In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "The Passenger," it is a well known and established scientific fact that humanoids use about one one-millionth of their brains, leaving plenty of room for someone's consciousness to hitch a lift, if they had a mind to. A criminal mastermind has done just that on Deep Space Nine. But where is the stowaway? In the security person? Or the other security person? Or the doctor?
