Short # 73 - ST Next Gen 2.6: The Schizoid Man
Update: 2025-09-30
Description
Wherein Justice and Andy hijack the discussion of Ira Graves and his violation of Data's body and mind. In this review of Star Trek: The Next Generation's sixth episode of the second season, we encounter the man described by Dr. Pulaski as "the greatest human mind in the universe." He does not live up to this description. What is the nature of bodily autonomy and does Data have the right to his own body and mind? And how do we account for the godlike levels of tolerance the crew affords Graves? Is to know him to love him? It is not.
