It's an absolute banger of an episode and Star Trek directorial debut for David Livingston as we watch the Romulans full-out Manchurian Candidate-ing Geordi LaForge. Are Romulans kinda racist? Is this the beginning of "O'Brien must suffer"? How does this episode get "Data" Ex Machina'd? Oh, and watch O'Brien get phasered on... THE HOLODECK!

In this totally, super-Christmasy episode, the holobois watch The Doctor bring the holiday cheer by chopping Socrates in half and freaking Kes out! It's because of his personality subroutines, you see. It DOES inspire Jan and Dylan to watch "THE HOWLING", which is a movie about werewolves starring Robert Picardo. Which would make a great episode on... THE HOLODECK!
