Spiner was great, and the episode was original in its subject. It 
was drawn from archeology and myth, which gave it the tie-in with 
Picard and his passion for archeology. The transformation of the 
ship was beautifully done. I don't know why anyone would dislike 
this episode, unless they dislike Spiner, who was its main focus.
