"Statistical Probabilities" is the 133rd episode of the syndicated American science fiction television series ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'', the ninth episode of the sixth season. Set in the 24th century, the series follows the adventures on ''Deep Space Nine'', a space station located near a stable wormhole between the Alpha and Gamma quadrants of the Milky Way Galaxy. In this episode, Dr. Bashir (Alexander Siddig) attempts to help four fellow augments start becoming useful and productive members of society. ==Background== Parents who allow their children to be genetically manipulated attempt to keep the procedure secret: It is illegal, and augmented human beings are prohibited from joining most professions and may not join Starfleet. However, the problems developed by these four augments forced their parents to seek medical help for them. The four have been institutionalized for most of their lives, and as such are very close to each other, but mistrust outsiders, even their own doctor, Dr. Loews (Jeanetta Arnette). The four augments are: * Jack (Tim Ransom) : Jack is a male in his thirties, perhaps a little older than Bashir. His mental and physical abilities are significantly superior to the average human. However, his great abilities are matched by extreme anxiety, which often manifests itself as paranoia, assertiveness and physical aggression. Likely having Narcissistic personality disorder, he generally feels superior to other people, and as a result has little empathy for the suffering he causes. Because of his proactive nature, he generally feels himself to be the leader of his group of compatriots. * Lauren (Hilary Shepard) : Lauren is a female, almost 40. She is extremely intellectually developed. Displaying attributes of histrionic personality disorder, she is prone to inappropriate sexual behavior, which often manifests itself as her being sure almost all men are madly in love with her. * Patrick (Michael Keenan) : Patrick is a man in his fifties with obvious mental abilities, although he is just as obviously not athletic. However, despite his age and intellect, he has the emotional responses of a child. When something annoys him (such as a minor noise amplified by his genetically improved hearing) he becomes petulant. He is prone to emotional outbursts. When threatened with punishment, he suffers from extreme anxiety. * Sarina Douglas (Faith Salie) : Sarina is a woman in her late twenties who does not communicate, either speaking or writing, although she can understand both. She seems autistic 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Statistical Probabilities」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
