The other two, you ask? Chain of Command (Actually, this probably counts as two episodes, as it is two parts) and The Inner Light.
Together those three make up the best episodes of TNG, and in my opinion (as if the first wasn't my opinion) the best three episodes of any Star Trek series (TNG is so obviously the best of them anyway).
A quick review, for those who may know Trek a little but not know the episode names.
In Darmok Picard is transported to the surface of an alien who only speaks in metaphor.
In Chain of Command Picard is abducted by the Cardassians and interogated for quite a long time, tortured. The famous line from this episode is, "THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!"
In Inner Light Picard lives out an entire lifetime in a moment when he is scanned by an alien probe.
