Line 37:
** Troi, O'Brien and Data were [[Grand Theft Me|bodyjacked]] by noncorporeal beings in "Power Play." They claimed to be survivors of a Starfleet vessel that had crashed on an uncharted world about two hundred years before. {{spoiler|They were actually convicted criminals}}.
* In the ''[[The Outer Limits]]'' episode "Quality of Mercy", Major Stokes and a female cadet are held prisoner on an alien world. She is taken for more experiments and wants just to die. At the climax, we find {{spoiler|the woman is really an alien spy -- and the man just told the aliens humanity's battle plans}}
* In the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' episode "[[Doctor Who/Recap/NS/S1S27/E03 The Unquiet Dead|The Unquiet Dead]]", the Gelth claim to be refugees from the Great Time War who have lost their bodies and only want to use dead humans as Meat Suits. It turns out that there are many more of them than they claimed, and they want to take over all humanity, not just the dead ones.
** The fact that they killed a guy at the start of the episode should've been a clue. How? By possessing a guy's dead mother and having her choke her son.
* ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'': This is how we meet our first Vorta, Eris, as a "prisoner" of the Jem'Hadar.
