Plot

The Enterprise travels to Ligon II to obtain a rare vaccine needed to avert a plague on another planet. The Logonian leader kidnaps Tasha as part of the traditions of his planet. Eventually she is forced to fight a battle to the death with the wife of the leader in order to gain her freedom and the vaccine.

Goofs

  • While on the planet, watch Deanna's arms. In the group shots, Deanna's arms are at her sides, while, in the close-ups, her arms are behind her back.
  • During the fight with Yareena, Yar's weapon is on her left hand. However, when Yar beams up with Yareena, the weapon moves to her right hand. I hate to think what else could be rearranged during transport!

Quotes

Lutan: "Your skill impresses me. I like you."

Beverly: "Damn. Where are the callouses us doctors are supposed to grow over our feelings?"
Picard: "Perhaps the good ones never get them."

Riker: "But I warn you, if you get hurt, I'll put you on report, Captain."

Picard: "Have you treated well, Lieutenant?"
Yar: "Fine, Captain, but they're showing some signs of wear."

Lutan: "What do you know of wants and feelings?"
Picard: "Nothing. Well, almost nothing."

LaForge: "Shaving is a human art form, Data. Technological perfection can shave too close."

Data: "Most interesting. Could this be Human Joke Number 663?"
Riker: "Negative, Data. That's a captain's order."

Picard: "I'm sorry, this is becoming a speech."
Troi: "You're the captain, sir. You're entitled."
