| Dec 10, 2015 at 4:13 | comment | added | Ellesedil | @Zoredache: I don't think so. LaForge is the only one that ended up discovering it, and he didn't discover it until the rest of the senior staff returned to their own time and began formulating what they were going to do about the situation while Picard was still in the past. | |

| Dec 10, 2015 at 1:20 | comment | added | Ellesedil | @Richard: Did they ever try to activate Data's head after they found it? I don't recall them attempting it when watching the episode and I can't find any mention of it in the script. If not, doesn't adding the filing there to prevent preemptive activation seem moot when Picard probably should have known they did not attempt to activate it before the entire senior staff was in the past with him? | |

| Dec 10, 2015 at 1:11 | comment | added | jscs | "For those confused" you can read the series of events at How did Picard send a binary message to Data in the future? | |
| Dec 10, 2015 at 1:01 | comment | added | Valorum | My reading was that it was supposed to prevent Geordi from immediately rebooting Data (which would have been the wrong time), thus forcing him to take the head up to the ship for a diagnostic and thus giving Picard time to travel back through the rift. | |
