Riker's Toy Phaser
Compact toy phaser pulled from the pockets of Riker's clothes by Doctor Berel during a tense medical exam in his Malcorian hospital room. Riker claims it belongs to a neighbor's child, but the doctors—Berel, Nilrem, and Tava—spot the contradiction with his no-family story. Berel holds it up as proof, prompting Riker's panic, desperate lunge from bed, and collapse in pain.
