Appendices

Background information

Shinzon's telepathic interaction with Troi through his Viceroy in Star Trek Nemesis was presented in the context of rape, similar to Troi's experience of telepathic memory invasion with the Ullian Jev in "Violations". Troi also experienced something akin to rape in "The Child" where she was impregnated against her will in her sleep.

In DVD commentary, executive producer Rick Berman referred to Picard's transformation into Locutus of Borg as rape.

The taking of the Dax symbiont from Jadzia Dax by the Trill Verad in "Invasive Procedures" was presented in terms similar to rape.

Seven of Nine's recount of her "violation" by Kovin in "Retrospect" was also presented in terms similar to rape.

Tucker's impregnation in "Unexpected" can be considered rape, as he was deceived by Ah'len, the Xyrillian engineer into believing that their form of reproduction was simply a "game" he was being invited to play.

T'Pol's forced mind meld with Tolaris in "Fusion" is described in rape-like terms, particularly when T'Pol contracts a psionic illness as a result in "Stigma".

Some legal definitions of rape include sex under false pretenses, such as Dukat's having sex with Winn Adami while pretending to be a Bajoran in "'Til Death Do Us Part". This concept is not universally recognized, and was not mentioned in the episode. Please see Wikipedia's article on Rape, linked below, for more information about how the term is defined.
