Necessary Evil!

NST: TNG - Dark Page - Season 7, Episode 7
Newbie Star Trek
Dark Page! The episode that inexplicably was not named "Dark Place" despite multiple characters saying "Dark Place" and not "Dark Page." Though I can understand why Star Trek was afraid to compete with Garth Marenghu. In any case, this is the episode famous for featuring Kirsten Dunst and revealing that Deanna had an older sister that passed away when she was just a little babby. But our hosts didn't know that! So how do they respond to such revelations?! Stiff upper lip brit flavour: Or cheeky cockney chap flavour: We have a YouTube Membership and a...
