Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn one scene, Data tries lean on the non-existent furniture after his conversation with Captain Picard about being fully functional and ends up falling on the floor. This was not in the script but was added by Brent Spiner on the set. Director Paul Lynch was pleased at Brent's idea and left it in the final cut.
- GoofsThe opening captain's log states they're "running at warp seven" yet the exterior establishing shot shows no stars moving by the Enterprise indicating they're traveling at sub-light velocity.
- Quotes
Lt. Tasha Yar: What I want now is gentleness. And joy... and love. From you, Data; you are fully functional, aren't you?
Lt. Cmdr. Data: Of course, but...
Lt. Tasha Yar: How fully?
Lt. Cmdr. Data: In every way, of course. I am programed in multiple techniques. A broad variety of pleasuring.
Lt. Tasha Yar: Oh! You jewel, that's exactly what I hoped!

Fun and entertaining!
When the majority of the crew are infected with a Psi2000 type virus they all start acting weird and/or jumping into bed with each other! I was a tad irked that such a young show was stealing ideas from it's predecessor at such an early stage but I'm glad to see how wrong I was to be worried! These guys were working well together and we are only on the second episode!! Patrick and Brent are brilliant in this when infected and are genuinely funny. The final solution to their impending jeopardy is a brilliantly conceived idea and gave Wesley a nod at such an early stage of the show. In a nutshell, a fun episode that escapes from all the usual tech babble and just has a little fun!
