Star Trek: Deep Space Nine1993
[Dr. Bashir has given Melora a treatment enabling her to walk around without motor controls]
Melora:
I don't understand myself. How can I possibly have second thoughts? This would mean real independence. It's everything I ever wished for. But then I start to think about home, and how I will never be able to go back. Well, maybe just for a short visit, but... never *really* go back.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax:
The Little Mermaid.
Melora:
Mermaid?
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax:
It's an Earth fable by Hans Christian Andersen. She trades her magical life under the sea for a pair of legs, to walk on land.
Melora:
Didn't she live happily ever after?
