Someone just sent me this image:
And, this one is viral on Facebook and Google+:
Are they from an actual TV episode, or are they Photoshopped images?

3Dangit, you asked "from an actual episode", not "is it real"... I wanted to say the answer was "yes and no"!– IzkataCommented Feb 24, 2012 at 19:06

Real episode. This happened in the episode "Phantasms" (Star Trek: The Next Generation).
In engineering, Data sees dream imagery while he's awake. He sees a 'mouth' on Geordi's neck, and the engineering tool he holds looks like the knife with which he cut the 'cellular-peptide cake'. He hears the telephone ringing again and Riker appears with a straw in his head, ordering Data to "answer it". Data opens his own chest and picks up the telephone receiver.

1If I remember correctly, the phone is seen 2-3 times through the episode?– IzkataCommented Feb 24, 2012 at 19:07

4@Izkata Correct. This particular image comes from a scene where Picard and LaForge investigate Data's dream via the holodeck. Commented Feb 24, 2012 at 19:43

2I think this scene isn't entirely from Star Trek. The last part seems to be a sound effect copied in from another movie.– ErikCommented Oct 31, 2020 at 8:28
