Production
Writer Brannon Braga intended for the dilemma faced by the Doctor in this episode to mirror the philosophical work of René Descartes, in particular his famous maxim "Cogito ergo sum" ("I think, therefore I am"). He later stated that the episode was his favorite of all the scripts that he had written for Star Trek: Voyager, and executive producer Michael Piller likewise described it as "a fascinating episode."
