An Enterprise crew member whose holodeck date with Geordi La Forge goes awkwardly wrong in Booby Trap, and who warms to him when his confidence grows in Transfigurations.
Christy Henshaw is a young woman serving aboard the Enterprise in 2366. She appears in two third-season episodes, Booby Trap and Transfigurations.
In Booby Trap, Geordi La Forge takes her to a holodeck beach complete with a strolling violinist. The elaborate staging only makes her uncomfortable, and she tells him as kindly as she can that she does not think of him in that way. The rebuff leaves him wondering why he is at ease with engines but not with women.
In Transfigurations La Forge is still tongue-tied around her until contact with the amnesiac alien known as John Doe gives him a new assurance. He approaches her in Ten Forward and this time the two get on well.
