    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This is the first time the term tricorder has been used to reference any scanning devices used by the crew. Phlox mentions that Sim took apart his medical tricorder out of curiosity. Until now, the devices had been referred to as "scanners."
    • Goofs
      When discussing the larva, Phlox repeatedly uses the word "larvae" in conjunction with the pronoun "it". "Larvae" is the plural form of the noun. A doctor should know this.
    • Quotes

      Sim: I'm sorry I doubted you, Doc.

      Dr. Phlox: No need to apologize.

      Sim: Yes, there is. You see, I don't just remember Trip's childhood. I remember mine. You made a damned good father.

      Dr. Phlox: You were a damned good son.

    Good episode although a bit too sentimental for me
    Trip Tucker is badly hurt in an engineering accident and Dr Phlox has an idea how to resolve serious problem.

    This episode starts off with a funeral service and the premise of how we get to that point. I have to admit I had reservations thinking the story was going to go a certain way, but to its credit it doesn't go the way I thought.

    There's little I can further say without spoiling the plot, but I'll say it works well for me until the final act which gets a bit overly sentimental for a cold hearted cynic such as myself.

    Themes like sentience and sacrifice that have been done to death in Star Trek are explored in quite a good way here. We also see more of the type of hard decision making where morals are compromised and the complex side of leadership is explored.

    Pretty decent performances all round, particularly Scott Bakula, John Billingsley and Conner Trinneer.
