Jack's Review
This is one of the best Data-centric episodes in the series. The interplay between Data and Ronnie Claire Edwards' Talur is just fantastic and the story is something that would have worked in TOS with Spock - with some modifications to the story, of course. The promotion of Troi to Commander is very fun but it feels a tad too late this deep into the last season. If they had done it a season or two prior it could have led to some interesting and fun episodes with her in command of the ship.
