Data meets Juliana Tainer, former wife of Dr. Noonien Soong and Data's "mother," but she holds a shocking secret that even she doesn't know she carries. "Captain's log, stardate 47410.2. The Atrean government has requested assistance in averting a natural disaster. Two of their geologists have come aboard, one of whom is a Human who has been living on Atrea IV." When the Atreans discover that the core of their homeworld, Atrea IV, is cooling, posing a significant threat to the continued habitabi

She reveals that one thing she and Soong couldn’t possibly have anticipated was that Data didn’t mind being naked, although some of the colonists certainly did as he is anatomically correct. The Soongs asked him to dress, but he didn’t feel it was necessary as he didn’t “suffer from the elements.” With a laugh, Juliana concludes that they had to resort to writing a modesty subroutine just so Data would keep his clothes on.

    Doesn’t Odo lose his *surprising ability for part of the show? I imagine he had to start wearing clothes.

    Edit: *shapeshifting… I feel like autocorrect made the sentence better. I like it and it kind of works so I’m leaving it.
