Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe sound effects for the alien ship were produced by having a stage crew member eat half a large pizza and then sit quietly with dermal microphones taped to his stomach to record the sounds of his digestive process.
- GoofsBefore the star goes supernova, Tin Man hurls the Enterprise 3.8 billion kilometers away. Once they stop, approximately 30 seconds later, they see the star explode on the main viewing screen. From that distance it would take 3½ hours for the light of the explosion to reach them.
- Quotes
[last lines]
Lt. Commander Data: I witnessed something... remarkable. Individually, they were both so...
Counselor Deanna Troi: Wounded. Isolated.
Lt. Commander Data: Yes. But no longer. Through joining... they have been healed. Grief has been transmuted to joy, loneliness to... belonging.
Counselor Deanna Troi: Data? You *do* understand?
Lt. Commander Data: Yes, Counselor. When Tin Man returned me to the Enterprise, I realized... this is where *I* belong.
