REVIEW 2022
26 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
It's noticeable that Deanna hasn't been getting as much air-time as has been the case in previous seasons. Of course, to wake up and find out that you are not who you thought you were, must be something of a shock. That must have been one of the fastest teasers in the entire run.

It has to be said, that Romulans were not necessarily frightening adversaries in an aggressive way but they did have this cunning nastiness which made them cold and untrustworthy. It must be wonderful when you have the authority of the Tal Shia to add studs to the snake-skinned glove, although they did have silly hair-cuts.

I'm surprised that Commander Toreth wasn't thrown into the brig from the outset. As a Romulan, I would expect more loyalty from her.

A well written episode worthy of the higher standards that would soon be set by Deep Space Nine, although the ending here was a bit of an anti-climax. It was certainly one of the strongest stories to-date to revolve around Deanna. It was also noticeable that Miss Troi did get a little drunk on the power-trip position she was forced into, and I found myself wondering if she was really acting at this point. Whichever way we look at it, this was a very different persona from that of the counsellor we all know and love.

This Episodes Clue: Tosk, Goran'Agar (Answer's to all episode clues will appear in the reviews of season seven, episode 25: All Good Things, Part One.)
