Season 1 Episode 13
Episode: "Datalore"
Arguably my favourite story of Season 1. The Enterprise enters the Omicron Theta system for a quick visit to a former Earth colony, also the planet on which Lieutenant Commander Data was discovered. Commander Riker leads an away team down to the long abandoned and largely dead world, picking up on the location where Data was discovered some 26 years prior, the away team locate the hidden advanced cybernetics laboratory, a facility run by Data's creator, Doctor Noonian Soong. The away team find their way into Doctor Soong's lab where the make another startling discovery; another Data-like android disassembled in storage. Naturally we're all eager to see what happens when this android reassembled but unfortunately a can of worms is opened and this android, Lore despite looking, sounding and smelling like Data is actually unstable, ambitious and dangerous. - Data's evil twin!
Data's personal mission to explore a library of human behaviours apparently includes sneezing; still a work in progress.

Season 1 Episode 16
Episode: Too Short a Season
The Enterprise has been ordered to transport Admiral Mark Jameson [a man of 80+ years] to planet Mordan IV to negotiate with dissidents for the release of hostages. Turns out that this crisis was devised and orchestrated by the planets leader Karnas a mere ploy to draw out the retiring Admiral, a man with whom Karnas had been nursing a vandetta against for more than 4 decades. In those years not only had Jameson gotten older, but he had also been struck down by a physically debilitating and incurable condition known as Iversons disease, confining him to a support chair. During the voyage to Mordan IV, the frail old admiral starts exhibiting a curious turnaround in his physical condition, beginning with the reverasal of his illness (thought terminal) swiftly followed by his aging.
Jameson reels off to his wife Anne and Captain Picard the specifics regarding how hes managed to not only shrug off his terminal illness but also reverse his old age. Star Trek TNG The Quest For Youth (Part 1 of 3)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zIKUI9f4msw/mqdefault.jpg)
