At the end of that episode Data said that he hoped Maddux would continue his studies and would be happy to help him in the future. Data held no ill-feeling towards Maddux and continued to correspond with him, helping him to understand the positronic brain.

Data’s learning to feel, to care, in ways that humans sometimes share. He speaks of love, of friendship’s glow, in him, I see a human soul grow.

Such a fun episode, getting to hear Data's inner monologue, seeing him interact with everyone and the first appearances of Keiko (and Spot :) are all great but I especially enjoy the line they walk with his "feelings" - he's _right_ about the "Vulcan" ambassador for instance, so doesn't just the act of wishing he had confirmatory instincts kind of confirm _something_ is telling him that something dodgy's occurring ? And his calculation about Picard's response is essentially android for "I know my captain and he's gonna do the right thing" - admiration expressed in percentage terms :).

The Enterprise-D can be thought of as a flying city. It has multiple arboretums, several sickbays (even though the crew always speak as if there's only one), barbers, and bars/lounges, as well as gyms. The replicator room where Worf and Data were choosing a wedding gift is probably the closest thing to a store on board. If you want to know more about the workings of the Enterprise-D, look up Cetacean Ops. There have been minor references to it in some of the episodes, but the point is that the Ent-D has some dolphin crewmembers who act as navigators. Nope, I'm not joking. It's not something that ever appears in TNG, but there are references to it in several episodes and it's in the ship's blueprints.

The cat goes on to have significant importance in future episodes. It's kind of a call back to Sulu's pet plant Beauregard. It was mentioned in TOS that Spock had a pet sehlat. There was an episode in the animated series where we learned it's name was I-Chaya. In Startrek Enterprise, Capt. Archer has a pet beagle named Porthos. Klingons are mentioned to keep pet Targs. They keep them as pets and as food. Pets are recurring theme in Star Trek. There are even a couple of pet tribbles.

A plot point often overlooked in this ep is that Data is prepared to continue helping Maddox, even though he tried to get him disassembled. There is a strong hint she is a spy when she attempts to probe Data for classified info then stops when she finds Data has security protocols too. Keiko O'Brien is a great character, and actress. She is a main character in 3 Body Problem. I REALLY think you would enjoy reacting to that, and would be one of the few reactors to do so. It has REALLY strong scifi writing.

Also at 2:15, "Supervising Producer: Jeri Taylor". Taylor would go on to be the creator and show runner of Star Trek: Voyager, my favorite post TOS/TNG series, starring Kate Mulgrew as Dr Katherine Janeway, Captain and chief scientific investigator of the USS Voyager. Gates McFadden ("Dr Beverley Crusher") is a talented dancer and choreographer. Among her choreography credits are Jim Henson's "The Dark Crystal" (1982) and "Labyrinth" (1986).

Glad to see you watching this one. While not on anybody's top ten lists, episodes like this one and Disaster are some of my faves. While a Data episode on the surface, you learn so much about everybody. Maybe not a GOAT episode, but essential to understanding a lot about our characters.

It took me a while to realize they revealed who T'Pel is, or isn't, earlier in the episode when she called Data to her quarters. A true vulcan would not get nervous and be pacing the floor like she was and I didn't notice that the first couple times seeing it.

Tap dancing Data and Beverly is a huge meme.

Gates McFadden is a dancer and choreographer more than she is an actor.

They used several different cats in the series. They all looked a bit different. When asked about this, the writers said there were several cats onboard the ship, and Data cannot tell them apart.

The original idea for this episode was to show what happens during a single day on the Enterprise. Since they needed the story to focus on one character, the writers naturally picked Data since he doesn't sleep. Incidentally I completely forgot this was the debut of Spot.

Data going to Dr. Crusher to learn how to dance was not by accident. In fact, before Gates McFadden came to the show she was actually a professional choreographer in stage, film and television (as well as being an actress of course). At that time she went by the name Cheryl McFadden.

What I've enjoyed the most about your reaction to this episode, is actually, how much you've enjoyed it. 😀 Oh, and Spot, Data's cat... 😉

You can tell Gates McFadden is a dancer, just from her 'turnout' as she walks and stands. 🙂
