This passage was extremely dangerous because contact between the two continua would theoretically result in the total annihilation of both universes. Lazarus was mentally unstable and exhibited symptoms of severe paranoia. He believed that his alternate self from the other universe wanted to kill him. Fortunately, the alternate Lazarus was more stable, and sacrificed himself to trap the insane Lazarus in the interdimensional corridor. As a result, both universes were made safe, but both Lazaruses are at each other’s throats for eternity. (“The Alternative Factor” [TOS]). The episode’s script referred to him as Lazarus-A (the madman from our universe) and Lazarus-B (his sane twin from the antimatter universe). Robert Brown was a last-minute replacement for actor John Barrymore, Jr., who didn’t show up for the first day’s shooting of the episode.

Leeta seemed attracted to Dr. Julian Bashir. Julian was definitely receptive to her attentions. (“Explorers” [DS9]). As an adjunct to her job, Leeta became something of an amateur sociologist, well versed in such cultures as the Trill. Leeta’s knowledge was useful when she participated in Jadzia Dax’s zhian’tara. (“Facets” [DS9]). Leeta and Julian Bashir became romantically involved, but later went to Risa in 2373 to perform the Bajoran Rite of Separation. Leeta was attracted to Rom, whom she thought was cute and very sexy. (“Let He Who Is Without Sin…” [DS9]). She almost left Deep Space 9 to take a position managing a cafe on Jupiter Station until Rom gave her a good reason to stay when he found the courage to profess his love to her. (“Doctor Bashir, I Presume?” [DS9]).
~1:[2,#B],10:[3,#B]@1Lefler’s Laws@2A series of 102 colloquialisms collected by Ensign Robin Lefler. She said her laws were her way of remembering essential information.

Lefler befriended Wesley Crusher, who visited the Enterprise -D during that mission, and the two were instrumental in helping the crew repel an attempted takeover by a Ktarian operative. SEE: Jol, Etana; Ktarian game. Lefler was the child of two Starfleet plasma specialists. She traveled a great deal as a child, and made few friends her own age. She would later recall thinking of her tricorder as her first friend. (“The Game” [TNG]). SEE: Lefler’s Laws.

Sarek began talks with the Legarans in 2273, but it took nearly a century until the protocol-conscious Legarans agreed to a treaty. The final negotiations took place aboard the Enterprise -D in orbit above Legara IV. Preparations for those talks were extensive, and included the construction of a special pool filled with a viscous fluid for the Legarans’ comfort. Federation authorities expected the benefits of relations with the Legarans to be incalculable. (“Sarek” [TNG]). SEE: Bendii Syndrome. We never did see the Legarans in that episode, although one might wonder what a creature that lives in a mud bath would look like.

Research scientist, and one of nine surviving eyewitnesses to the massacre of some 4,000 colonists at Tarsus IV by Kodos the Executioner, aka Anton Karidian. Leighton was killed in 2266 by Kodos’s daughter, Lenore Karidian, who had been systematically murdering all those who could identify her father as being responsible for the massacre. Leighton had been horribly disfigured at Tarsus IV, and had begun to suspect actor Anton Karidian of being Kodos after seeing a performance by Karidian on Planet Q. (“The Conscience of the King” [TOS]).

In 2362, Leijten, then a lieutenant, along with La Forge and three others, beamed down to Tarchannen III to investigate the Federation outpost there. It was later revealed that all five away-team members were infected by an alien DNA strand that compelled them all to return to Tarchannen III five years later. This alien DNA transformed three of the former Victory crew members into Tarchannen life-forms, a fate that Leijten and La Forge only narrowly escaped. (“Identity Crisis” [TNG]).

Assistant colony director Tristan Adams used Lethe as an example of the success of his experimental neural neutralizer device, but her blank, expressionless demeanor suggested that the neutralizer was erasing more than her criminal tendencies.

~1:[1,#B],27:[2,#B]@1Lethean@2Humanoid species. Letheans are able to attack an opponent by giving a severe, usually fatal, telepathic shock.

~1:[3,#B]@1level-4 neurographic scan@2Highly detailed neural study. Much more thorough than a normal neural scan, a level-4 was intended to detect even very slight defects. (“All Good Things…” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],29:[3,#B],33:[1,#B]@1Levinius V@2Planet whose population suffered mass insanity in 2067, caused by the Denevan neural parasites. The parasites had come from the Beta Portolan system, then proceeded to Theta Cygni XII. SEE: Deneva. (“Operation—Annihilate!” [TOS]).
~1:[2,#B],19:[2,#I],21:[3,#B]@1Levodian flu@2Viral disease. Levodian flu normally lasts 29 hours. Symptoms include sneezing and a runny nose. The U.S.S. Voyager’s Emergency Medical Hologram once programmed himself with a holographic simulation of the Levodian flu. He hoped that the experience would help him better relate to organic patients.
