Data was in Dr. Crusher's office giving massages to some of her female patients. Counselor Troi walked over to him.

"Hi, Data."

"Hello, Counselor. Would you like a massage?"

"Yes, a foot massage would be nice."

"All right."

She took her boots and socks off and lied down on the bed. He began his massage.

"Counselor, there is something I am troubled about. May I discuss it with you?"

"I'm all ears."

He stared at her. "But you only have two ears!"

She smiled. "That's just an expression, Data! It means I want to listen to you."

"Oh, I comprehend! It concerns Ensign Qoyana Klix."

"You too have been going out quite a bit, lately."

"Yes, we are together a lot. However, I am unsure of my feelings toward her."

"I see. But the very notion of having feelings is something new to you, isn't it?"

"Yes, that is correct."

"Here's an experiment, Data: Think about Qoy. Tell me the thoughts you are having about her."

"All right." He began speaking so fast, it was impossible to comprehend what he was saying!

"Slow down, Data! Just tell me some of your main thoughts."

"I am sorry! She is physically very attractive. She is kind. She is very understanding. When I am with her, I feel physically and mentally drawn to her. It is almost like I belong to her."

She smiled. "Perhaps you are in love with her."

"Do you really think so, Counselor?"

"Yes, I do, Data. And I think Qoy is a very lucky girl!"

"Thank you."

She got up and began putting her socks and shoes on. "I've got to be going now, Data. Thanks for the massage. You can see me in my office whenever you need to talk."

"Thank you. And you can see me whenever you went a massage."

"Thank you, Data."

She left.
