“You soured the milk!”
Hmm…Nice catch.
"Yeah, Geordi. I had no luck with women either. "
Scotty and his shuttle… never to be seen again. :eek:
TBH, I would have liked to see more interaction between Scotty and Worf. Could have been some interesting stuff there.
Oh, Scotty is seen again in the Star Trek EU.
There’s a Star Trek New Frontier novel where he ends up on Risa.
Good stuff. And he runs into Robin Lefler’s mom who is bascially an imortable being who was both Nurse Chappel and Number One (from the Pike enterprise).
I am such a geek.

Nothing’s funnier than a dead hooker.
Agreed. Scotty was never too cosy with Klingons.
What Would James T Kirk Do?
Give old Scotty a great big hug.
The End.
We wouldn’t have it any other way.
From Memory Alpha:
Note that La Forge and Scotty are beamed off of the USS Jenolan before it is destroyed, despite the fact that they did not drop the ship’s shields to allow transport beforehand. The Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion mentions this error and that the error wasn’t discovered by the staff until after the episode aired.
It does appear a tad incongruous that, as she never interacted with him anywhere during the final episode, Troi would kiss Scott goodbye. A scene with Troi talking to Scott in his quarters was shot, but deleted from the final episode. Moore explained, “It basically has Troi coming to counsel Scotty, and at first he’s very friendly to her, but then realizes she’s a therapist and gets pissed that Geordi thinks he’s crazy. It was this scene that sent him to Ten Forward to get a drink.” (AOL chat, 1998) The scene appears in the novelization.
Prior to writing this episode, Ron Moore attended the Holodiction Star Trek Convention in Sydney, Australia. He and his party were taken to a nightspot where Ron’s dancing caused him to be labelled “a rager” (Aussie slang at the time for a party animal). They were later taken to the famous Jenolan Caves, which impressed Ron greatly. On returning, he wrote this episode, which contained an “Ensign Rager” (Captain Picard pronounced it “ray-guh”), and the USS Jenolen (sic), a Sydney-class transport.
Interesting. Ron Moore’s dancing? Stick to drinking scotch, Ron.
Once again, Fun Frak. Thanks Badger. Have a good night.
And you too Lady D if you’re still out there. Thanks for joining us.
