Trivia:
Marc Alaimo, later to play Gul Dukat in Deep Space Nine, makes an appearance as one of the poker players that Data cleans out. Its his third and final TNG appearance. more
Goofs:
Plot holes: When first talking to Guinan in 1800s San Francisco, Data says that the Enterprise is a starship, even though Samuel Clemens is standing right next to them. It is highly unlikely that Data would have made such a colossal blunder. more
Quotes:
Commander William T. Riker: It's just that our mental pathways have become accustomed to your sensory input patterns.

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

ST:TNG:126 - "Time's Arrow, Part I" (Stardate: 45959.1) - this is the 26th and last episode of the 5th season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

In this beginning part of a 2 part caper, The Enterprise is recalled to Sector 001 again (aka, the planet Earth), because archaeologists discovered evidence that aliens were inhabiting the planet 500 years before (in the 1890s) - the evidence being triolic waves and Data's head (which they deduce it really is his and not Lore's)! The mystery depends when the waves are traced to Devidia II. There, they encounter what seems like human life forms that are a fraction of a second out of phase.

Then, Data is transported via the Devidian's time distortion portal to 1890s San Francisco, where he (as a Frenchmen, and getting money through poker) meets Mark Twain, and more incredibly, Guinan (played by Whoopi Goldberg)!

Trivia note: Data speaks French! And Worf says a rare "Beam me up".
