This is the episode where a blue-shirt dies and Picard must inform her child that he is now an orphan. The child takes it well.
Chuck recalls a passage written by Michael Piller from an unpublished book about Insurrection called, "Fade In." Piller describes the constraints writers underwent in Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future, referred to as a "box." Gene thought it was great that humanity would "evolve" to accept death and never be sad of losing a loved one. Chucks spends a little time discussing this. Very informative review. According to Chuck, this is "Ronald D. Moore's first Trek story and so his first story that Gene Roddenberry hated."
Here is a pdf to Michael Piller's unpublished book. http://theologica.verydewarsontherocks. ... FadeIn.pdf
