9/10
Despite all the action being on board the Enterprise, a surprisingly good episode.

Warning: Spoilers
When the show begins, the Enterprise goes through what seems like an unstable wormhole in space. However, over time, certain little clues don't add up and it's clear that what Commander Data is telling them about this experience is a lie. This is because all the living beings aboard the ship were knocked out in the experience and all they have is Data's word for it as well as the ship's computer to substantiate what then occurred...but it becomes increasingly clear that this has all been fabricated. SOMETHING happened to the ship and its crew and they were not just unconscious for 30 seconds--it was much, much longer. So why would Data lie and why tamper with the ship's computer system? What is REALLY going on here?

I don't want to give you any more clues about the mystery--suffice to say that it all works very well when the crew eventually unravel the story for themselves. A very interesting plot that is very unique and well worth seeing.
