Galaxy's Child

There is a baby space something attached to the Enterprise, feeding on its energy, and jeopardizing the lives of everyone on the ship. But Geordi has bigger problems: his real life crush just found out about the holographic simulation he made of her! Can they work through their issues and save the ship? Find out when we put Galaxy’s Child in the Mission Log. I promise you … as soon as the iPhone 16S allows you to capture and manipulate someone’s image into a snuggle-bunny … this mistake of fantasy/reality confusion will happen all over the place. This is coming. I do hope Geordi mopped the holodeck afterwards. Sticky floors are a dead giveaway. This is another episode I felt there was a better way to resolve the issue. I thought rather than Leah Brahms being married, which should have been in her Star Fleet record, it would have been better if she would have been a lesbian, which if she had never been married wouldn’t have necessarily been in any personnel file. I agree, and have always felt this way, in fact I sometimes wonder if this was in the original concept and was changed because the show had an aversion to showing gay characters at this point. As you said, her being married does seem like something that should be obvious info, but her sexuality is more personal and not something you’d necessarily disclose. The worst thing about this episode is how it portrays Leah as being wrong for being upset, and worse, being awful because she doesn’t like Geordi. It is horrible when Geordi blames her for not letting him be her friend. This is a perfect example of misogyny. And the ending is just terrible in how she actually apologizes after he has spent the whole episode being creepy. I’m a woman, and I find this episode horribly depressing and creepy. You can probably add “Somebody to Love”, “Jane” and “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” to your cover lineup. The allusion to “Leah” in the other First Contact makes it worse that she not only apologizes for being creeped out by stalker Geordi but eventually ends up with him. Ick. “I’m only going to tell you this, just once. It never happened.” It’s not official, but given that they were supposed to attend the Troi/Riker wedding as a couple, it seems likely that was their intent. One thing is that Geordi has mentioned this to more than one person. Not only did it come up with Reg, but also during the fight with Wes in Sarek. So, knowing Geordi and knowing Leah was coming, it’s a shame nobody took him aside and said, “Hey, don’t be a weirdo with this stranger that you think you’re in love with.” I think his reaction to when he realizes she’s seeing the program (and really, why would he save that) is proof enough that he’s done something wrong. If anything, his anger at her is misplaced anger at himself due to his guilt. On another tack, this is an analogy about fans interacting with celebrities, particularly actors, and the false levels of intimacy that can come from seeing someone in the real world that you’re used to seeing on your TV every week. Geordi really is a drooling fanboy of hers. I’m kinda glad Geordi came back at her. He’s been nothing but nice to her the whole time, and she walked all over him. I feel sorry for the poor guy that married her. Barclay recreated the entire command staff and managed to manage to form genuine frienships with Geordi and Troi. Troi was irritated too, but she didn’t try to roast him. She even stayed friends after he went back to Starfleet and managed to get in touch with Voyager. Leah was just too hostile to get any sympathy from me. Had no idea you were moving, Robert! Safe travels, and glad to be there (virtually) for the ride. Talk soon. I could definitely relate to Geordi, but the part in the Holodeck where he seems to almost physically block her from leaving was really uncomfortable. Does the ship’s computer have access to the crew’s psychological files? So that when Geordi asked it to tweak the Brahm’s hologram with “personality
