    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Relics (1992) was initially intended to be filmed in this episode slot, but was pushed forward due to the schedule of guest star James Doohan. Consequently, this episode was written in a rush.
    • Goofs
      When Commander Riker and Counselor Troi exit 10 Forward and get in front of a turbolift, the left door emblem, which designates the deck they're on, shows 08. 10 Forward, by its name, is on deck 10, not 08.
    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Counselor Deanna Troi: Looking back on the past few days, it's as though I'm looking at a holodeck projection... of someone else.

      Commander William T. Riker: That's how it seemed to all of us.

      Counselor Deanna Troi: Thanks for sticking by me.

      Commander William T. Riker: I always will... even when you're old and gray.

    Troi, the last iteration
    This is one of the worst. Troi becomes infested by, not the spirit of a dead woman, but something else entirely. I won't spoil it but what it is makes her extremely sexualized and she becomes horrid to everyone. As the episode goes on it becomes more stupid and yet oddly logically, the connections to Dorian Grey are apt. To a large extent, this episode isn't worth it.
