David Rappaport, a well-known British dwarf actor, had originally been cast for the part of Kivas Fajo. Rappaport struggled with depression during his life, and attempted suicide shortly after filming some scenes as Fajo. (Rappaport later died by suicide on 2 May 1990, three days before the airing of this episode) Saul Rubinek was brought in to take over the role and complete the episode.

He's the Third Officer of the ship.

I miss dear David very much. He was a great support and encouragement when I started out as an awkward teen - he always had time for people and was such a lovely & genuinely kind Man. He made me laugh a lot, obviously in "The Young Ones" as the Demon, Ftumch, and in "Time Bandits" but also personally, he had a fantastic sense of humour and would brighten up a room he entered, such a prescence in so small a frame. He was so full of good and always tried to help others, an absolutely beautiful Soul. So sad his demons had their way. A great loss!

Originally, scale sets for Fajo's ship had been considered, made for a person of David Rappaport's small stature. This would have added to his menace as anyone aboard his ship would have had to duck and crawl, but this idea was abandoned for ease of filming. Had the small sets been used the whole episode probably would have had to be thrown out, as getting another actor with dwarfism on a tight schedule probably wouldn't have been possible. I'm deeply saddened to learn that Rappaport did not find peace from his mental illness. I also have depression and want anyone reading this to know that there are caring professionals who can and want to help people suffering from suicidal thoughts. Please don't keep your pain a secret, reach out to friends, family, and medical professionals for help.

Security is demanding. Sure, a lot of time the brig is empty and nothing's going on and you can just read or whatever from your console. But when you do have someone in there, you have to actually pay attention. It is HARD to continuously pay sincere alert attention to something for an entire shift. And you have to do it because the moment you look away or get bored, the prisoners start fiddling with the wall panels to try to get at the mechanisms. And then you have to explain to Picard how the alien went from being in the brig to chewing on the ambassador. Sorry, Captain, I was playing Bejeweled and didn't notice him tampering with the module.

I think that was the episode where Worf's son convinced him to "relax" by joining in on their Holodeck program as the Sheriff of the town. It ends with Worf and "Evil Data" having a high noon shoot out. Data's visage also replaced the can can girl at the saloon, and "she" attempts to seduce him. It was a really silly, but fun episode.

I know Trek fans like like their prosthetics and exotic “alien-ness” of their guest stars.

Major Grin Nah he was playing Galaga (Avengers: Ironman).

ya know... looking at these episodes now really reminds us of QUALITY scifi story telling. more over.. something even way WAY more amazing is when you consider the acting. We tend to forget that these actors ARE indeed acting on a set. Their is no background score playing during their performance, no sounds no bleeps no computer noises, no sounds of the enterprise no phasers nothing. No vfx, no cgi. no displays. They are collectively acting in an environment that does not fully exist and will only later be built around them in Post and editing.

What better way to learn about evil first-hand than from the safety behind a forcefield.

3:44 I knew that was coming, Riker going mad XD

Although it is somewhat similar, I really wish Brent Spiner would have used his Bob Wheeler (Nightcourt) voice in the Western episode.

Force field for the brig seem like a really bad idea. Any disruption to the power systems and your prisoners are set free. Good old fashioned bars work well and don't need power. If you need a continuous barrier at least have bars or in addition to force fields.

On one hand, force fields can restrain non-humanoid life forms that could slip through traditional metal bars. Yet, I get your point. There's no fail safe in the event of a power failure, making escape virtually guaranteed. In reality, a sealed room with 4 walls and force field encasing it would probably be the most effective and logical but for TV drama purposes an invisible force field lends to more dramatic storytelling.

Data has three pips on his uniform in the original footage of the episode, " The Most Toys " with the late David Rappaport.

I realized growing up these “prison cells” missed one vital component. A freaking toilet. In the future do we not need to go to the bathroom? 🤔. Welp in one episode they did have one bathroom problem....

In the brig scene of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, the seat that pops out of the wall when Kirk sits down is the toilet.

The short actor was so much better. Very alien, very Shakespearean, Saul Rubinek came off like a sitcom character.

Replacing an actor with little time to spare for filming didn't give the production team a lot of options. I think the replacement is fine, but yes, I would have preferred to see the episode completed with Rappaport. Sadly, he struggled with depression and attempted suicide during production, leaving the episode incomplete.

Why was Data a full Commander in the scrapped Fajo episode?

I just didn't know there was another version. Thanks a lot for showing!

At 1:58 it seems Data finally got promoted to full commander.

Riker screamed that he wasn't crazy, yet Data acted like he didn't even hear him. Sometimes you have to scream it louder, so people will understand.

To be fair, that wasn't really Data.

So great to see the interleaving of the two different Fajo portrayals. Saul Rubinek did a great job. But I so would have enjoyed seeing David Rappaport portraying Fajo for the whole episode. He was terrific in Time Bandits, really carried the movie. So tragic that he took his own life. If only he could've gotten the help he needed.

I would have been very interested in how that Fajo would have been played. Quite threatening here in a way Rubinek’s Fajo was not. Seems they adjusted the script as well as Spiner’s eyeline.

@@BigGator5 He attempted to kill himself during filming, because of bouts with depression. So they recast him while he (supposedly) sought treatment.

I love the "only an android" quip. Data may not have emotion but there's definitely a gloat/troll subroutine somewhere in there

I think Data did that on purpose. He actually does have emotions but simply couldn't recognize them for what they were until he got his emotion chip. He was also made to be much more mellow and reserved than his brother, Lore.

"I don't feel pleasure. I am *only* an android." Interesting use of the word "only." It lends meaning to that statement which would be absent had "only" been omitted from that sentence. ='[.]'=

the "only" makes it sounds like Data is intentionally referencing Fajo's low opinion of androids as people to drive the irony home, which IMO is more human

Nice compilation! It makes me remember how handsome Brent Spiner was. I couldn't get enough of his charm as a kid.

This has no context and I absolutely loved it.

David Rappaport RIP. So sad to think he ended everything just a day or so after those scenes were shot. He should still be alive today. The human mind is so fragile and these things are not spoken enough half as much as they should.

I knew I recognised that original Fajo. It's Ftumch, the little demon from The Young Ones!

I had no idea. Found this online: David Rappaport, a well-known British dwarf actor, had originally been cast for the part of Kivas Fajo. Rappaport struggled with depression during his life, and attempted suicide shortly after filming some scenes as Fajo. Rappaport later died by suicide on 2 May 1990, three days before the airing of this episode. Saul Rubinek was brought in to take over the role and complete the episode. Select scenes with Rappaport were included in a special In Memoriam reel on disc five of the third-season TNG Blu-ray set.

Nothing against David Rappaport, but I like Saul Rubinek's Fajo better. Rubinek's Fajo has the charisma more in line with an evil manipulative trader. We would never know what Rappaport's Fajo would fully be like, but he seems angrier and extremely unstable. Maybe that was Rappaport's depression coming through, who knows. This just goes to show that two different actors can interpret a character very differently. Casting is very important.

I agree, Rappaport’s death was a sad tragedy, but I don’t feel he was as good in this role as Saul, he just doesn’t feel as natural in the part, but yes maybe that was the depression, I’ve seen him do so much better, he kills it in the Time Bandits as Randall.

I loved the Fajo character, to this day I quote one of his lines in real life. Whenever someone whines about something I’m asking them to do I give them a choice and say, “Well, decide whichever option you dislike the least.” Works almost every time!
