Where No One Has Gone Before


Yes, we see minor time phenomena when Picard and other members of the crew vividly experience moments and beings from their pasts, possibly created by their thoughts, but the real import of the episode is the introduction of The Traveler, who among other things is able to alter spacetime and is always on the lookout for promising individuals such as Wesley Crusher. —Michael Main
The Traveler to Picard about Wesley: In such musical geniuses I saw in one of your ship’s libraries—one called Mozart, who as a small child wrote astonishing symphonies, a genius who made music not only to be heard, but seen and felt beyond the understanding, the ability of others. Wesley is such a person, not with music, but with the equally lovely intricacies of time, energy, propulsion, and the instruments of this vessel, which allow all that to be played . . .
Eric Menyuk (as the Traveler) looks knowingly at young Wil Wheaton (as Acting
                Ensign Wesley Crusher).
