[Enterprise1981]

TROI: How did he put it? "As I experience certain sensory input patterns, my mental pathways become accustomed to them. The inputs eventually are anticipated and even missed when absent."

[Enterprise1981]

TROI: Personal inquiry? No, go right ahead.

[BlueStuff]

RIKER: Not at all.
