Body Count : Nobody dies during the episode, although Timicin almost certainly dies shortly afterwards.
Factoid : One of the screens in engineering is labelled "composite sensor analysis 4077". This is, of course, a tip of the hat to the series MASH, in which David Ogden Stiers starred.

Also, Michelle Forbes makes her first Star Trek appearence in this episode before returning later on in the series as Ensign Ro Laren.

Quote : "No parent should expect to be paid back for the love they've given their children." - Timicin to Lwaxana.
