EspañolDARK PAGE
(Redirected from Dark Page (TNG episode))
'Dark Page' is a seventh-season episode. It originally aired on November 1, 1993; Stardate: 47254.1; Production number: 707. In this episode, a psychic breakdown puts Lwaxana Troi in a coma, and Deanna tries to save her life.
This episode features a very young Kirsten Dunst, playing the little girl Hedril.
Lwaxana Troi returns to the Enterprise, this time as the teacher of an alien race learning to speak. Their native form of communication is telepathy, but they want to learn spoken language in order to interact with other races. Lwaxana comes aboard with Maques and his daughter, Hedril. Hedril is a young child and is Lwaxana's star pupil.
The crew begins to notice that Lwaxana doesn't seem to be her normal flamboyant self. She's quiet and almost reserved. Deanna tries to figure out what's going on, and even has her mother examined in sick bay. Dr. Crusher determines that the neurotransmitter used for telepathy is sapped--Lwaxana must refrain from telepathy until it can regenerate.
Deanna volunteers to help Maques and Hedril, but it's clear that Lwaxana is better for the task. She still uses her telepathy occasionally, and soon falls into a coma. Dr. Crusher cannot figure out what is causing it, as the telepathy-chemical depletion would not cause a coma. Deanna, with Maques' help, decides to go into her mother's brain telepathically in an attempt to help her.
Once inside her mother's thoughts, she has to fight Lwaxana's desire to keep a secret. Deanna fights through several obstacles, including a delay tactic in the form of her own deceased father. Finally, after she jumps off into space, she finds her mother and learns that she once had a sister named Kestra, her mother's "precious one". Kestra had died in an accident and Lwaxana blamed herself. Hedril had reminded her of her lost daughter, Kestra.
After confessing to Deanna, Lwaxana awoke from her coma. Mother and daughter have a heartfelt talk about Kestra.
★ As the representation of the area where Kestra died had small streams similar to the ones in the arboretum and Lwaxana slipped into the coma upon seeing Hedril fall into the water, it is possible that Kestra died by drowning.
★ Majel Barrett Roddenberry as Lwaxana Troi
★ Norman Large as Maques
★ Kirsten Dunst as Hedril
★ Amick Byram as Ian Andrew Troi
★ Andreana Wiener as Kestra Troi
