[edit] Wesley not Picard's son

I removed a comment (which had a "citation needed" placed on it) from the Trivia section. I just watched this episode on the G4 Network (USA) on Friday, March 8, 2007. When Dr. Crusher and Capt. Picard are discussing Wesley's fate on the planet, this conversation takes place:

CRUSHER: What do you intend to do about my son? PICARD: He's being held safely until sundown. CRUSHER: When he faces execution! Althought he's committed no crime, atleast not one any sane orreasonable person would... PICARD: You saw what that thing was about to do. CRUSHER: I apologize sir, but this is very difficult for me. If he were your son, you'd be as frightened ... PICARD: But I am.

This was not a reference to Wesley being his child, but Picard being able to empathize her pain. Dr. Crusher wouldn't have said "If he were your son" if he was.

Anyways. Just FYI. 68.198.34.245 21:09, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

The original trivia never stated that Wesley was Picard's son, rather it was an unsourced statement that supposedly Roddenberry played around with the idea that Wesley would be revealed to be Picard's son in a future episode. This of course, never happened. Cyberia23 04:56, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
