Trigger warning: discussion of rape, assault and medical assault.
Becca and Ryan discuss how Star Trek handles the stories of physical and psychic assault on Deanna Troi, Seven of Nine, and T’Pol, with widely varying degrees of success. We look at The Next Generation episode “Violations,” (S5:E12), Voyager episode “Retrospect,” (S4:E17), and Enterprise episode “Fusion,” (S1:E17).
