Maybe. But Picard told Anij that he has shore leave coming and plans to return. To me that made it sound its a reasonably accessible planet.
That probably means that you can grow potatoes all year round...
yeah, if you happen to boink the head mistress maybe...
376 days of shore leave coming up in 2376. It probably happened but the writers don't want to reference it, at least not in this episode. From the audience's perspective that was more than 21 years ago and from Picard's it's been 23.
It could still have some medicinal applications like mud baths and mud packing... or if the regenerative capabilities are caused by certain nutrients in the soil, then it could be transferred to the plants grown in it through their roots.
This episode could also have been called, "A Zhat in the Dark".
Apologies.
When Raffi led Agnes to the table and offered her a cake, I had the impression she was going to have it laced with psychoactives and truth serum to get to the bottom of what was really preying on her mind. But no. It was just a cake. And I'm still hungry.
Loved Narek's micro-meltdown as the trace was lost.

If they had the budget Picard should have been living on Baku instead of a vineyard he never wanted to be in anyway. It would have made his leaving more tragic as the irumodic syndrome would affect him the moment he left, and make it feel like his mission was a true sacrifice, rather than "Well, I hate this winemaking business anyway".

If its in the soil it will be present throughout the animal/vegetable food chain on the planet.
Theres two Soong androids on ice too
Exercising great care not to disturb the iron filings in his static memory...
Why they just couldn't "borrow" B-4's head is tragic. It was just stuffed in a drawer like Riker's garlic grinder.
And bad enough Lore is is dissasembled somewhere ....given he's sentient and has rights. What did B4 do to get stuck in a drawer?
If mud baths were really efficient to keep your skin young then gardeners would have the youngest hands of all people...
Oh it all makes sense now! Riker and Troi took their son to the Daystrom Institute to save Thad using B4. Agnes took Thad back, then after killing him told Riker and Troi that Thad was too ill and it was too late and he died. Her act was so convincing even Troi's Betazoid senses were fooled.
I'm sure Donna Murphy would have enjoyed the supporting role on a top streaming series. I've never gotten the impression she didn't like playing Anij in INS and might well have returned to the role if asked. The last I saw her she didn't look much different than she did in 1998 and with a little digital de-aging from the f/x team she could look just like Anij did in 2375.
You need a normal android to cure a normal person. B4 only works for retards.
Or they could cast a younger actress who'd look a lot like her. It's not like they didn't do it before.
The problem when you're aging is not just your skin, it's that a lot of things keep growing like your ears, nose, eyes, etc... it distorts your face and that's why old people look different from what they were earlier. It's not just the skin.
