[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Wow - almost forget this one was happening. No worries, 'cuz I don't think anyone's expecting any gold here. Still, we might be surprised... -Given the notion of aliens possessing the crew, how many other Trek episodes have featured that? There's more than a few possibilities here. -But out of left field, it's the - wait for it - Organians. But why do it as posessions, and why are they so mean by infecting people with a deadly virus? Being noncorporeal, I guess they can do possiessions too, but since they can manifest as physical people, one wonders if this reference wasn't mostly shoehorned into the episode to meet some writing mandate that some reference to another series in made. It's been the case since "Home", really... -This is the "true" Organian first contact that will eventually lead to the Treaty a century hence. Given their apparent ability to see into the future (or have a really good gut instinct about the future of Human-Klingon relations), I wonder what took 'em so long. ;) -In that case, look for the really really bright and extremely long-taking dissolving effect from the original TOS episode. -And since they're Organians, 500 quatloos says that the virus consumes everyone and kills them all, only to reveal... It was a test. -We're promised that Malcolm, Travis and Hoshi will atually have something to DO this time out (probably whilst being posessed - kinda sad to think that being take over by aliens is the best thing the writers can think of to give them some dialogue). Hopefully however, this means that there may be some background for them that we can report. More wagers? Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
