Learned something new about Captain's Holiday

[HGN2001]

While watching the episode last night on H&I, I pulled out my phone to check an actor's name, and stumbled on the trivial fact that Michael Dorn played an extra on Risa without his Worf makeup. He's actually the first person to appear at the start of the episode, and later appears sitting in a chair as Vash is stuffing the disc into Picard's robe pocket.

I love discovering trivia like this.

MA hasn't listed that yet, to my knowledge. Checked the episode and actor pages, couldn't find it. Maybe here?

I've always liked that Stewart plays incognito in Data's holodeck The Tempest during the Emergence teaser

 

[Michael]

Can’t say that looks like Michael Dorn to me …

I don't know where this trivia first came from but that is most certainly not Dorn in the first shot of the episode.

Edit: Michael beat me to it, and with pics no less.

 

[NCC-73515]

He kinda looks a lot like him though

 

[Nerys Myk]

Not Dorn is talking to a Vulcan. Not a species I would expect to find on Risa.

Link?

If it is Dorn, there should be confirmation, somewhere.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Other than the hairstyle I'm not seeing much of a resemblance to Dorn.

My mind canon is the Horga'hn or Tox Uthat was the reason for the Temporal Cold War.

Somebody who barely looks like Dorn = new trivia? What?

Somebody who barely looks like Dorn = new trivia? What?

It is pretty trivial.

I doubt that the sex idol probably available on every shop on Risa would set off a war.

Unless it has Picard’s DNA on it…

(Still the toughest crowd on the Internet, I see.)

I found this reference on the IMDb. It's listed in the episode's "Trivia" section.

If this source should be deemed not authentic enough, then somebody go ahead and delete the thread. I thought it was interesting that Dorn was probably hanging around the set when not needed and was either asked, or offered, to play a background extra to make Risa look at least a little populated. It looks enough like Dorn to me. Both times, the actor is wearing the same purple-colored muscle-type shirt.
