=== Background information ===
Ronald D. Moore considered to be very un-Star Trek. "It really appealed to me on this sort of visceral John Wayne level," he remarked. "There's a monster on the ship, it's after us, and we're gonna hunt it down and kill it. We're not gonna negotiate with it, we're not gonna worry about whether it's sentient, we're not gonna play any of the usual Star Trek games with it. It's just, 'Find and kill the monster.' There was something very pure about that show." ()
Ronald D. Moore commented: "When I first was working on [] in my first draft I used clips from John Wayne movies. I was having Nog watch several different John Wayne movies over the course of the show. He and Vic were going to talk about them. I was trying to reach for some things about bravery and heroism, and fiction and reality, and what it meant to be a hero on the screen, and what it meant to be a hero in real life. Vic was going to talk about Wayne’s dichotomy, that he was this great war hero on film, from a guy that never served a day in uniform. Did that matter? Did it speak to the movies? It was interesting stuff that I really liked, and we never worked it out in the teleplay because getting the clips to John Wayne films were extremely difficult, and very expensive."
