      Per the Star Trek Omnipedia Riker's penis was asked into the Q Continuum a full two years before Riker himself was asked to join. It said no, it's power was already too great. That's why he frequents Risa regularly to help "drain" some of its energy to keep all females in a light year from it going into something very similar to the Vulcan pon farr.

    At a convention, Spiner said the script simply said, "Data laughs." He was nervous, but was able to pull it off on the first try. The other actors applauded (which he said is unheard of for that cast), and Stewart said, "can you do it again?" - because of the way it was filmed, he would have to do it several times so they could get it from all angles.

    I'd have say this the best series variant of the various Star Trek lines. (Aside from Voyager, but that's a personal preference)
    And one of the best-of several-moments of the entire series. Something a lot of folks don't seem catch in this episode though... After Data is given his sublime experience of mirth, you get a brief glimpse here in the series of his true capacity. "It was a wonderful experience." The fact he can recall and evaluate the experience afterwards, tells you-however subtly, that his design (even with the emotional chipset not installed here) is so impressive, he has the capacity to still appreciate the experience Drama-Q give him.
