I’ve barely started S6E9 (literally; just past the opening credits) and I already want to turn off the episode and delete it permanently from my collection.

Hm? Hm? Hm?

    This is the dude that, IMO, proves that Data feels emotion even without the emotion chip. He managed to piss Data off enough that Data would have killed him, had he not been transported right in the same instant he pulled the trigger.

      I disagree. Data’s reaction was logical. It was the only method available to stop him continuing to do evil shit. As soon as Data had the opportunity to handle it in a more legally structured way, he took it.

      Not necessarily felt emotions, but after spending that amount of time with Fajo Data knew he would continue doing the absolute vilest things possible for his own personal benefit up to, and including, remorseless killing of his own underlings. And he’d be able to sleaze his way in and out of justice so there was no moral point to taking him to the law.

      Side note, if you haven’t already you should look up the side-by-sides of him and David Rappaport, the actor originally cast in the Kivas Fajo role who had to be hurriedly recast after Rappaports attempted suicide
