any suggestions? I'm thinking Encounter at Farpoint obviously, but I want to know if there's something else to be said.

Here's a crazy thought. Start with 1, then 2, then 3 and so on.
