Thraiin! Crikey, I'm expecting the kitchen sink. Everything is being thrown in here. Mind you it amounts to a dramatic culmination of events rather than over the top nonsense. It means an added layer of complication and trouble though. Great stuff. Also going back to Jerbin and Isasile at this juncture and for the reveal is just a top notch choice and detail.
The Captain's ordeal is painful enough without it becoming tenfold with the Betazoid in the room with her. It goes to show the brilliance of the crafting to the story and I can only imagine the pain it must cause Deanna herself to know how own part in increasing the suffering. Also to see Riker losing his cool - normally he controls his composure, especially after years of working with Picard - is new and different and means the stakes are high indeed. Obviously, they are when it means his daughter is in possible danger.
