Inheritance (episode)
memory-alpha.fandom.com
Data meets Juliana Tainer, former wife of Dr. Noonien Soong and Data's "mother," but she holds a shocking secret that even she doesn't know she carries. "Captain's log, stardate 47410.2. The Atrean government has requested assistance in averting a natural disaster. Two of their geologists have come aboard, one of whom is a Human who has been living on Atrea IV." When the Atreans discover that the core of their homeworld, Atrea IV, is cooling, posing a significant threat to the continued habitabi

She reveals that one thing she and Soong couldn’t possibly have anticipated was that Data didn’t mind being naked, although some of the colonists certainly did as he is anatomically correct. The Soongs asked him to dress, but he didn’t feel it was necessary as he didn’t “suffer from the elements.” With a laugh, Juliana concludes that they had to resort to writing a modesty subroutine just so Data would keep his clothes on.

    Fionnula Flanagan … one of my favorite Irish actresses, she’s amazing.

    Played in my favorite Irish film … Waking Ned Divine

    I was totally blown away when I realized I had already seen her in TNG years before when I first saw ‘Waking Ned Divine’

      Waking Ned Divine is amazing. I love the movie and it had my favorite version of The Parting Glass on its score.

      I saw that film in the theater and I have to say I remember absolutely nothing about it. I do remember it reminded me of the Welsh comedy, The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill but Came Down a Mountain.

          I haven’t. Thanks. I admit, I haven’t seen a huge number of Irish films, looking at a list of Wikipedia films. I’ve seen some of the big ones like The Commitments, My Left Foot and Michael Collins, but that’s about it.

          Edit: Oh wait, that’s the selkie film. I have seen it.
