[edit] Revert Reversion
This very brief stub was deleted due to "copyright violations" however I see no violations here or anything that should not be on Wikipedia. Indeed, if this article is a violation then so is every other Star Trek episode summary which is on this site. I alaso point out that the summary to this episode can be found on numerous webpages and websites. There should be no problem with having this on Wikipedia. -Husnock 26 Dec 04
- The anonymous "contributor" in question was copying material from Memory Alpha left and right. You can write your own original summary on the temp page if you want. -- 07:23, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)

- I rewrote the summary in response to your fears. I truely do not see how a two sentence stub can be called a copywright violation. I would recommend looking at "Category:Star Trek episodes" if you feel someone is violating copyrights. If you were this concerned over the summary here, the dozens of other plot summaries might fall under your definition of copyright violations as well. -Husnock 27 Dec 04
[edit] Sexism in Star Trek
Whether Star Trek is sexist is one thing. To use the example of the reactions an android, which is basically a programed machine to make the point is pointless. Besides, Kirk also doubletalked Norman, Nomad and Landru to death. (All "male".) It seems to me Star Trek owes us one more defective female android, but it's silly to keep count. The point was that humans can be very cruel to each other and innocent creations suffered for it. Whether the machine had a female name or male name is irrelavent. One more point, Data's daughter could have just as easily had been his son. The choice of sex was made by the android. The son would have failed as well- it would have been the same android.
