Whoa whoa whoa. Pulaski pronounced small-d "data" like Data's name in this episode, so it would seem it's how she normally says the word. So when she pronounced his name the other way a few episodes ago, she was going out of her way to say it weird? Again, Pulaski is a dick. | |||
There's so much worry about what to do with the children, but they don't seem to consider many possibilities. The sick people planetside want them away. Picard doesn't want to risk bringing them on the Enterprise without understanding what's spreading the disease. Fine! So set up a temporary shelter elsewhere on the planet for them and beam down necessary supplies. | |||
I guess at this point it hasn't been established that the Federation is pretty strict about genetic engineering of sentients. Really, probably doesn't come up until DS9. But anyway, given those yet-unwritten rules I'm sure they'd have some concerns about fast-growing super-healthy disease-immune telepathic telekinetic children. | |||
Finally a name and a noticeable role for O'Brien. | |||

So the Klingons have records of where exactly the Enterprise was scanning several hours ago, but no records of what was already going on on their hull there at that time and before? | |||

Data has storage capacity of 800 quadrillion bits? I'll probably have microSD cards (or the future equivalent) that hold that much in my lifetime. Doesn't seem very big for a 24th century marvel. On the other hand, it's hard to say what exactly Data means by quadrillion when not even everyone today agrees on what it means. | |||
This episode is really firing on all thrusters... and with nary any firing nor thrusters. "''Your Honor, Starfleet was founded to seek out new life. Well, there it sits!''" | |||
I'm trying to imagine some modern day important precedent-setting case taking about 10 minutes of court time total. | |||
