Well Riker's sure got some lingering feelings. I guess this episode about that going both ways between him and Troi.

So if the thing with Ensign Keller actually happened does that mean Riker actually raped Troi?

This expressive background actor is kind of stealing the show (and also read his one line with charisma and a little exaggeration). I wonder if any of the other actors were annoyed by it.

I swear I remember other 90s shows using this exact same combination of first person, closeups, fisheye and moving shots to make a "psychologically disturbing" effect

Riker of all characters is shown repeatedly being obsessed with consent. I took that scene as being a memory of a consensual encounter being corrupted by the intrusion.

Still not sure if the son is framing the father, or the father used the son's face to cover his tracks. But probably the former unless there's a big twist

The dad explicitly called it rape, so this and the episode Alan Moore wrote make two times Troi was raped onscreen, unless there's one I'm forgetting. Anyway they did a good job making the episode disturbing even if it was overdone by modern standards.

Alan Moore wrote an episode of TNG? That can't be right. The only other...er, rape episode that comes to mind was "The Child," and that wasn't written by him. Which one are you referring to?

It's a shame the one camera stand they had was broken. Half the show was shot with the camera flopped over at a 20 degree angle.
