Character

Annette

resilient sociable affectionate flirtatious

Annette is a young woman aboard the Enterprise who functions as a peer and social contact of Wesley Crusher. Warm, outgoing, and flirtatious, she invites Wesley to recreational holodeck outings and appears affectionate in public settings like Ten‑Forward. Her role crystallizes when a holodeck malfunction—later linked in the episode to the shipwide nanite crisis—leaves her with a broken leg and prompts Sickbay triage. Her injury humanizes the technical emergency, spurring crew concern and sharpening Beverly Crusher's maternal alarm about Wesley's isolation and responsibilities.
