A Gruesome Star Trek: The Next Generation Episode Couldn't Get Past British Censors

In the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episode "Conspiracy" (May 9, 1988), the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise-D find that a mysterious species of intelligent brain parasites has infiltrated Starfleet. The parasites look like pink-shelled stag beetles and enter a host's body through their mouth. Once inside, the parasites completely take over their host's brains, using their bodies like puppets. Multiple higher-ups at Starfleet Command had been taken over, with the queen parasite inhabiting the body of a character named Lieutenant Commander Remmick (Robert Schenkkan).

Luckily, Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Commander Riker (Jonathan Frakes) figure out the conspiracy and use clever disguises to sneak into a secret dinner party attended only by infected officers. (Infected officers prefer to eat live mealworms, hence the dinner party being a closed-doors affair.) Picard and Riker get the drop on everyone, thank goodness, and begin firing their phasers. Everyone is knocked out and the parasites exit their bodies.

In the climax of the episode, our two heroes blast the infected Remmick in the face, blowing his head off. It's fine because he was creepy and his neck was bulging with unseen bugs lurking inside of it. Once his corpse is blasted open, however, the queen parasite then emerges from Remmick's dripping, hollow abdomen, squealing in pain. Picard and Riker blast it to kingdom come. The monsters are killed and the day is saved.

"Conspiracy" is, one might note, doesn't exactly adhere to the usual philosophy of diplomacy and negotiation that "Next Generation" came to be known for. Instead, it's a straight-up alien invasion tale with creepy brain bugs and exploding human heads. Indeed, the exploding human head in "Conspiracy" was considered so gross that the episode was edited down or outright banned from broadcast in England and in Canada.

The censors didn't take kindly to all that glop

It's only a brief scene, but the head explosion is about as gory as "Star Trek" has ever gotten. There's a brief moment during the phaser blasting when the audience can see Remmick's face sans skin, its eyeballs bulging creepily. The head explosion effect was achieved by taking a mold of a human head and packing it with meat, creating a pink, delicious model ripe for explosion. The handmade head was exploded live on set, sending bits of headcheese everywhere. Here's a strange piece of trivia: the human head mold used was actually a mold of Paul Newman's head, left over from an older Paramount production.

Another fun piece of trivia: the bulging in Remmick's neck was achieved by outfitting Schenkkan with an inflatable neck balloon. Tubes led up Schenkkan's back and the balloon was inflated by a tube, blown into by longtime "Star Trek" makeup artist Michael Westmore. Evidently, the scene was hard to film because poor Westmore became dizzy from all the blowing.

Apparently, producers Peter Lauritson and Rick Berman found the exploding head a little disturbing. They thought the flying meat was too gory for a mainstream audience and required a second opinion. Luckily, special effects supervisor Dan Curry had a six-year-old son who was nearby to give commentary. Not only did Curry's son love the exploding head, but he suggested that Paramount immediately manufacture a Remmick action figure with an exploding head function . That was affection enough for Berman and Lauritson to leave it all in.

The Brits felt otherwise

In the 1997 book "Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Continuing Mission" by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens, it's revealed that "Conspiracy" was initially banned from the airwaves by the BBC. When the episode finally did air, on BBC2, the climax was shortened considerably, editing out the on-screen head explosion. It seems that the explosion of the parasite queen was also edited short. For many years, British Trekkies had to find international bootlegs to see the scene in its entirety. One might hope that any young people watching had a similar reaction as Dan Curry's son, and wanted to run out and buy an exploding head action figure right away.

Meanwhile in Canada, "Conspiracy" did air in its complete form, but it was one of the few "Star Trek" episodes to come with a content warning.

The exploding head wasn't bloody, mind you — blood is rarely smiled upon in network TV shows — but it was ... meaty. There is a final scene wherein Remmick's smoldering, hollowed out body sits in a chair with the dead parasite queen drooping into his lap, his feet surrounded by a pile of dead parasites that had been presumably living in his abdomen until a moment ago. Uncharacteristic for "Star Trek," there's no follow-up on the parasites. The episode ends with a mysterious parasite signal being broadcast into deep space, alerting additional brain bugs to a new conflict with humanoids.

That signal was never followed up on in "Star Trek," at least not on-screen. In a series of "Deep Space Nine" tie-in novels, however, it was eventually revealed that the parasites — called Bluegills — are actually a mutated species of the Trill symbionts , seen frequently in the series. If canonical, that would have been quite a twist.

Frequently Asked Questions

via: Pexels / Vanessa Garcia

Do you have Star Trek questions you want to be answered but aren't trivia-related? We've got you covered!

Were these Star Trek terms taken from science or made up for the show?

Part of the show's iconic success is owed to its dedication to science facts. In many ways, Star Trek was right about many things, including their technology and use of general science. This made it a viral winner that was not only entertaining to watch but fascinating as well. Of course, just like the corbomite maneuver, some of it is made up.

Why should I watch Star trek?

Star Trek often gets compared to Star Wars, but this show is Sci-Fi for the non-thinker. If you like space, stories with interesting characters, action, and heart, yes, you should watch it. There are different Star Trek generations to choose from as well.

What is the scariest Star Trek episode? Why?

Of course, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but most people agree that the scariest episode is "Schisms." If you don't remember that one, it's episode 5 from season 6, where everyone lacks sleep. And if insomnia doesn't scare you, there's a lot of suspense in this episode when the crew realizes that aliens have abducted them for an experiment!

On what occasion is the best time to play Star Trek quiz?

Play when you want to have fun and test your memory, or simply when you feel up for a challenge. This, or any of our trivia for that matter, is fun any time. Share a Spock fun fact with a friend and it will have you revisiting your love for the TV shows. Then ask if they can name Captain Kirk's commendations and see if they're a Trekkie just like you.

How To Pick The Best Star Trek Trivia Questions

Making your own ultimate Star Trek quiz can be a lot of fun, but getting the right mix of questions can be tricky. We've taken the hard work out and made it easy for you!

1. Order of Questions Matter

via: Pexels / Markus Spiske

You want your players to enjoy themselves. You can do this by making them go on a rollercoaster ride with the difficulty levels of the questions. Order them in a way that doesn't put too many hard questions together. Give players a win now and then. You can also group specific series or movie questions, like ask a few Star Trek II questions in a row to get the momentum rolling.

2. Test Their Behind The Scenes Knowledge

via: Unsplash / KAL VISUALS

The players may know their episodes, but do they know the show's history, the actors in real life, the scandals, things behind the camera? Behind-the-scenes questions are always interesting and add a bit of flair to the game. Likely, someone will learn something new.

3. Add A Visual Round

We haven't exactly done it here, but something that is always fun is pictures! You can search Star Trek online and add a visual round where you show photos of either scenes or characters where players either guess names or episodes or, better yet, which series it's from!

About This Quiz

That's right, it ran for well over half of the year.

And it was friendly fire that got him.

It saw the show as a financial quagmire.

Spock was originally supposed to knock him out but went with the pinch instead.

Her celebrity attracted many women to the idea that they could be involved in the space program.

The lyrics are silly and never appear anywhere ... but he still grabbed the cash.

By the end of the series he was no stranger to the blade.

The staff had to lure the birds out to prevent further interruptions.

Making the ship land on various planets would've been far pricier in terms of production.

The show lasted for three seasons.

But the star dates in the first series are totally arbitrary and made up.

He even had to wear a wig to get the right look until his own hair was long enough.

His support convinced her that she was serving a greater cultural cause for black Americans.

Fortunately the ship was generally in the orientation we're used to seeing.

It's a famous phrase but it never appeared in the show.

He also wrote speeches for the Los Angeles Police Department.

His barbershop churned out a lot of Spock wannabes.

His exact words were, "I suck."

Leonard Nimoy learned the gesture going to synagogue when he was a boy.

It's often used during prayer services.

In one episode you may recognize the barbershop.

And the captain of the ship was Christopher Pike, not Kirk.

His young age was meant to appeal to a more youthful segment of the show's audience.

It smashed a racial boundary in a very visible way.

Shatner refused to let Nimoy get credit for the first interracial kiss.

She was the head of the production company and had the power to do so.

Kirk's yellow shirt meant he was a part of the command team.

His made-up language has become a point of obsession for "Star Trek" fans everywhere.

He was also supposed to have a power-absorbing plate in his torso.

They had to get their bowling fix, even at warp speed.

JetPunk will be down briefly at 8:00PM EST (5:00PM PST, 1:00AM GST). Please finish all quizzes before then.

Star Trek Trivia

There ya go! buck1017 +11 Level 78 Jun 12, 2015 I believe that you misspelled the villain of Star Trek II. I think it's spelled KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAN. There are 13 'A's if I remember correctly. plattitude +4 Level 92 Nov 16, 2015 But Quizmaster is generous, and accepted my spelling of KHAAAAAAAAAAAAN with only 12 As as well. IvanAndonov +1 Level 64 May 22, 2018 This reminds me of when I wrote Riot grrrrl instead of Riot grrrl and they specifically requested the correct spelling, so it wasn't accepted. Not on Jetpunk, another quiz. snix +5 Level 55 Jun 23, 2015 Q is a member of MI6. JamesC79 +1 Level 55 Sep 23, 2022 Ahhh 007 Cyclonus +1 Level 80 Nov 14, 2015 22/22 with almost 4 minutes remaining. Then again, the timing of this quiz was rather coincidental. Over the last couple years, I've been gradually re-watching every episode of every Star Trek series (and every movie), and I just finished last week. So I would probably have had to do some sort of Klingon shame ritual if I had missed a question on this quiz! ecky +5 Level 72 Nov 16, 2015 The Kardashians....a race that annoys all of mankind LarryLovage +4 Level 55 Nov 16, 2015 Yes! Well done for accepting Kardashians! kalbahamut +5 Level 82 May 22, 2018 Khan-ye West and Kim Cardassian smartcookie17 +3 Level 45 Apr 3, 2016 I couldn't remember that Riker played the trombone, but I COULD remember that he couldn't properly play 'Nightbird'... I remember the weirdest things. ander217 +1 Level 75 May 22, 2018 I was looking for a comment from you, our resident Trekkie. I figured you would score 100%. Live long and prosper, anyway. komradtombstone +1 Level 57 May 24, 2018 I tried saxophone and trumpet first if it makes you feel any better, haha. PantsLobbyist +1 Level 96 Jul 27, 2017 Please accept "Cardassian" without the "S." Yanni47 +1 Level 77 Aug 26, 2018 How is that supposed to work - Cardaian? Might as well accept Cardigan then. Before you know it, the word becomes totally unrecognizable. JamesC79 +1 Level 55 Feb 23, 2018 Thrusters should also be acceptable to sub warp speed. Impukse is faster but thrusters are different jonf +1 Level 70 May 22, 2018 100% I would have done much worse if you asked a few more about the original series. kenpo17 +1 Level 66 May 22, 2018 This seems like a good chance to plug my own Star Trek quizzes. They aren't for points (unless Quizmaster would like to change that... please?), but you can test your knowledge of the cast of The Original Series , The Next Generation , and Deep Space 9 . Give them a try! You know you want to. Walacama +2 Level 81 May 22, 2018 Please accept "Reading Rainbow Guy." kalbahamut +1 Level 82 May 25, 2018 Is there something offensive about referencing the most famous role he ever played, at least pre-Star Trek? Because my comment doing that (and nothing else) was deleted. JB89 +1 Level 29 Feb 5, 2020 Pretty sure that on the “Enterprise” series, impulse drive was still referred to as sub-light. scherre +1 Level 55 Mar 7, 2020 I don't know that 'organisation' is quite the right way to describe the Q Continuum. Unobtainium +1 Level 34 Apr 9, 2024 Organization is defined as "an organized body of people with a particular purpose, especially a business, society, or association".
