Holo Leah showed up in a second episode, even if it was just the real Leah findin' her.

Holo Leah was in "Booby Trap", but the real one showed up in "Galaxy's Child". Geordi had a major crush on the holodeck version, and although Geordi thought he had a chance with the real one, he didn't... even botched it. Especially when the real Leah found out Geordi had a holodeck version of her. But he sort of saved the soured relationship in the end. Sadly though, he never got another shot at trying to win her over during the series run. Writers had planned to have him hook up with her later on in one of the movies.

And Holo Leah was also in 'Galaxy's Child', that's how the real Leah found her.

So, Holo Leah was in two episodes, not one.

^ I didn't say Holo Leah was only in "Booby Trap". I had said "when the real Leah found out Geordi had a holodeck version of her," meaning that she appeared in "Galaxy's Child" as well.

In any case, I'm glad she was in more than one episode. I liked that character.

What I'm sayin' is that its one-episode love interests, and Holo Leah was in two episodes, so your entry doesn't go with the theme.

Well, not quite. Geordi had his love interest develop with the Holo Leah in "Booby Trap". And then in "Galaxy's Child", he had no interaction with the Holo Leah... it was the real Leah. They're not quite the same. And in "Galaxy's Child", it was clear that Leah was involved with someone else. The actual love interest was only realized in "Booby Trap"--one episode. Geordi and "real" Leah were at odds with each other for most of "Galaxy's Child".


But if you have some kind of problem with this slight ambiguity, maybe Tom can step in here and make the call about whether or not it qualifies.

@ Gary7 and od0_ital, I think it counts, because Holo Leah was only in the second episode for a few seconds (and she was on pause) while real Leah tore Geordi a new one... there wasn't any interaction at all (IIRC, she replayed her last sentence and that was it?), so the Holo Leah was essentially only in the first episode in any real "love interest" way... I'm gonna allow it. Voting thread will be up in about an hour.

This is why I chose that Random Theme.
