Coz she didn't want us to see just how far down those 'head ridges' go?

Coz even the doctor would be able to tell that she isn't a patch on 7 of 9?

You want to stare at a blank screen while that scene is played out? No
viewscreen, no view!

That depends on whether the doctor has an amusing 'blush' subroutine built
into his program.

Please state the nature of the medical emergency!
