Why was a Klingon targ aboard the Enterprise during “The Schizoid Man”?












0















At the end of the episode "The Schizoid Man", it is implied that Data wrestled a Klingon targ:




RIKER: Does wrestling with a Klingon targ ring a bell?



PICARD: Mr. Crusher, take us out of orbit.



WESLEY: Aye, sir.



DATA: Did I win?




Why would the Enterprise have a targ aboard? Is it someone's pet? (Worf had a pet targ as a child, but he does not appear with one as an adult.) Is it food? Is it being carried as cargo?

  • I read that as Riker trying to persuade Data of something he likely didn't actually do (remember, Data has no memory of this time period and actually thinks he may have behaved unbecomingly during his being invaded by Graves' personality).
