Looking for a particular episode

Which episode was it where this old guy and his wife are the only two people on the planet and then it turns out that he was alone and had "created" his wife? And I think that was the one where Troi had the music box playing in her head. Also who was the actor who played the old guy?

That would be The Survivors, episode 3x03. One of my all-time favourites.

The old guy was played by John Anderson.

I remember getting really freaked out by that episode when I was younger! Took a while for me to get my head around it

^ It still kinda freaks me out. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of that episode is the music that drove Deanna nuts.

I does manage to be thoroughly creepy, the two of them waltzing all the time, with a whole dead planet around them, while Deanna goes mad, & then the reveal in the finale was rather disturbing as well

I love that episode though

John Anderson was just great in that episode. Re-watched it on SyFy just last week.

Couldn't agree more. Watched it not that long ago myself.

Yea that's the one, Thanks to all who helped me out. It is one of my favorite episodes also.

A few other things I picked up after looking up Mr. Anderson.

His name was Kevin Uxbridge in this episode.

He did a lot of acting, mostly on TV but a few movies too, the foremost of which is Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho." He was a supporting actor, California Charlie, a car salesman.

Best of all, he was the (uncredited) voice of the animatronic Mark Twain in the American Experience at Walt Disney World's Epcot (World Showcase) in Orlando, Florida.

Thanks again!
