Notes

• Running Decon Gel Scene Appearances: Trip (1), T’Pol (1) – none this episode, although a few were mentioned.
• The Klingon ship is a reuse of the older K’Tinga class model.  There is a whole article about this on Memory Alpha here.
• The first time we see holodeck technology (in universe, obviously not in real life).
• Tucker’s uh “fun” with a female engineer is brought up again in “Oasis“.
• Ah-Len is played by Julianne Christie.  She was (rather recently) Dexa in the Voyager episode “Homestead“.
• Vorok is played by Christopher Darga.  He was also Y’sek in Voyager’s “Think Tank” and a different Klingon (Kaybok) in DS9’s “The Way of the Warrior“.
• Trena’L is played by Randy Oglesby.  He’s also well known for playing Degra in ten episode of Star Trek Enterprise’s third season – the Xindi arc. He was also Kir in Voyager’s “Counterpoint“, the scholar/artist in Riva’s chorus in TNG’s “Loud as a Whisper“, Ah-Kel & Ro-Kel in DS9’s “Vortex“, and Silaran Prin in DS9’s “The Darkness and the Light“.
