Q; How is it that Troi may be revived up to thirty minutes after she's died?
A; I dunno. A Betazoid thing, maybe.
Good to see that the Unnamed Black Chick is keeping up with her Mok'Bara.
Bearing in mind what time period we're in, why is it that senility and other problems associated with old age have not yet been conquered? Riker says that senility could happen to all of them as if it were the most natural thing in the world. These days, yes, but centuries hence?
Alcar says his mum, being 93, had had a long life. See above.
Something odd about the scene in the turbolift with Troi and the young Ensign. When he gets in, he says "Deck 411". Why does the turbolift stop at all, bearing in mind that Troi is already using it? One might conjecture that the turbolift knew where the young Ensign was waiting, knew where he wanted to go, and knew that his destination coincided with Troi's plans. How would it know that, and if it did, why did he announce his destination when he got on? Senseless, this.
Alcar, as he himself explains on the planet, is one mutha of a diplomatic negotiator. So why can't he talk Picard around to his point of view?
Worf is yet again caught napping here. What kind of Security Chief allows himself to be taken by surprise by two armed men? Isn't this the kind of thing he's there to prevent?
Interesting to see that the reversing of the ageing process causes Troi's hair to miraculously be totally redone. She looks like she's had six months in a beauty parlour, not just brought back from beyond the grave. This must, I should think, have been an episode of some interest for Marina Sirtis. She got to play an out and out vamp (and didn't she look lovely) and an old hag too. An interesting week's work, one imagines.
