CRUSHER: If I remember correctly, the last time you graced my Sickbay, you were diving off the Cliffs of Heaven on Sumiko Four. Holodeck programme 47C.

KRISTIN: Same thing. Only that time, I flattened out when I should have tucked.

CRUSHER: Well, as your Doctor, I would like to recommend the Emerald Wading Pool on Cirrus Four. It's a lot safer.

It was my understanding from this dialogue that there was only one such wading pool. Sumiko IV had the more dangerous cliffs, whereas Cirrus IV had the pool, a tamer attraction. --LauraCC (talk) 17:14, August 2, 2017 (UTC)

Going by the dialog heard in Conundrum, yes, that seems to be the implication. But then a display seen in First Contact threw a curve ball - see image on the left. In the script, the names are reversed from what made it on screen, so what has probably happened is that the film crew wanted to throw in a little continuity nod, but only checked with the script.

However, there's no insurmountable obstacle to incorporating both sets of information, no strong reason why we would have to choose which factoid is the correct one. -- Capricorn (talk) 15:26, August 4, 2017 (UTC)

Ah. That explains it. --LauraCC (talk) 17:17, August 4, 2017 (UTC)
