TNG: Where Silence Has Lease

I am almost certain that they dusted off an old Star Trek (1966) original series script for TNG: Where Silence Has Lease. They should have left it in whatever vault it came from.

What’s interesting, too, is that they do this same theme several times. Q is a more clever and interesting version of this encounter with episodes playing on this same lab rat theme. But there’s some other later episode, I believe, where at the end they trap the aliens in a force field of some sort to show them what it’s like.

The episode you’re thinking of is ‘Allegiance’, which is a lot more interesting that ‘Where Silince Has Lease’.

This episode was sooooo Original in feel … i remember getting the exact same impression, that somebody pulled it out of some dilapidated box and blew dust off it before penciling in the names of the characters of TNG …

This one isnt such a bad episode, but now that I think of it, it is reminiscent of the Original Series. Like ‘The Corbomite Maneuver’crossed with ‘The Immunity Syndrome’. But it actually wasn’t a ‘recycled’ one, like ‘Devil’s Due’ was.

All I have to say about this one is that Nagilum is fabulously Original. And I don’t mean that in a good way.

this episode rules because of two-takes’ line at the end:
CPU: does the first officer concur?
TWO-TAKES: i do indeed concur, wholeheartedly
