Goofs
When Dr. Crusher takes a DNA sample from Ishara, she says the test to see if Ishara is related to Tasha will take a few hours. However, other instances of DNA being analysed had nearly instantaneous results.

Quotes
[last lines]
Commander William T. Riker: In all trust, there is the possibility of betrayal. I'm not sure you were... prepared for that.
Lt. Commander Data: Were you prepared, sir?
Commander William T. Riker: I don't think anybody ever is.
Lt. Commander Data: Hm... Then it is better not to trust?
Commander William T. Riker: Without trust, there's no friendship, no closeness. None of the emotional bonds that make us who we are.
Lt. Commander Data: And yet you put yourself at risk.
Commander William T. Riker: Every single time.
Lt. Commander Data: Perhaps I am fortunate, sir, to be spared the emotional consequences.
Commander William T. Riker: Perhaps.

Terminator in Space

So Tasha Yar's sister, looks just like Sarah Connor, gets close to Data, talks about Cybernetics, in a decent episode. But for me was def a rip-off of the Terminator. Or maybe I just have the hots for the Sarah Connor look from Terminator :-)
