Opiate for the man

Dagger of the Mind

Yet another good episode:

  • Again, a really intense opening; in particular, Dr. Van Gelder’s (played superbly by Morgan Woodward) initial psychotic episode in the sick bay.
  • I recognized James Gregory right away, but I’m still not certain what memories are triggering. I watched a lot of Barney Miller as a kid, but Gregory made brief appearances on many of the other shows I watched too (e.g., Love Boat, Wonderful World of Disney, etc.); and then there’s the original Manchurian Candidate, although I was much older when I saw that.
  • The neural neutralizer was like something right out of early Doctor Who, sound effects and all. ;-)
