Story: The Schizoid Man
Written By: Tracy Tormé
Series: Star Trek: The Next Generation
Year: 1989
A dying old scientist, who actually claims to have taught Data’s creator (thus claiming to be Data’s grandfather), transfers his memory cells into Data before his body dies. As a result Data acts unlike Data. People don’t smell it as fast as the audience does, which is one of those annoying things that run rampant in the first season. It is sad that the writers still run into this problem. It isn’t the strongest episode in the world.
However I did like the early scene with Data trying on a beard.
NEXT TIME: Lantree
