Lowest Rated Episode of Series 4
"This eposode grates. The only reason this gets up to a 5 for me is the half of the run time that doesn't feature Counsellor Troi is decent. My biggest problem is Troi resigns as soon as she is in trouble. Aren't Starfleet officers made of sterner stuff? The 'woe is me' narrative might be aiming for empathy, but fails miserably. Picard should have accepted Troi's resignation and dropped her at the nearest starbase...."

According to Michael Piller, making Troi's loss of empathic abilities permanent was strongly considered.
