Notes
- A sequel to the episode “Booby Trap” that features the return of the Leah Brahms character, only this time in real life, not a projection.
- I’m pretty convinced a moment in the opening titles of the show Star Trek: Lower Decks is meant to parody this episode. There’s a picture of that below.
- The events of this episode are recalled by Geordi to Montgomery Scott in the episode “Relics“.
- The first appearance of the redesigned TNG era Jefferies tubes. They had appeared in TNG before (The Hunted), but looked very different. This designed look was used in other starship designs in future Trek shows too.

One about the Ent and the child of a creature the ship accidentally kills, & the appearance of Leah Brahms and Geordi's weird fascination with her. This time not as hologram, but in person. I very much

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek TNG Ep 90 - Galaxy's Child - 11 Mar 1991 2/2 liked the part with Dr Brahms, but the bit with the "child" not so much (which is a minority opinion from what I can tell). Some amusing dialogue in this. I've now passed halfway point in series as this is ep 90 / 178.
