S04E14 "Clues"
- If the Paxan stun field renders a state of biostasis (or whatever), keeping the guys' beards from growing, then how did that one ensign's daily cell rhythms get offset by a day? Note that this was the evidence that cleared all doubts for Picard that they'd missed a day.
- Where does the term "Paxan" come from? How did Picard know how to use it?
- Why does Troi's voice change? Isn't the alien just using her mind to communicate? Or did it take over her vocal tract too, moving
- Did Troi remember being possessed by the Paxans? I guess she seemed to..?
S04E24 "In Theory"
- If the Enterprise were three lighthours from the class M planet, then why did they say they'd continue scanning (or something) on the way, and why did they have 11 hours to the planet later in the episode? 3 lighthours is like nothing for the ship to travel.
- And why did it take them like 5 minutes to get clear of the nebula??
S05E16 "Ethics"
- Do they not have human subjects boards in the 24th century???
S07E06 "Phantasms"
- At the beginning of the episode the Enterprise is shown leaving Starbase 84. Shortly thereafter they begin testing their new warp drive, which they had installed at the starbase. The drive malfunctions, and the Enterprise is adrift. What's puzzling here is how they got far enough from the starbase to not be able to go back or interact with the base at all once they were adrift, seeing as they couldn't've used warp to get there.
- When they link Data's dreaming to the Holodeck so that Geordi and Picard can observe and interpret the symbolism in his dreams (why not Troi too??), Data disappears when the holodeck link is activated, and Picard and Geordi remain.
- Geordi and Picard are supposed to be able to just observe the dream, but then they appear to be able to interact with it. In fact, they take it over while Data just sits there.
- Why would a positronic subprocessor be able to emit an interphasic pulse. And why would they used Data for this? They wire him to the ship and have the pulse emitted everywhere. This seems to suggest that the ship is capable of emitting this pulse. Couldn't they 've just set the ship to emit this pulse?
