However, she will play an important part in a future episode of the series, Future Imperfect. Her personality is such a perfect match to his ideal woman that he has trouble remembering that she is not a real woman.
Riker begins to fall in love with the computer-generated character of Minuet. The other good point is the use of the holo-deck. Watching them work and “chatter” is also played well by the actors. They are written in a way that is very interesting. The main intrigue in the episode is the Bynar species. In their world, everything is black or white – a “1” or a “0”. When questioned as to why they didn’t just ask for help, the Bynars reply that they were afraid of being told “no”. Though sympathetic, Picard and Riker must take the Bynars back to Starbase 74 for a hearing.
Once Picard and Riker begin reloading the information into the Bynar computer, they live again. Since the Bynars are essentially co-dependent on their main computer, they too died. A nearby super-nova caused the Bynar computer to malfunction. All of the Bynars on the ship are dead, and there are no life-signs from the planet. When Picard and Riker make it out of the holo-deck they discover the Enterprise has been abandoned and is orbiting the Bynars home planet. However, Captain Picard and Commander Riker cannot be found. It must be sent out as far away from people as it can get before it is destroyed.
MINUET TNG ANDROID
Meanwhile, the android Data (Brent Spiner), determines that there is a problem with the anti-matter containment field and evacuates the ship. Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) joins them briefly and is also captivated by this “enhancement” to the holo-deck.
MINUET TNG UPGRADE
Commander Riker heads down there to check on that upgrade and while recreating a New Orleans Jazz Club manages to create what he sees as the perfect woman named Minuet. It is like nothing we have seen yet here, but the technological advances make everything in that room seem all too real. The upgrades the Bynars are loading into the computer also include the holo-deck, a place that is essentially a virtual-reality room. They write it off to just being the way another species behaves. Their language when they talk to each other is also incomprehensible.įor some reason, Wesley Crusher (portrayed by Wil Wheaton), the son of the ship’s Doctor, and First Officer Will Riker (portrayed by Jonathan Frakes) are immediately suspicious of the Bynars. This allows them to interface with the computer at great speeds. The Bynars are a species that acts the same was as the binary computer language. The Enterprise checks into Starbase 74 for a routine maintenance and system upgrade at the hands of the Bynars.
