Brian Brophy didn’t return?

Brophy originally decided to play Dr. Bruce Maddox because the role offered a chance to have an impact on the Trek universe. And because the TNG Season 2 writers were asked to create a character "who was a hundred times more badass than Data and Riker's chair-mounting capacity combined."

Well, that describes Brophy all right.
 
Riker’s chair mounting was an acting note to Jonathan Frakes by Brian Brophy.

He asked for one after the success of “The Picard Maneuver” among the cast.
 
Brian Brophy wouldn't let Control into Picard. This is why he's not on the show.
 
THE GOOD; THE BAD AND THE BROPHY :D

Did I ever tell you about the time Brophy was in a production of ‘The King and I’? On opening night, Brophy chloroformed the entire cast and slowly eats them in front of the audience for two hours. The production got pretty good reviews.
 
Man next door came round one night
To ask me for a drink
I said i didn't anymore
He said, 'that's what you think'
A tendril curled around his leg
As he got up to leave
He said, 'Maddox came over here
But we called him Brian Brophy'
Brophy
Brophy
They don't come any more confused than me
Better watch out all you space cats
Brophy is a Starfleet man
My EMH came round to stay
The father of my son
He tore apart a stethoscope
And pointed at the sun
'there's tentacles between our worlds,'
He said, 'so i believe'
I said, 'the man next door's best friend
Was making videos with Brophy'
You could have knocked him down with a feather
Brophy lent me a pound
In twentyfour seventy-four
That was a lot of money then
I was extremely poor
We had a party three years later
Brophy wore a skant
He brought an old data pad
And taught me a new chant
Brophy
Brophy
They don't come any more confused than me
Better watch out all you space cats
Brophy is a Starfleet man
I called up Tom Riker
But he wasn't really in
Instead i talked to his wife Trois
About some things she'd seen
Brophy was outside the house
Watching both his feet
We all had dinner with him once
He gave us lots to eat
There's some real people in the world
And some who are pretend
Brophy is making videos
With the man next door's best friend
He's good at playing frisbee
And his teeth are shining bright
I think he comes from Ghulion
If all my facts are right
Brophy
Brophy
They don't come any more confused than me
Better watch out all you space cats
Brophy is a Starfleet man

my apologies to Robyn Hitchcock for stealing "Clean Steve"
 
Wait, this is in reference to Cmdre. Oh's vision. For some reason I keep thinking that's a vision of the ancient past.
