Iconic Troi flying in space episode.

Warning: Spoilers
This episode has been getting some high reviews on IMDB --- it didn't land well for me. It's a great premise ---- An alien entity is trapped like the enterprise and is using telepathy and some crazy dreams to attempt to communicate a solution to Troi.

I did not feel the unsettlement that the show was trying to get across with the character focused scenes. The acting was fine but it just didn't gel together.

It is ironic that a show about sleep depravation nearly put me to sleep.

I did find the alien entity to be interesting ---- communicating through telepathy/dreams would be an excellent base for a great trek first contact episode.
