M-, m-, m-, mmmmMatt Frewer is the featured guest star, playing Professor Berlinghoff Rasmussen. He shows up in a fancy-looking timepod made of a material even Geordi is impressed by. Rasmussen claims to be there to witness historical events bearing flash drives full of  *gasp* questionnaires! I hate questionnaires. At the same time, the people on Penthara IV may be dying and/or saved by the Enterprise, which gets us into some time quandaries. Each castmember has time with Frewer, but he loves Data a little more than Dr. Crusher. The abduction goes wrong, and they trap Max Headroom as a fish out of time. And never mention him again. Trek fandom turns its lonely eyes to you, Berlinghoff Rasmussen.
