Notes

• Features the return of “The Traveller” from his first appearance in S1’s “Where No Man Has Gone Before“.  He would make one more appearance – in the Season 7 episode “Journey’s End“.
• Gates McFadden did all her own stunts.
• This began life as a B-plot to the episode “Family“, but it was decided to break this out into its own episode.  Glad they did.
• The same starbase model that’s been used since the original movie in some capacity gets re-used again here.  To that, the footage at the starbase was just reused footage from the episode “11001001“.
• A new transporter room debuted in this episode.  I saw a note that it was used for the rest of this series, as well as being in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, as well as the transporter room in Star Trek Voyager. I’m unclear if it’s the same physical set used in all those, or just the layout.
• The Vulcan Doctor Selar is mentioned in this episode. It’s the second time the character was mentioned, but not seen after her lone appearance in “The Schizoid Man“.
