"Indeed I am" Mavis said, smiling. "In fact, most people here are."

The way Mavis spoke and moved was uncannily human, without the hum of motors or even a tinny edge to her voice.

Data was enchanted with this news. Though he could not express it, a powerful sense of belonging comes over his positronic brain. He starts asking more questions about Synth life and how they came to be. Who created them? Or did they evolve as organic life does from some electrical anomaly? Where do more of them come from?

As he does and Geordi listens, more Starfleet are getting their things together from the shuttle pads. Enterprise is on an unusual second contact mission, and to the enjoyment of the officers that means anyone on duty today can partake in what is essentially elective shore leave: second contact tourism! Check the equipment and make sure everyone is settling in. And as they do, check out the local restaurants, see the culture sites and museums, try the food, and watch the "televisions" that the galaxy continues to enjoy watching.
