Notes
- Colm Meaney appears again as a transporter officer – but we finally get a name for him. He names himself as “O’Brien” here. But no first name yet.
- The model for the Lantree ship in this episode looks an awful lot like the Grissom from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
- The way they reverse the aging is rather similar to the plot of the animated series “The Lorelei Signal“.
