1.16 projections

The doctor finds he has been activated and is alone on the ship after a Kaizon attack. But he is not alone – Torres and Janeway are still on board. But tricorders are not recording their life signs. What is going on? Who is the hologram and who is real? And why is Lt Barclay trying to convince the doc to destroy the ship? Incredibly entangled and clever episode – you won’t guess this one. Interesting, too, the way the holodeck is used to reveal the character’s usually hidden feelings and desires. One can only wonder just how many naked-green-skinned-alien-women fantasies James Kirk would have enjoyed had the old Enterprise been fitted with a holodeck.
