Hawking does not play himself in this episode. He plays a holographic representation of Professor Stephen Hawking. Within the fictional context of the episode, Data is no more dealing with the real Stephen Hawking than he is dealing with the real Isaac Newton or the real Albert Einstein -- they are all holograms. {{unsigned-anon|68.172.250.187}}
