    Strengths
    Marina Sirtisƒ??s
    Performance: This episode
    is a showcase for Marina
    Sirtis (Deanna Troi). She
    delivers a compelling and
    chilling performance as the
    corrupted counselor,
    displaying a confidence,
    cruelty, and sexuality
    rarely seen in the
    character. It provides a
    fascinating, albeit
    temporary, look at Troiƒ??s
    dark side.


    I don't recall seeing this
    one, but any episode alleged
    to have a strong performance
    by Marina Sirtis... well,
    frankly, I don't believe it.

    It?s only slightly less plausible than accusing Gates McMuffin of the same thing.



    Dave, have you seen this?
    These AI summaries are okay,
    but I wish you'd add your own
    notes to them.

    IMO, McFadden is better than Sirtis. This may be partly because Beverly
    usually has less to do, though. They threw A stories at Deanna left and
    right.

    Watch the mechanics of McMuffin going through her scenes sometime. For instance, she?ll start talking before she hits her communicator badge. So
    they have to put in the queen noise while her hand is still in motion
    towards the badge.

    I have never noticed this. I'll watch more closely, next time
    I see her.

    Sirtis has more d‚colletage to carry the acting demands with. ;)
